The Aquarium Berlin in Berlin is one of Germany's largest aquariums. The aquarium was built in 1913 as part of the Berlin Zoological Garden complex.[1] Since its opening the Zoo-Aquarium has been ranked among the public aquariums with the world’s greatest biodiversity.
Exhibits
Over 9,000 animals are presented on three storeys.[2] It contains jellyfish, tropical and native fishes, crocodilians (caimans and gharial), and a broad variety of insects. In addition to its 250 tanks for fish,[1] the aquarium houses a wide variety of amphibians and reptiles including tuataras.[2]
The shark tank presents the blacktip reef shark and other species.[2]
With a total capacity of 25,000 litres (6,600 US gal), twelve basins present different sections through the world of corals. The largest of these basins is the 11-cubic-metre (2,900 US gal) Great Coral Basin with its reproduction lagoon.
