Those photos are amazing. I cannot imagine how it would feel to see them in real life. I have never wanted to go there, but I love visiting new places with nice, natural aquarium exhibits. I think that it would be a great site to see. I especially like your close up shots.
Some of those fish have really impressive faces!

hi Glenny,

excellent pictures! I guess you visit Rotterdam (Blijdorp) and Arhem (Burger's Zoo) as well?
It is been too long that we went to Amsterdam.

beautiful fish in aquarium

Post by gargar » Wed Nov 17, 2010 10:11 am

i just visited this aquarium a few days ago and saw the most beautiful little fish ever in one of the small windows. it was blue and had an orange-y design on it. almost looked like a tapestry it was so ornate and beautiful. there were two more little ones in another window. does anyone remember this fish and happen to know the name?
