Ok so do you mean single aquarium or do you mean building like the shed aquarium with many different setups? Cause they have those 2 mill gallon tune hatch places.

Very large. They showed how they cought the speacies they wanted form a wish list. They even showed how it was transported. Should how they used sand filters and other new stuff. I was the best TLC episode ever. ( I still like Over huale). I think they sell there episodes on there website.

Hey Rocky,

Happy New Year. I think you are right about the tank in Atlanta. My buddy who owns Fish COllection has a 30" Australian BumbleBee Group that he says someone from the aquarium called him in referance to the fish. I believe it is going to be 5 million gallons but I don't know for sure.

I believe the biggest tank right now is the one in Atlantis on Paradise Island in the Bahamas.

Do you mean biggest public aquarium or biggest tank in the world? I think biggest tank is in Japan with 7500 tons that has some manta rays and whale sharks in it. I may be wrong though.

Hey everyone:
I'm going to Europe en 2 weeks and I would like to know if you can recommend me some public aquariums to visit. I've already booked my ticket to the London Aquarium. Anything else I should really visit?
