The aquariums’ granite rock, sand, rock and canoes have been selected and collected in Africa. In addition to colourful fish, visitors can see dwarf croco- diles, sump turtles and the big Nile crocodile.

AMAZONAS The world’s longest river, the Amazon, holds an incred- ible wildlife, which is on display in the large rain forest hall. As well as free- flying birds and butterflies, the rain forest hall has four large aquariums, which can be looked at from both above and beneath to see giga arapaimas, red tailed catfish and a cousin to the piranha, the omnivorous pacu. Europe’s largest colony of 3,000 piranhas, plus a male and female anaconda, inhabit the area close to the great waterfall.
THE COLD WATERS Sea animals from the cold environments around the planet are featured, including a school of herring. l
