Melbourne Aquarium Pics

[Thommo]

Just got back from Melbourne Aquarium a few days ago and I though I would share a few pics.
I really had a great day and was really quite impressed with the joint. I have also been to the Sydney Aquarium and I think this 1 kicks its ass.
Happy viewing

The fish bowl. Very impressive. The green sea turtles keep biting the divers and they have to wear helmets as the stingrays bite their heads to get the food

I want one!

Jelly Fish

One ugly looking fish

WOW

Glass Catfish

Australian Billabong

HUGE!!

Part of the Amazonian tank with a few Discus

This one is actually from the Melbourne ZOO. There is supposed to be a water snake in there

CHEERS

I was hoping to see a leafy sea dragon as I believe it is indigenous to your part of the world... Still, looks cool.

Very nice the jellies remind me of those at Scarborough Blue planet.. just thought... @Uk'ers please don't laugh it puts Ellesmere Port Blue Planet to shame!

the one with glass catfish looks remarkably like home aquaria. hmmm

Sorry about the Leafy sea dragon. There was one there but it kept hiding behind a pole so I couldn't get any good pics.

Penguins are so cute. They are on the next pet list.

Thanks all for looking. It is well worth the visit if you are in Melbourne one day.

CHEERS
