Fins to fins, tail to tail

A trip to the s.e.a aquarium, thanks to my dear pal, finally made it there cos of the time limited tix. Have wanted to go on my bday but has postponed it till last wk.

We were indeed brave to go on a saturday. Would be more enjoyable if we had the whole place to ourselves, jus the 4 of us. The glass has the magnifying effect, at certain angle, u can feel quite giddy.

Staring and observing the vertical column, brimming with life. So lively. So real. So happening. So much energy. So cohesive. The corals are thriving. The fishes and other organisms are jus living, breathing, creating bubbles. Jus feel wonderful to see such a harmonious sight, in the h2o behind the glass.

Next to the world's largest acrylic panel. The water is not as clear. The manta ray was obvious, the rest of the other stingrays really all look similar. Cant tell the difference. Tiny fishes were swimming with them, feeding off them. Big clumsy fish stared thru the glass at us, lips against the glass, aa if trying to find a way out of the uber big tank. The smaller ones are totally camouflaged in the unclear water, appearing and disappearing out of sight. Some swim and wandered alone in and out of the window of wreck near the sand, some in shoals.

We also saw a super big octopus in action. Lots of jellyfishes. Dolphins are all time favourites. Amused by the sea dragons which totally look like leaves. And many other species which i never know of their existence. We marched towards the exit with all the sharks, thats where they are. The finale.
