Please excuse me for the crappy pics XD it was taken from my phone. Also i didnt post the pics of the asians aros as it was blurry. I highly recommend anybody visiting beijing to go to the beijing aquarium which is located within the beijing zoo.

NasthaAliza: have you been there before? its an awesome aquarium and also its the biggest inland aquarium. there's much more than that but i was interested in only aros and pimas =p but it's really worth going there =).

Kind of sad that the first thing I think of when I saw the tank was what their filter(s) are like haha

 

[CeD_^]

yes really big monsters =P all the aros, id shark, gators are over 3' and the pimas are over 10' long. there used to be more silver aros but now there's only like 20 left.

here is a video of the silver aros pond from 2008. you can see that there's more like 50 silver aros.
