you ever played in the bath as a kid with a glass... and turned it upside down so the mouth was facing the bottom of the bathtub underwater and then raised it above the water level...
the vacuum created inside it stops the water from escaping...
minda like an inverted diving bell
here's a demo to go with the quote above....enjoy!

no its not a vacuum.
thats the logical idea but then there would be no air bubbles allowed up the vertical tank. That would destroy the vacuum at the top. There is actually a pump at the top that pulls the water up constantly. It basically creates a million vacuums a second. I talked to this guy, because I thought the same thing but the bubbles going up made no sense.
ideally you could make a tank like that WITH a vacuum at the top that is about 3 stories tall and the water at the bottom would still hold it all up (because that the specific gravity of water). I think that would be neat.

Placed at the lobby of the Radisson SAS Hotel in Berlin, the 25 meters high AquaDom is the largest cylindrical aquarium ever built. Filled with about 900,000 liters of seawater, it contains some 2600 fish of 56 species.
