Shanghai Public Aquarium (pic heavy)

[Egon]

I just visited the Shanghai China Aquarium. The aquarium favors fresh water monsters and has interesting (live like) exhibits. Some I would love to have as a home "dream" aquarium. My pictures below focus more on the aquariums than the stock. Notice the backgrounds and the "cut from nature" look some of these exhibits have.
Also, they "China" seems to love the aquarium tubes that you walk through to go inside the aquarium. I posted a Dalian China Aquarium thread a couple months ago and it was the same type of aquarium tube exhibit as the Shanghai aquarium...
I'm in some of these pics as a size comparison, There's a couple giant salamanders maybe 3 feet long I'm sitting next to. First time I ever saw one live...

Yeah I got lucky with that pic. It was in a hole in the background and just came out to check me out when I was walking away. One of my favorite fish.
Checking for more pics of it......
