Colourful Fishes and Dolphins at SEA Aquarium

During the weekend we went to the S.E.A. Aquarium  at Resort World Sentosa. It was the 2nd time that the kids visited the place. We visited the Aquarium last month but  were not able to view all the exhibits due to the time constrain which we had. This time around we were determined to view as many exhibits as possible.

The first exhibit which we saw was the shipwreck at the entrance of the underwater tunnel. Looking at the artifact it reminded me about the story Treasure Island which I read during my childhood.

We saw many different colourful fishes swimming in the tanks. I love the vibrant yellow of these Angel Fish with their bold black stripes on their bodies.

Circular Tank

There were a few circular two story high fish tank exhibits within the aquarium. It was quite difficult to capture a good shot of the tank as it was simply too wide and it was extremely crowded making it hard to get up and close with the tanks.

Dolphins

The dolphins are the latest attraction at the SEA Aquarium. The exhibit recently opened a few weeks back and the kids were thrilled to see the dolphins swimming happily in the tank.

Vibrant Pink Fish

I don’t know what’s the name of this fish but it was the first time that I was seeing pink fish. Tiger girl was ticked pink to see actual pink fish swimming in the tank. Pink is one of her favourite colours and to have fish in pink was certainly awesome!!

Orange Fishes

If pink is not your color then how about these Orange fishes for your fish tank instead?  I bet these fishes will look luminous at night given their vibrant color.

What type of fishes would you keep at home?

There are many things which one can do  to spend 30 minutes. The task that you choose would determine how fast or slow that 30 minutes would pass by.

Here is my list of Top 10 ways to spend 30 minutes in no particular order.

1. Getting Tiger girl to pose for the camera. In the post above she was mimicking the cow. Apparently she has been reading too much about sea cows as we were at the aquarium.
