The First area of exhibits is located on the ground floor. In front of the turnstiles can be a little bit late, after admiring the unique placards, the inscriptions on which have been created using falling water drops.

The first offers to watch“Moskvarium”? Feedback from visitors suggests that in the beginning of the exhibition are freshwater fish from Russian rivers and stingrays. You can see them in the original ring the aquarium. Here the fish rapidly swim in a circle, and visitors can watch them not only outside but also inside the ring. This is followed by the pools. In some of these aquatic inhabitants can not only watch but also to touch.

Then those who wish to eat can get up in a cafe called “the Deck”. With its grounds offer splendid views of the floating whales. Of course, the prices in this institution is not low, but to eat and to quench the thirst here is real. To see the whales is not easy. Their appearance still have to wait.

Here right over the head of the visitors slowly float sharks. Next to the aquarium you can either stand or sit on a soft black sofa, made in the form of stones. Reviews of visitors, I want to be here as long as possible. Eyes are fascinating gray predators, floating in large circles. And when the sharks move closer to the glass, getting the creeps from their sharp teeth and fixed eyes. From time to time appear in the aquarium divers. And then the glasses literally stuck to the audience.

Many wonder will be attacked by a shark on people or not. However, it is worth saying that even in the wild the grey predators, usually on the human hunt.

Another Interesting fact is that feeding sharks very rarely. About once every three days, as it happens in natural conditions. Fed predators, divers using special long tweezers. The movement of this device in the water imitates fleeing prey. Only in this case, the sharks will be fed, after all, aristocratic predators will not pick up food from the floor. They used to grab food on the go.
