People: how dare they capture this whale shark and force it into captivity.

Aquarium: ok we let it go.

Tennessee Aquarium in Chattanooga isn't as huge as these, but also a great place to visit for those of you in the US.

i lived in japan and they had an aquarium very similar to the one in korea ! there were two whale sharks and i went about three times. it was so beautiful i wish i was a bit older when i went so i could’ve remembered better

[johnchilds]

I have been to AQWA it is a brilliant aquarium, you missed The Deep in the U.K. of this list it’s billed as the worlds only submarium.

[fatmanvidz]

there's never been a sea snake successfully kept in captivity

[andrewmarshall]

I did the guided dive at AQUA in Perth. Highlight was a massive stingray swam right up to me then glided over my head.

[hansgugel]

Glad they let the whale shark go, he just needs so much room to move

[marleyboy]

Wondering if the people of Korea & China are looking at the sea life in curiosity or picturing all of them with a side of wasabi & rice?

[RaeFromTheMoon]

My personal favorite is Georgia aquarium in Atlanta

[hawkeyestegosaurus]

I can safely I will never go to an aquarium, I've heard too many horror stories about how poorly are kept and maintained. Maybe if it needs to be rescued, sure, put in there but I doubt people want to go see the gimpy fish.

I didn't know Okinawa (沖縄) was in Tokyo area...
