A giant jellyfish During a mission in November 2021, the Doc Ricketts submarine of the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (GOOD) managed to film a giant jellyfish ghost (Stygiomedusa gigantea) at great depths in the Gulf of California. The jellyfish has a bell more than one meter wide and ribs like ribs that can extend over ten meters. In more than a century, only a hundred of these jellyfish have been observed, especially because of the inaccessible depth at which they live.
Aquarium from drawings Developed by the Japanese teamLab, Sketch Aquarium is an aquarium like no other: children are asked to draw a fish or a sea creature of their choice. Once completed, the design is digitized and then displayed in a huge virtual aquarium. Children can then see their painting come to life and swim with all the other sea creatures, while they can interact with her at the same time.

Giant Aquarium Cracks in Restaurant Occurred on December 25, 2017 / Houston, Texas, USA "On Christmas Day, I picked up my mom from her memory care to take her out to Vietopia for dinner. I was about to give the hostess my name when all of a sudden we heard a loud noise and screams. It sounded like something had fallen and when I looked that way, I saw water pouring out of the large aquarium in a large stream. People at three tables had to move after getting wet. The staff took immediate action and placed large garbage cans on the floor to collect the water. Eventually the water drained enough to allow one of the staff to climb into the tank to work on saving the fish with a net."
Why no aquarium has a great white shark There are several aquariums around the world, including one in Georgia, that house whale sharks, the biggest fish in the sea. But not one has a great white shark on display. Aquariums have made dozens of attempts since the 1970s to display a captive great white shark. Most of those attempts ended with dead sharks. By the 2000s, the only group still trying was the Monterey Bay Aquarium, which spent a decade planning its white shark program. In 2004, it acquired a shark that became the first great white to survive in captivity for more than 16 days. In fact, it was on display for more than six months before it was released back into the ocean. In the following years, the Monterey Bay Aquarium hosted five more juvenile white sharks for temporary stays before ending the program in 2011. It was an expensive effort and had come under criticism due to injuries that some of the sharks developed in the tank. Responding to those critics, Jon Hoech, the aquarium's director of husbandry operations, said: "We believe strongly that putting people face to face with live animals like this is very significant in inspiring ocean conservation and connecting people to the ocean environment. We feel like white sharks face a significant threats out in the wild and our ability to bring awareness to that is significant in terms of encouraging people to become ocean stewards." Check out the video above to learn why white sharks are so difficult to keep in captivity and how the Monterey Bay Aquarium designed a program that could keep them alive.
