St. Louis Aquarium at Union Station

The traditional planted Dutch or Holland aquarium follows an orderly, often symmetrical arrangement, in which multiple types of plants having diverse leaf colors, sizes and textures are displayed much as terrestrial plants are shown in a flower garden.
This style was developed in the Netherlands starting in the thirties - forties of the 20th century, as freshwater aquarium equipment became commercially available.
It emphasizes plants located on terraces of different heights, and frequently omits rocks and driftwood. Linear rows of plants running left-to-right are referred to as "Dutch streets."
Tall growing plants that cover the back glass originally served the purpose of hiding bulky equipment in the tank. Color, contrast, and the beauty of the individual plants are paramount.

Het traditionele Nederlandse gezelschapsaquarium kent een ordelijke, vaak enigszins symmetrische inrichting, waarin meerdere soorten planten met verschillende bladvormen, kleuren en maten worden gebruikt in een onderwater plantenlandschap.
Deze stijl van inrichten ontstond in Nederland in de dertiger - veertiger jaren van de 20e eeuw toen zoetwater apparatuur voor aquariumliefhebbers beschikbaar kwam, waardoor planten beter gehouden konden worden.
Dit type aquarium is wereldwijd daarom als Nederlands- of Hollands aquarium bekend. In Nederland worden deze aquaria overigens meestal gezelschapsaquarium genoemd.
Bij het inrichten worden de planten vaak terrasvormig aangelegd waarbij ook beperkt stenen en kienhout wordt gebruikt.
Rijen planten, meestal lopend van links naar rechts en naar achteren, vaak ook enigszins omhoog, worden “straatjes” genoemd.
De “straatjes” suggereren diepte. Grotere planten worden achterin het aquarium geplaatst, lagere voorin. Kleuren, contrasten en de schoonheid van de afzonderlijk planten zijn van essentieel belang.
Meestal worden in deze aquaria slechts een beperkt aantal of zelfs geen vissen gehouden.
Het gaat hier niet om de vissen, maar om de planten.

L’Aquarium est un spot immanquable pour tout amateur de palmes-masque-tuba visitant Rangiroa. Situé sur le Motu Nui Nui, à l’entrée de la passe de Tiputa (côté lagon), on le rejoint en quelques minutes de bateau depuis les principaux villages de l’atoll. Avec ses fonds coralliens préservés, sa vie marine intense et ses milliers de poissons en suspension au dessus du récif, il mérite bien son nom.
I received a lot of questions about the aquarium in Sydney
Sea Life Sydney Aquarium is a public aquarium located in the city of Sydney, South . It is located on the eastern side of Darling Harbour to the north of the Pyrmont Bridge. It is a full institutional member of the Zoo and Aquarium Association (ZAA) and the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums (WAZA).
The aquarium contains a large variety of Australian aquatic life, displaying more than 650 species comprising more than 6,000 individual fish and other sea and water creatures from most of Australia's water habitats.
Its key exhibits in the aquarium are a series of underwater, see-through, acrylic glass tunnels where sharks swim above visitors, and recreation of a Great Barrier Reef coral environment.
There was a lagoon about 10 minutes walk from our apartment in Akumal. Snorkeling in it was like being in a large aquarium. It was wonderful.
I am going to have to struggle to keep myself from desaturating the photos (this is untouched except for exposure).
Canon sells a very nifty underwater housing for our point and shoot, it worked extremely well.
