In the shopping and entertainment center "Komsomoll" (Volgograd) the oceanarium is open! It has two large halls, and in them - more than two hundred animals and fish from all corners of our planet. Volgograd is perhaps the only major city in Russia that does not have its own zoo. Therefore, there are a lot of people who want to visit the aquarium in Volgograd.

As part of the service staff there is an ichthyologist who oversees the animals, but at present there is no scientific research , the aquarium is a regular exhibition, which, like other exhibition centers and museums of Volgograd, is visited by residents and visitors of the city.

The area occupied by the oceanarium in Volgograd is almost a thousand square meters. There are a lot of aquariums with different fish, and also there are fur seals, crocodiles, otters, monitor lizards and other exotic animals, for whom living conditions close to the present have been created. It is planned to bring and penguins. Here live predatory piranhas, which, when gathered in large flocks, can pose a threat to humans, there are herbivorous species.

In the aquarium there is an aquarium with African fish of very beautiful color, they are much friendlier than piranhas. A poisonous little fish-lion wins its beautiful and unhurried movements. But if you just hesitate, and she just kills her victim with one touch, because. At the ends of needles, she has a deadly poison. Her aquarium stands apart from the others.

A great admiration is caused both in children and in adult shark visitors. They are still quite young. One of them - the black one - is moving without stopping. They say she will die, stopping. The other - white-headed - lies all the time at the bottom. They live in a huge water corridor, which is filled with more than a hundred tons of water, which will allow the fish to grow large. Nearby are striped and predatory moray eels, followed by skates.

Of great interest are African turtles, whose age for two - more than two hundred years. They were brought to the aquarium in Volgograd from Africa, saving them from poachers. Dumb and Armor - the name of the turtles - live in an enclosure with sand. Everyone is given the opportunity to make a photo with them for memory. Children like to watch how the turtles are fed, especially when they are feeding, a large number of visitors gather.

Next to the turtles are crocodiles from the Cayman Islands. It's good that they are behind the glass - they are terrible, they bite and grow up to almost five meters! They say that one day they did not share something and fought so that one of them had to even put seams.

Cat seals Katya is bored waiting for the groom from another oceanarium of our country. It's good that it did not take long to wait. Seals have become accustomed to live in pairs, and therefore one is not very comfortable with it.

The aquarium in Volgograd has its own chemists, who daily create sea and oceanic water, which is different for each breed of inhabitants. To do this, they mix distilled water and salt in different proportions.

All the inhabitants of this marine museum are successfully growing, they are well looked after, and therefore the experts of the oceanarium expect the appearance of posterity in the near future.
