8 BEST local Aquariums & Aquarium Supplies in Newcastle West NSW | Yellow Pages®

Aquarium services - you’d have to sea it to believe it

At Yellow we think aquariums are cool. But did you know:

• The first aquarium open to the public was in the London Zoo, and was called an underwater vivarium, until the zoo coined the term “Aquarium”
• The longest a great white shark has been kept alive in captivity was 6 months
• The international space stations aquarium is home to a number of small fresh water fish
• Old telephone booths in the Japanese town of Osaka are being turned in to miniature public aquariums
• Lobsters urinate on each other via urine nozzles below their eyes as a form of communication
• Starfish have an eye at the end of each arm. The arm will also regrow if injured or lost
• An octopus has 3 hearts and can squeeze itself in to any hole that will accommodate its beak. So, keep a close eye if you choose to keep one in your aquarium at home!

You think these facts are fun? Why not set up your own custom aquarium and accessorise its watery and wonderous features to suit your home
