The beauty of a river that differs from that of the ocean. The collaboration of the sun, greenery, and fish. -From Nakagawa River to world rivers, then to the longing sea-20,000 fish of 300 species are represented in the river aquarium.

It's just like being a fish.

Nature, from the source of Nakagawa River to downriver, is recreated. A large acrylic glass wall rises from the floor for a view of the half submerged water tank, with real trees and flowers in the ground section.
Sunlight coming through the leaves shine down, spreading in the water, swaying in the wind, and leaves and flower petals fall from the real trees gently sink in the riverbed, with lively fish swimming around... By gazing up to the sky from the bottom of the river, a space where you feel just like a fish has been created.

The dynamic fish of the Nakagawa River

The fish have been raised in the nature-themed water tank and swim around leisurely. Various phases can be seen according to the season, such as changing to bright courtship colors during the mating season, and demonstrating their dynamic egg laying activities.
The fish grow in an aquarium which recreates nature, actively swimming, and showing off their bright mating colors during the egg laying period and dynamic breeding behaviors.
The display story is “From the Nakagawa River to world rivers, then to the longing sea.”Experience the beauty of the river that has been, up to now, too close to notice.
