Nemo was clownfish, that is a giant triggerfish. I know you were just cracking a joke, but I had to. I'm an aquarium nerd/dork, I'm surprised I'd never seen or heard of this tourist attraction in Germany. The before pictures look incredible, the after pictures... Not so much.
Great show.
Thanks hun, I'm a massive retard and just noticed your little Easter egg.If you go back and look closely at the pics, you might find Nemo
The article says temperatures got down to 10 degrees Celsius (14 degrees Fahrenheit). It seems kind of crazy that the tank would be exposed to outside temperatures that cold while the water was heated to whatever temperature the fish needed. I am curious to see how the difference in temperatures factored in with the pressure of the water.Yeah. I went on a bit of a nerd mission looking into the thickness of the acrylic glass used in aquariums. The viewing tunnels we walk through in the Sea World type places seem to be 6.5 to 12cm thick, but then they have the benefit of being an arch under the weight of the water which increases force bearing capacity. Also, those tunnels usually have less depth above them with a larger surface area so the weight is spread differently.
No doubt the engineers modelled this carefully, but it was a brave design.
Fuck yeah love Mr. Pickles🤘 He's a good boy...😈Thx! What´s an avy???
Poor sea creatures! ...
Berlin AquaDom Aquarium Bursts
Dec. 16, 2022, Berlin, Germany:
A huge aquarium in Berlin burst, spilling debris, water and hundreds of tropical fish out of the AquaDom tourist attraction in the heart of the German capital early Friday.
Police said parts of the building, which also contains a hotel, cafes and a chocolate store, were damaged as 1 million liters (264,000 gallons) of water poured from the aquarium shortly before 6 a.m. (0500 GMT). Berlin’s fire service said two people were slightly injured.
The company that owns the AquaDom, Union Investment Real Estate, said in a statement Friday afternoon that the reasons for the incident were “still unclear.”
Mayor Franziska Giffey said the tank had unleashed a “veritable tsunami” of water but the early morning timing had prevented far more injuries.
“Despite all the destruction, we were still very lucky,” she said. “We would have had terrible human damage” had the aquarium burst even an hour later, once more people were awake and in the hotel and the surrounding area, she said.
The website of the AquaDom described it as the biggest cylindrical tank in the world at 25 meters tall (82 feet tall), although Union Investment Real Estate clarified Friday that the tank portion of the attraction had a height of 14 meters (46 feet).
There was speculation freezing temperatures that got down to minus 10 degrees Celsius (14 degrees Fahrenheit) overnight caused a crack in the acrylic glass tank, which then exploded under the weight of the water. Police said they found no evidence of a malicious act.
Nearly all of the 1,500 fish that were inside at the time of the rupture died, the Berlin Mitte district government confirmed via Twitter, adding “a few fish at the bottom of the tank” could still be saved. Among the 80 types of fish it housed were blue tang and clownfish, two colorful species known from the popular animated movie “Finding Nemo.”
