A record high of 10,000 goldfish will be exhibited this year!!

This year’s Art Aquarium Theme

During the Edo period, goldfish took root as a popular culture in Nihonbashi, and the goldfish was admired to bring back the summer-cool culture to the present day.
A symbol of “art aquarium”, 3 works in the popular huge fish bowl series, “Hana”, “Ooku”, “Super-Hana”, and a solemn work of about 4 m square with a lotus motif, “Lotusrium” for the first time in the same venue There will be a large number of representative works that will be exhibited and will be collected up to the present.
The number of goldfish coloring works totals more than 10,000, and the number of works and the number of goldfish will be the largest ever.Official Website: Aquarium | Tokyo Nihonbashi

Goldfish in the art aquarium are well managed
I went around noon on the first day, but there was also a goldfish that was getting sick. Even if goldfish are properly managed in the same tank, it depends on the individual whether it is fine or not. It is nervous or it is delicate individual to the water quality that becomes sick.
However, when I look at the condition of the large goldfish so badly, it makes me feel unbearable …
I tried to find out what happened to the management, but I was relieved that the official website was written like this.
Art aquariums often draw attention to their ideas and expressions, but they boast the knowledge and technology to make the ecosystems present and use the fish.
The fish that swim here are the maximum value given by humans as living as ornamental fish, such as a nutritious meal, high-performance water purification equipment, and care by the biological management staff that takes place all night long every night. They’er having a happy time.
Of course, when the exhibition is over, the goldfish return to the ponds and wholesale shops in the goldfish market where they were well.
Unusual Goldfish that are hard to come by hand are left at hand and carefully taken care of, and will go around each exhibition together. There were also many goldfish traveling with art aquariums from Hokkaido to Okinawa. In some cases, a child is born during the exhibition, and the child grows up and goes on the stage.
Cautions for shooting in the art aquarium
Shooting inside the venue is permitted, but shooting with a flash or tripod is prohibited. Videos are also forbidden! Eating, drinking and smoking inside the venue is also prohibited.
