The Whale Shark Exhibit tank also features the largest underwater viewing dome (pictured at the top of the page), which has an external diameter of 12m and is set over a cylindrical structure built inside the tank .

The tank itself has a volume of 22.7 million litres of salt water, making it the world’s largest single aquarium tank.
