Beautiful Fish At The Vancouver Aquarium

We love snorkeling in the tropics and seeing fish in their natural habitat, but not everyone has that opportunity. Aquariums are a great place to take kids and introduce them to the wonders of our oceans and to teach the importance of conservation and environmental responsibility. The oceans belong to all people of the world and as such it is all our responsibility to save the oceans and the wide variety of life that depends on water for existence.
On the day that Cindy and I visited the Vancouver Aquarium it was full of school kids, and hearing their excited voices at each new discovery was awesome. I wish we could persuade the government to fund more projects like the Vancouver Aquarium and to bring more school kids to discover the wonders of the sea than giving money to large businesses and industries that find themselves in trouble due to bad management. I can only hope.
Arapaima (as known as the Paiche) is one of the largest freshwater fish in the world reaching lengths up to 14 ¾ feet
