wow :o Ever seen the aquarium in Okinawa(sp?) Japan? They have HUGE tanks & I believe are the only aquarium w/ whalesharks.

Wikipedia sez about the Georgia Aquarium:
"The four most famous specimens, Ralph, Norton, Alice and Trixie are four young whale sharks from Taiwan. Ralph and Norton were with the Georgia Aquarium since its opening, Alice and Trixie joined the aquarium June 3, 2006 (the four whale sharks are named after characters from The Honeymooners). This is the first time whale sharks have been kept in an aquarium outside of Asia. The sharks are kept in a 6.2 million gallon (23.5 million liter) exhibit."

Sooooo yeh :3
Best aquarium OUTSIDE of Japan/ in the US at least :9
Maaaan I wish I could go to Okinawa tho :x
Much better sushi there than found in the US too methinks :3
Hahaha kinda morbid train of thought.

It's a shame WhaleSharks really can't adapt to captivity though. :/

Thanks for the interesting snippet, btw :]
