However, this is not something as gigantic and high-tech as the aquariums you see in countries such as Singapore nor can you expect exquisite fish to swim to and from in these tanks. But the concept is a fresh idea to Colombo and it is very well maintained so a quick stroll around the aquarium would be nice on a lazy evening.
