The first interactive aquarium with LEGO® elements in Malaysia will house 13,000 marine creatures
 
ISKANDAR PUTERI, March 14 (Bernama) -- On the 23^rd February 2019, SEA LIFE Malaysia welcomes over 23 species of fishes including Bala Sharks, Rasboras and Tinfoil Barbs to its Malaysian Rainforest habitat zone, an exclusive habitat zone only available in SEA LIFE Malaysia. With the completion of third milestone in the construction of SEA LIFE Malaysia, LEGOLAND® Malaysia Resort is one step closer to launch its brand new attraction in April 2019.
 
As part of LEGOLAND® Malaysia Resort’s commitment to bring new attractions for guests, SEA LIFE Malaysia will feature 13,000 marine creatures from 11 different habitat zones including Stingrays, Zebra Sharks, Black Tip Reef Sharks and seahorses. The largest tank with over 385,000 litres of water ; The Ocean Tank features a tunnel where visitors can  mesmerize  as sharks, rays and other sea creatures swim around the biggest habitat zone in the aquarium. SEA LIFE Malaysia will also have an interactive touch pool where children could get to experience and interact with marine creatures up close and personal.
 
“The arrival of the fishes marks another milestone in our construction of SEA LIFE Malaysia, ahead of the grand opening in April 2019. Our SEA LIFE aquarists have been working diligently to ensure that the water, health and safety of SEA LIFE’s marine creatures meet the required standards. Once the first group of the fishes are accustomed to their new environments, we will be bringing in the larger fishes such as the rays and sharks in the coming weeks,” said Kurt Stocks, General Manager of LEGOLAND® Malaysia Resorts.
 
“Through SEA LIFE Malaysia, our children will be able to learn the importance of marine life conservation through interactive experiences designed at the aquarium. Additionally, SEA LIFE Malaysia will be the only SEA LIFE in the region that will combine the interactive aquarium concept with unique LEGO® elements,” Kurt added.
