3 Places You Can Go to See Sharks in India

Aquariums in India

Aquariums have always been a source of excitement and fun for people of all age groups. India houses several aquariums with freshwater and marine species across the length and breadth of the country. Vizhinjam Marine Aquarium Trivandrum, Taraporewala Aquarium Mumbai, Under The Sun Aquarium Udaipur, Marine Aquarium Digha, Varkala Aquarium Varkala, Marine Aquarium Chennai, Science City Aquarium Ahmedabad, and VGP Marine Kingdom Chennai are some well-known destinations for watching marine life.

Special Features and Facilities Aquariums are home to several breeds of marine and freshwater species of fish. Gone are the days of just passively watching fish move around in tanks lined along a circular or rectangular hall or corridor. Newer aquariums have several added attractions like shark feeding shows, shark tunnels, touch screen and kiosks for interactive sessions and many other special features.

Sharks Although we enjoy watching so many species of fish, sharks always hold special interest. Under The Sun Aquarium in Udaipur, Science City Aquarium in Ahmedabad, and VGP Marine Kingdom in Chennai and three good places to watch sharks.

Udaipur Under the Sun Aquarium This aquarium in Udaipur is huge with a variety of species brought in from across the world. One of the most attractive features is the live virtual reality experiences offered to have a feel of sea life in an immersive 360-degree environment.

Ahmedabad Science City Aquarium This aquarium in Ahmedabad houses aquatic species from all over the world, with a main tank containing sharks and a 28-meter unique walkway tunnel. One of the key attractions here are the five cute African penguins.

Chennai VGP Marine Kingdom This aquarium in Chennai has over 200 species of fauna in 5 habitats and a deep underwater tunnel. You can either walk through the tunnel on foot or use the walkalator for an enriching experience. You can experience the thrill of scuba diving in clear water alongside sharks and also watch sharks and other species being fed a great meal. VGP Marine Kingdom offers more exciting experiences with the Underwater Suite, candlelight dinners and surprise birthday parties. Currently this is one of the most sought after holiday destinations for both adults and children in and around Chennai.

"When Francois Beyers first pitched the concept of 3D ocean farming to the Welsh regulators, he had to sketch it on napkins. 

Today the seafood farm is much more than a drawing, but if you walked along the Welsh coastal path near St David’s, all you’d see is a line of buoys. As Beyers puts it: “It’s what’s below that’s important.”

Thick tussles of lustrous seaweed suspend from the buoys, mussels cling to its furry connective ropes and dangling Chinese lantern-esque nets are filled with oysters and scallops. 

“It’s like an underwater garden,” says Beyers, co-founder of the community-owned regenerative ocean farm, Câr-y-Môr. The 3-hectare site is part of a fledgling sector, one of 12 farms in the UK, which key players believe could boost ocean biodiversity, produce sustainable agricultural fertiliser and provide year-round employment in areas that have traditionally been dependent on tourism. 

Created in 2020 by Beyers and six family members, including his father-in-law – an ex-shellfish farmer – the motivation is apparent in the name, which is Welsh for “for the love of the sea”. ...

Ocean farming comes from the technical term ‘integrated multi-trophic aquaculture’, which means a mixture of different seaweed and shellfish species growing together to mutually benefit each other. But it’s not just a way of growing food with little human input, it also creates ocean habitat. 

“You’re creating a breeding ground for marine animals,” explains Beyers who adds that the site has seen more gannets diving, porpoises and seals – to name a few – since before the farm was established.

Ocean farms like Câr-y-Môr, notes Ross Brown – environmental research fellow at the University of Exeter – have substantial conservation benefits.

“Setting up a seaweed farm creates an exclusion zone so fishermen can’t trawl it,” explains Brown, who has been conducting experiments on the impacts of seaweed and shellfish farms across the UK. 

Brown believes a thriving ocean farming industry could provide solutions to the UK’s fish stock, which is in “a deeply troubling state” according to a report that found half of the key populations to be overfished. “It would create stepping stones where we have safe havens for fish and other organisms,” he adds. 

But UK regulators have adopted a cautious approach, note Brown and Beyers, making it difficult for businesses like Câr-y-Môr to obtain licenses. “It’s been a tough old slog,” says Beyers, whose aim is to change the legislation to make it easier for others to start ocean farms. 

Despite navigating uncharted territories, the business now has 14 full-time employees, and 300 community members, of which nearly 100 have invested in the community-benefit society. For member and funding manager Tracey Gilbert-Falconer, the model brings expertise but most importantly, buy-in from the tight-knit local community. 

“You need to work with the community than forcing yourself in,” she observes. 

And Câr-y-Môr is poised to double its workforce in 2024 thanks to a Defra grant of £1.1 million to promote and develop the Welsh seafood industry as part of the UK Seafood Fund Infrastructure Scheme. This will go towards building a processing hub, set to be operational in April, to produce agricultural fertiliser from seaweed. 

Full of mineral nutrients and phosphorous from the ocean, seaweed use in farming is nothing new, as Gilbert-Falconer notes: “Farmers in Pembrokeshire talk about their grandad going down to the sea and throwing [seaweed] on their farms.” 

But as the war in Ukraine has caused the price of chemical fertiliser to soar, and the sector tries to reduce its environmental impact – of which synthetic fertiliser contributes 5% of total UK emissions – farmers and government are increasingly looking to seaweed. 

The new hub will have capacity to make 65,000 litres of sustainable fertiliser annually with the potential to cover 13,000 acres of farmland. 

But to feed the processing hub, generate profit and reduce their dependency on grants, the co-op needs to increase the ocean farm size from three to 13 hectares. If they obtain licences, Beyers says they should break even in 18 months. 

For now, Beyers reflects on a “humbling” three years but revels in the potential uses of seaweed, from construction material to clothing.  

“I haven’t seen the limit yet,” he smiles."

Sometimes you need to be vocal about what you want. When male midshipman fish (Porichthys notatus) are ready to mate, they hum with their swim bladder—the internal organ that helps keep them suspended in water. The resulting sound has been compared to loud grunts and can last for up to an hour. In fact, this species’ nighttime serenades sometimes drone so loudly that they disturb the sleep of people onshore! These fish, which can grow up to 15 in (38 cm) long, are native to the eastern Pacific Ocean. They might be spotted (and heard) in parts of Canada, California, and Mexico.

Frigid Steel, Boiling Wraith

Thinking about how pale ore is eerily chill to the touch

about how PV's spells, likely learnt from its father, take on the same shape as nails made out of an ore allegedly related to its parents

about how those spells are pretty much a solid state of soul for a few moments about how solid state of matter is often the most "cold" state, generally speaking

about how cold it's often associated with lack of emotion and corpses

Also thinking about how the knight's spells, learned from the snails, is more raw, more volatile

stated and shown to literally burn opponents, more of a hot blast than a proper solid mass

shaped and named after haunting ghosts, spectres that do not lay to rest, despite soul itself being present in the whole environment and not necesarily directly linked to sentient beings

about how it is strong emotions what fuels their transformation into their more powerful state through the usage of void, a volatile yet maleable substance, and the opposite of light

if you want to, you can get this drawing in full quality and ready to be a phone wallpaper at my kofi page completely free of charge (although i wont be mad if you leave a lil tip)

#makes me think if the pale king himself or the wyrm were also cold to the touch #or if his presence brought a chill to the place as opposed to radiance's burning presence #the 'snow' in kingdom's edge is actually ashes from a rotting corpse (so marine snow without the marine) #except maybe it is still quite cold actually? #theres also stuff that can be said about the forging of a pure nail and the readiness/fitness of a vessel #but that shall be left for another time #hollow knight #mebi's art #hollow knight art #hollow knight fanart #hk the hollow knight #the hollow knight #pure vessel #hk pure vessel #hk the knight #the knight hollow knight #the knight #digital art #krita #fanart #artist on kofi #artist on tumblr

infinite could technically be guardian of the life/death white emerald but i want it to be more of a gravekeeper type who tends to the dead, and infinite is too much of a edgy joke for that. i think the phantom ruby fits him, and it's the gem he's already connected to in canon. i think this one will either be an oc or just none.

for water i did consider chaos but he's already guardian of the chao.... #mysoginist, because Tikal did not even come to mind when i was brainstorming. and she would fit perfectly. literally intrinsically linked to chaos, a guy who is 99% water.

#i saw someone say marine for water too but... . i havent played rush yet and she's not appealing to me on just design alone #and shes related to blaze in a sonic and tails way i think? and i want blaze to be the only gaurdian in that kingdom #death would also be the last emerald to be introduced most likely so not too important rn.
