Aquarium of the University of Murcia

The aquarium of the University of Murcia is a marvellous complement to the cultural and playful offer in Murcia.

It is a space opened to the public where an interesting educative and research labour is being carried out.

The aquarium includes the most interesting and striking species of the world's marine fauna.

In the tour visitors will see environments of reefs with corals and real fishes from the Indic Ocean, the Pacific Ocean, the Red Sea, the Caribbean Sea and of course, a vast representation of the different communities living in the Mediterranean and the Menor Sea.

Besides sharks, complex associations are shown between different marine animals (symbiosis between clown fishes and anemones...) and even examples of adaptation to diverse environments, as it is the case of the stone fish (one of the most poisonous animals of the world).
