The sushi restaurant next door will make sushi out of the fish you want, the diver in the tank will catch it for you .... (just kidding)

That glass is VERY impressive, I would love to go see fishs with my own eyes. FYI: 60cm is 1/2 inch short of 2 feet.

Watching it in the smaller window is pretty nice too, where everyone just looks like a silhouette.

Okinawa has another "aquarium" I`m not sure if it`s still there I haven`t been there in 15 years but they built a bunch of glass tunnels in the bay that are really neat. Okinawa is just really beautiful no matter where you are. You should go if you ever get the chance.
