From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The National Sea Life Centre (grid reference SP059867) in Brindleyplace, Birmingham, England is an aquarium with over 60 displays of freshwater and marine life. Its one-million-litre ocean tank houses giant green sea turtles, blacktip reef sharks and tropical reef fish, with a fully transparent underwater tunnel.
It is alongside the Birmingham Canal Navigations and opposite the National Indoor Arena.
It has an extensive seahorse breeding program, with many species of newly reared seahorses in tanks viewable by visitors.
In other displays, it has a Japanese spider crab, as well as horseshoe crabs, crabs, lobsters, sharks, sting rays, and otters.
It was voted Aquarium of the Year and Warwickshire Family Attraction of the Year (despite not being in the current administrative county of Warwickshire) by the Good Britain Guide 2004.
