The aquarium of GEOMAR Helmholtz Center for Ocean Research Kiel is a display window of the biospheres in the North and the Baltic Sea down to the deep regions of the Northeastern Atlantic. In more than 30 tanks with a capacity of between 200 and 11.000 litres the most common fish species and invertebrates are shown. A special attraction is the circular basin populated by a shoal of herring.
Some tropical basins with fishes and crabs of the coral seas present a colourful contrast to the fauna of the cold seas. In front of the aquarium there is an open-air seal basin.
