More info: The shark aquarium at Budapest Zoo contains 1.4 million litres of salt water and is home to several sharks and hundreds of colourful fish. In addition to the enormous fish-tank, there are 50 other 'smaller' aquariums and terrariums on site.
As well as the 4-meter-deep shark aquarium, there is an 11-meter-long observation tunnel where the frightening looking sand tiger sharks, leopard and brown sharks swim only arm's length from the visitors.
Once a week divers enter the tank to feed the sharks by hand and clean the pool. They give 12-15 kg of sea fish to the predators each time. Shark feeding takes place from 3 to 4 pm each Thursday ,
