Commentaries

The highlights of the day in the aquarium are the commentaries that take place at the various feeds. Divers enter some of the exhibits to feed the animals who wait eagerly to see what is on their menu for the day. Guest Relations Guides provide lively and entertaining commentaries as the characters in the exhibit steal fish out of the diver's hand or out of the mouth of a fellow inhabitant. The wonderful array of colourful fish that mob the diver and steal out of the food bin in the Snorkel Lagoon is quite something to see.

The big brindle bass in the shark exhibit put on an exciting show as they scheme up new ways of getting more food than the sharks. This makes for exciting viewing as the diver has to be sharp as he pulls the food out of their reach.

While the commentaries are entertaining, they also convey a conservation message so that each person goes away having learnt something about how they can look after the sea.
