MARINE LIFE FOUND IN TIDAL BASINS
High tide and low tide that occur twice a day are called tidal phenomena. At low tide the island has "tidal puddle", there are creatures left out there. Tidal sedimentation, such as a sharp rise or fall in water temperature, may result in harsh environments for living things. Let's observe the tide reproduction and the small creatures living there.
7.アザラシ館
OBSERVATORY FOR SPOTTED SEAL BEHAVIOR
I am imagining a place where sea urchins are coming along the coast of Hokkaido along with drift ice from the cold Sea of Okhotsk. It is a large aquarium with a water volume of 240 tons that allows us to feel a seal far away. Seal seal tunnel tank is Japan's first!

We display fish with unusual ecology and form of the world such as leaf fish which seems like dead leaves, Dengi woogie which gives powerful electricity, usually we can swim in handstand.
We call symbiosis that living organisms of different kinds cooperate. The relation between anemone fish and sea anemone is introduced often, but you can see various symbiotic relationships such as teppo shrimp and goby besides. Let's observe carefully.
