Langkawi Underwater World Part 1

Yup, there are too many photos, so this shall be divided into parts.

At the entrance, before the ticket counter, we can see the largest freshwater fish in the world, the Arapaima.


That's the only thing we can see without paying. :P

After some other fish (like catfish), we go into a little area with birds (and huge fish tanks)

swans! (and is that a duck?)

a black swan!

not sure what bird this is, but it was strutting around...it was hard to get a photo!

a chicken? lol

huge fish swimming in a tank

fluffy ducklings!

a tortoise! (the image came out rotated, I'm not sure why...but it's not important so I won't re-upload it)

penguins!
These are African penguins (or blackfooted penguins)

We could go under the tank to see them swimming

feeding time...they were picking fish off the ground.

There were also rockhopper penguins.

This guy looks distinguished, doesn't he? :P

and this one stood this way for a long time...don't his arms get tired? lol

When they swim, they look totally different...because their brows are no longer sticking out!

Later on, for some reason a bunch of them gathered, posing for us. Haha...

Two birds...

...kissing! (or maybe just feeding? :P )

Then we have the tiny stuff.

camel shrimp (I think this looks like jewellery...)

anemone carpet

long spine sea urchin

cerianthus worm

rose starfish

pink cucumber

boxing shrimp

blue crayfish

red swamp crayfish

In the next instalment we will look at some huge fish for a change!
