The exhibit features a seven-meter tank called the Big Petri Dish, which houses around 500 jellyfish. This comes after the aquarium closed for months in light of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Visitors can also drop by the Aqua Base, a "kitchen" where staff prepare the food that they feed to the creatures that live in the aquarium.
Here, visitors can also learn more about how to care for the creatures and how they are bred in the "lab", reported SoraNews.
