This aquarium is 82 feet high and has an elevator inside it

It's 82 feet high and holds more than 1,500 fish. It has a glass elevator that runs up and down the center of the tank. It is so big that it has to be cleaned by divers, three or four times each day. The AquaDom is inarguably the most badass aquarium in the world.
The AquaDom is located inside the Sea Life Center inside of a Radisson Blu hotel in Berlin, Germany. The massive tank cost an impressive 12.8 million Euros to build and was completed in 2004.
Below is the impressive AquaDom are other tanks that make up the Sea Life Center, including a walk-through underwater tunnel, interactive rockpools, and other magical ways to interact with your favorite sea life.

The slots above the mouth that look like eyes are gills on the animal's underbelly.
