      As the web portal writes, the bottom of the enormous aquarium with a volume of 3 thousand liters is paved with natural river rocks. In the near future it is planned to plant algae there. The mechanism of each fish includes a special built-in motion sensor which makes it easy to notice and overcome obstacles (algae, stones), as well as not to collide with other fish in the aquarium.
