Record-Breaking Aquarium



The Dubai Aquarium, which opened in November in the United Arab Emirates, has broken the Guinness Record for the "World's Largest Acrylic Panel." It is 108 feet wide, 27 feet high, 2.5 feet thick and weighs 540,989 pounds.

The largest panel before the Dubai Aquarium was at the Churaumi Aquarium in Japan. The Dubai Mall will be holding this record for a while, since the panel was the biggest acrylic that manufacturers could possibly make. The panel is made to withstand pressure from the 2,641,720 gallons of water behind it, while also being transparent so visitors can see the 33,000 animals on display.

Don't worry whether that traffic represents the qualified potential customers rather than mind the price of driving useless traffic.

I do enjoy the way you have presented this specific difficulty and it does indeed present me some fodder for thought. Nonetheless, because of what precisely I have experienced, I basically trust when the actual reviews stack on that folks keep on point and in no way start on a tirade associated with some other news du jour. Still, thank you for this excellent point and although I do not necessarily concur with the idea in totality, I regard your viewpoint.
