There is a special feed at 11am every day and this will generally
consist of either an eel feed or a flatfish display feed depending
on the day or the presence of a group. If you are wanting to
view a particular feed please feel free to contact staff on
(03) 377 9196 to clarify when the next feed of your preference
will occur.

Eel Feed
This will take the form of either a top feed or a dive depending
on attendance or the presence of a group.
| The
dive involves one of our Aquarists being inside the tank
and feeding these huge denizens of the not-so deep with
their bare hands- definitely a high point of any visit to
the aquarium. Please ring to confirm when the next scheduled
dive will be taking place to avoid disappointment. |

- Flatfish Feed
This is the feeding of our second largest marine display and
is guaranteed to cause an excited flurry of activity within
seconds.
| This
display is where we house the less aggressive and generally
more endearing fish such as the porcupinefish (Allomycterus
jaculiferus) who has big brown eyes large enough to
make a cow proud! |
