Aquarium at The Mirage
As you check in at the front desk of The Mirage, you'll be greeted by a 20,000-gallon saltwater aquarium stocked
with angelfish, pufferfish, tangs and other exotic sea creatures
- including three different kinds of sharks. Managed by The Mirage's
own in-house marine biologists, the aquarium accommodates more
than 1,000 coral-reef species from Australia, Hawaii, Tonga, Fiji,
the Red Sea, the Marshall Islands, the Sea of Cortez and the Caribbean.
These sea animals were all selected for their adaptivity to the
environment and compatibility with other species.
One of the most elaborate and technically advanced aquariums in
the world, the tank is 53 feet long, eight feet from top to bottom,
and six feet from front to back. The interior was carefully created
to simulate an intricately detailed, artificial coral reef. To
preserve the living reefs in the ocean, no live coral is used
in the tank.
