What if the “secret ingredient” behind Two Oceans Aquarium’s exhibits doesn’t come from a laboratory, but directly from the ocean itself?
At the Two Oceans Aquarium, seawater is pumped from Table Bay into the exhibits, forming the foundation of every habitat in the facility. But bringing the ocean indoors involves far more than simply moving water from one place to another. It takes a carefully controlled, continuously monitored process to keep conditions just right for the animals in our care.
Follow seawater’s journey from source to exhibit, and meet the systems and expertise that help maintain exceptional water quality. From filtration and temperature regulation to salinity balance, every step plays a critical role in supporting the health and wellbeing of the Aquarium’s marine life.
This is not just water – it’s the ocean, thoughtfully sustained within these walls.
