A planned $12.5 million coral reef exhibit will be the first step toward a rejuvenated National Aquarium, officials said this week.
The
Wings in the Water exhibit, the centerpiece of the Pier 3 Pavilion and a
home for rays, sharks and other large fish, will be turned into what
officials are calling Blacktip Reef. The replica of an Indo-Pacific
Coral Reef — thinkAustralia'sGreat Barrier Reef, though much smaller —
it will be home to a school of more than a dozen sharks, plus other
creatures that call such habitats home.
