Muroran Aquarium, Public aquarium in Muroran, Japan.

The Muroran Aquarium houses 120 species of marine life in specialized tanks that replicate the natural habitats of Hokkaido waters.

The facility maintains strong connections with local schools through educational programs that teach children about marine conservation and aquatic ecosystems.

Located at 3 Chome-3-12 Shukuzu-cho, the aquarium charges 400 yen for adults and operates from 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM most days.

The aquarium features the Aburabouzu, a deep-sea fish native to Hokkaido waters, becoming the first facility in Japan to successfully breed this species.
