Welcome to Rock Pools<\/h3>\n
\n
\n

What\u2019s living along the Great British coastline? Find out in the Rock Pools aquarium exhibit.<\/p>\n

Be prepared to (metaphorically<\/em>) jump into the environments that surround our beautiful British coastline. Come face-to-face with the Lesser Spotted Dogfish and become acquainted with the Spiny Starfish that call Britain\u2019s coasts their home.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n\n

What's it about?<\/h3>\n

What are rock pools?<\/h4>\n
\n

Rock pools are shallow pools of seawater that form near the coast. When the tide goes out, small pockets of seawater are often left behind in the dips and curves of the beach or shore. While these pools can often be a difficult habitat for marine life and leaves them temporarily displaced, they act as a microhabitat for species from crustaceans to coral, algae to anemones. Despite being a relatively small environment compared to our other exhibits, our Rock Pools exhibit packs a real punch.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Rock Pools exhibit is made up of three giant, interconnected rock pools to mimic how these pools are usually dotted around in the wild, particularly along the British coast. They are filled with saltwater as they would be out in the world, with a temperate marine climate to imitate the conditions in the UK.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As with all of our exhibits, our goal is to make our animals feel as at home as they possibly can be.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n\n
