SINGAPORE, April 8- Resorts World Sentosa’s S.E.A. Aquarium is now the official record holder of two Guinness World Records – the largest aquarium and largest acrylic panel. The S.E.A. Aquarium is currently home to more than 80,000 animals of over 800 species, housed in 42.8 million litres of water, RWS said in a statement.

Comprising 10 zones with 49 habitats, the Aquarium is the dry experience at the Resort’s second anchor attraction – Marine Life Park, and will eventually be home to more than 100,000 marine animals including hammerhead sharks and bottlenose dolphins. The centerpiece of the Aquarium is the world’s largest acrylic panel.

Measuring 36 metres wide by 8.3 metres tall by 700 mm thick and weighing more than 250,000 kg, it offers a spectacular view of the cavernous Open Ocean habitat, which is home to some rare marine species such as the giant manta rays and goliath grouper. One of the biggest challenges in constructing the world’s largest acrylic panel was the bonding process, where a special bonding room had to be built on-site.
