Fish as art

Ever wonder how tropical fish make it to the pet store? At the Living Art Marine Center, visitors can get an inside peak at the marine ornamental fish business.

Tropical fish tanks, an aquaponics garden and a shark museum are among the highlights of the center’s public tours newly offered on Wednesdays and weekends. The 90-minute guided tours begin at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. at the facility, which is located near the airport on Ualena Street.

The "Tour the Six Oceans Display" allows visitors to learn about different marine environments, and other exhibits feature a clown fish breeding area and a "touch tank" where folks can get an up-close-and-personal encounter with hermit crabs and starfish.

Admission is $14.95, $9.95 for children ages 4 to 12. Call 841-8080 for reservations or visit www.hawaiiansealife.com.
