Tochigi Nakagawa Aquatic Park

Medaka in a Japanese-Style Showcase

Tochigi Nakagawa Aquatic Park is an aquarium set against the rich natural backdrop of Naka River. As a facility where visitors can learn about the local natural environment and aquatic life, it offers a variety of exhibits and interactive programs. The park particularly emphasizes the display of native Japanese freshwater fish and aquatic plants, playing a key role in conveying the beauty of nature to its visitors.

From June 1 to August 25, 2024, Nakagawa Aquatic Park is hosting an event called “Gorgeous Medaka Show.” This summer event showcases approximately 58 varieties of Japanese Rice Fish, commonly known as Medaka, including both familiar and newly developed breeds, totaling around 10,000 fish. Our Bird’s Eye Aquarium has been introduced in this event at the park’s event hall, allowing visitors to discover the diverse charms of Medaka.

Medaka are traditionally viewed from above, and our Bird’s Eye Aquarium is designed to enhance this unique display method, providing visitors with a new perspective on the various breeds. Given the event’s three-month duration, we provided the table aquarium showcase on a rental basis to meet the park’s needs.

Bird’s Eye Aquarium is notable for its clear visibility from both the top and the sides.

The Japanese-style decorations are vibrant in color and shape, making the exhibition hall shine brightly.

The indoor environment is warm, so aquarium chiller is necessary. For custom orders, please inquire about methods to incorporate chiller units.

The Medaka gacha machine is very popular.
