Aliens attack! The ocean floor is besieged by giant scavengers of the deep blue sea. All around you, hair-raising 14-legged crustaceans scuttle and crawl. Luckily you’re safe in a bubble, but not from their assault on your senses.
 

For the first time in Singapore, Underwater World Singapore brings these little-known pre-historic creatures to the surface and houses them in a special dome-like structure. Connected to the dome is a specially constructed tunnel for children to crawl into and go beneath the tank to observe the swarming isopods in close proximity. With over 4,000 facets to its huge aviator-shades-like eyes, the 28-cm Giant Isopod is accustomed to low levels of light and can see in pitch darkness. A distant cousin of the shrimp and crab that feeds mostly on dead sea animal carcasses, the isopod dates back to over 160 million years ago.

For the thrill of your life, come to Underwater World Singapore today!
