[Nhcoll-l] [EXT] Aqua-Dom in Berlin burst

Fri Dec 16 17:26:26 EST 2022

This project was a deeply unfortunate real estate investment stunt (ref. Union Investment Real Estate GmbH). Given the prior disasters at similar sites the facility should probably have been shut down and - at least - revamped.

Dreadful and it’s come through on our News! One feels for the unfortunate fish!
They’ll get much flack from animal rights groups besides PETA!

With all good wishes, Simon Moore.

So sad.  It will be interesting to see what happened – I hope we hear eventually.

... few that were stranded in a box near the elevator, as well as the smaller fish in the tanks downstairs which were affected by the resulting complete technical system failure could apparently be rescued as well ...

Hi all,

for all those that visited the Aqua-Dom during the SPNHC conference in Berlin2016: the 16 metre tall cylinder with one million litres burst Friday night at a sudden, spilling 1,500 fish on the road and luckily injuring only two of the 400 people that were in the hotel at this time.
