The Giant Ocean Tank is considered to be one of the most complex and sophisticated aquatic exhibits in the world, and the Hammerhead International Team was blessed to have been a part of this renovation for this world-class aquarium. The original tank was designed by Cambridge 7 Associates, and because of their innovation and ingenuity, they were asked to come back to redesign this new project of the Giant Ocean Tank. Hammerhead International is very honored to have work side-by-side with one of the best in the industry. |
