The Monterey Bay Aquarium was founded in 1984. It has attracted more than 47 million visitors and has won awards for its exhibits, architecture, and cultural and educational impacts. The basic design of the aquarium pumps 2000 gallons per minute of Monterey Bay ocean water, night and day, through the more than 100 exhibit tanks. During the day the water is filtered for viewing clarity. The acrylic plastic that makes the various tank walls ranges from 3 to 13 inches in thickness, enabling them to resist the pressure and high total force of the water behind them.
