The famous giant kelp tank at the Monterey Bay Aquarium.
The Monterey Bay Aquarium (founded 1984) is located on the site of a former sardine cannery on Cannery Row on the Pacific Ocean shoreline in Monterey, California. The centerpiece of the Ocean's Edge Wing is a 10 meter (33-foot) high million liter (1/3 million gallon) tank for viewing California coastal marine life. It was the first in the world to grow live California Giant Kelp using a wave machine at the top of the tank and allowing sunlight in through the open tank top, and circulation of raw seawater from the Bay.
