Colorful Comeback: Tropical Florida fish dazzle families at Tampa International Airport

Now, after months of preparation and careful setup, the vibrant underwater habitats are back in place. Each display features 19 species of tropical fish, including angelfish, butterflyfish, surgeonfish, and damselfish, nearly 50 individual animals in total. All are native to Florida's Caribbean reef ecosystems.

Aquarium staff continue their meticulous care routine, providing the fish with a diet of squid, shrimp, clams, and nutritional pellets, along with regular tank maintenance and scuba dives to keep the habitats pristine.
