Berlin's Giant AquaDom Hotel Aquarium at the Radisson Blu Hotel Containing 1,500 Fish Explodes - BBC

Excerpt from BBC

A million litres of water in the lobby of the Radisson Blu in Berlin burst, flooding the hotel and surrounding streets.

The largest free-standing cylindrical aquarium in the world is located at the "AquaDom", which is 15.85m high.

Two people were hurt when glass fell after the explosion.

There was a lot of damage according to police. Water poured into the lobby of the hotel.

The guests were removed from the hotel after the incident.

The cold weather made rescue attempts more difficult, according to a spokesman for the Berlin fire brigade. There were more than 100 species in the tank.

A pile of debris lay in front of what used to be the front doors, which were twisted at an angle by the force of the explosion.
