It seems that someone has poisoned their display and 600 fish died causing the aquarium to shut down

That is one of the most henious and horrible things I've heard of. I hope they eventually find the person(s) responsible, if it was sabotage. I also hope they are able to reopen on day.

More of a follow-up with a conclusion that it was sabotage, and done by more then one individual. I am absolutely sickened by this.

I really dont understand why someone would do such a thing. It does absolutely nothing for personal gain. The rain forest section is still open as the article says but the amount of visitors have dropped which is completely understandable. Why would you go to an aquarium where you cant see any fish?

Sounds like someone wanted to stop the aquarium from either profitting from the constant influx of tourists and their money, or they wanted to get back at somone who runs, or works at the aquarium. Maybe a disgruntled employee. There is also the third possiblity, someone was clumbsy and knocked in a gas can, but couldn't be mature enough to admit it was an accident.

Terrible! The crap people will do. Absolutely incomprehensible to me.
