At the bar where we payed we turn left and enter the doors where we are having 4 small tanks on the right side with shell fish. At the Atlantic wolffish we turn left to se 5 aquariums. Here we find the octopus and some more shell fish. Passing the wolffish again  and a tank we follow another tank  with fish  that wander, like the trout. Then walking a while we meet fish frome the pelagic zone. On the right are 4 aquaria  showing the different habitats of the fjord. Behind the pelagic zone tank is a tank showing fish living on the sea bottom. Then on the right side are 6 small tanks showing life from the shore, like the tadpole fish and rocklings. Then you can enter the pier, with a model of Sognefjord and out door pools. Going to the exit near the bear we then at last have a touch pool.
