Morelia Aqua Lab

at

Morelia University Mexico

The Aqua lab at the University is sited at the rear of the complex, as you enter through it's gates  you are faced with a number of buildings set out in the shape of a horse shoe with numerous Concrete ponds in the center

Now if you are standing in the doorway of the Aquarium looking across the courtyard.to your right you would see the sight below. In the center, next to the students field trip coach is a water tower, and at the end of the Building to the left of this is the Preservation Lab. " Morelia has one of the oldest and largest collections of Preserved  Goodied and other species in Mexico". And this is now regularly being added to.

Now while still standing in the same position as for the first shot, and looking slightly to your left you would see these ponds in the foreground with the students Biology Lab in the background then top left is one of the two Lecture halls that form he top of the horse shoe

Below at the top are the two lecture rooms

Now if you cross over to the other side of the courtyard and look back you will see the doorway into the Aquarium building

Once inside here is the north wall of the Lab as it is now but when we first found it in Feb 1998 there were just a Dozen or so aquariums here the remainder was empty for lack of funds.

Center section of lab showing more indoor concrete pools, but you can see that things are developing well, with some room for further growth .
