Our fish house opened in May 1853, it was revolutionary for its time.
She inspired others who developed her techniques including Philp Henry Gosse who was instrumental in the establishment of London Zoo’s `Fish House’ which opened in 1853 as ZSL’s first aquarium.
Philip Henry Gosse was a renowned Victorian naturalist but was above all a marine biologist, designing and popularising the aquarium, a word he invented.
He found the term `Aquatic Vivarium’ awkward and uncouth and coined the term `Aquarium’.
The next aquarium building
The Aquarium
We popularised the name Aquarium and pioneered the first environments to provide the correct living conditions for salt-water animals.
