Durch die lebendigen und eindrücklichen Habitate können die theoretischen Grundlagen nachhaltig vermittelt werden, wodurch ein maximaler Lerneffekt eintritt. Eine einwandfreie und unangreifbar tierfreundliche und artgerechte Haltung ist hier problemlos möglich.
Steinkorallen können sich auf unterschiedliche Arten vermehren. In den Oceanen ist das Massenablaichen eine phänomenale Erfindung der Natur. Auf Kommando lassen die Korallen „Bällchen“ durch ihre Mundöffnung oder Polypen frei. An der Wasseroberfläche öffnen sich die Keimzellbündel und geben ihren Inhalt frei. So können sich Eizellen und Spermien befruchten. Weiter lesen...
Die Zucht von tropischen Fischen stellt hohe Anforderungen. Maulbrüter wie der Kardinalbarsch (Pterapogon kauderni) lassen ihre Jungen im Maul des Männchens heranwachsen. Während dieser Zeit frisst das Männchen nicht. Sobald die Jungen gross genug sind, werden sie frei gelassen. Dann ist es wichtig das richtige Futter (lebendes Plankton) bereit zu halten.

Seepferdchen sind niedlich – und bedroht. Die „pferdeähnlichen“ Fische sind die einzige Tiergattung, bei der das Männchen den ungeborenen Nachwuchs in sich trägt. Umweltverschmutzung, Naturkatastrophen und illegaler Handel machen ihnen zu schaffen. Der Import von Seepferdchen ist richtigerweise verboten. Weiter lesen...
Durch den Verkauf von Nachzuchten können einerseits Wildfänge reduziert und andererseits gewisse Kosten abgedeckt werden. Tragische Verluste durch den Transport werden so vermieden. Des Weiteren sind unsere Kunden Botschafter und bringen uns so weitere Besucher unseres Unterwasser-Parks und/oder Teilnehmer von Seminaren. Eine Symbiose sozusagen. Weiter lesen...
Through the lively and impressive habitats, the theoretical basics can be conveyed in a sustainable way, which results in a maximum learning effect. A flawless and unassailable animal-friendly and species-appropriate keeping is possible here without any problems.
Stony corals can reproduce in different ways. In the Oceans, mass spawning is a phenomenal invention of nature. On command the corals release "balls" through their mouth opening or polyps. At the water surface the germ cell bundles open and release their contents. This allows egg cells and sperm to fertilise each other.
The breeding of tropical fish is very demanding. Mouth-breeders like the cardinal-perch (Pterapogon kauderni) let its boys grow up in the mouth of the male. During this time the male does not eat. As soon as the young are big enough, they are set free. Then it is important to have the right food (living plankton) ready.

Seahorses are cute - and threatened. The "horse-like" fish are the only animal species in which the male carries the unborn offspring within him. Environmental pollution, natural catastrophes and illegal trade cause them problems. The import of seahorses is correctly prohibited.
Through the sale of offspring, wild catches can be reduced on the one hand and certain costs can be covered on the other hand. Tragic losses due to transport are thus avoided. Furthermore our customers are ambassadors and bring us more visitors of our underwater park and/or participants of seminars. A symbiosis so to speak.

Tropic Marin, for a more beautiful life under water
Only those who know how the animals live, how their habitats function and how the ecological processes take place will understand why the most important nature reserves need to be protected. With our project we want to draw attention to this problem in inland Switzerland. Climate change, sea level rise, earth and ocean warming, coral bleaching and coral death concerns us ALL!
To achieve an impressive and lasting sensitization, real habitats for demonstration purposes are required. In addition, local breeding of marine creatures can reduce the natural extraction of fish, corals and seahorses and the import of these animals and thus the pressure on the entire ecosystem. In this way, scientifically useful knowledge is also gained, which benefits the protection of nature and species.
The professional demonstration and breeding facilities, which are constructed in accordance with all national and international laws (protection of species, Code of Ethics and Animal Welfare of the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums WAZA), are made accessible to the public in order to create an impressive and economically viable offer. In this way, training courses can be offered in a manner appropriate to the target group and a sustainable effect can be achieved.

The total project costs for the facilities amount to at least 200'000 CHF.
The association would like to realize this project and is dependent on your financial support. The construction and maintenance is done by members of the association on a voluntary basis until the project is self-sustaining. Through patronage, private or legal persons can support the project by contributing to the association's account (IBAN: CH31 0686 6595 0931 7783 1). Our patrons are distinguished into the following categories;
and, in accordance with our marketing concept, presented in a highly visible manner on the social media platforms and in the Aqua Center. Of course, patrons can also remain anonymous. If the project is not realized by the end of 2021, the donations will be returned immediately.

Contractors or suppliers who support us through services, installations or by providing material (products / accessories) are divided into the same categories and are also owed at the different locations.
The marine biology, the water chemistry and technology fascinates and inspires us as Coral lovers at the same time. Deepened knowledge but increased our discomfort in terms of our environment and especially with regard to our underwater ecology.
(only) the rainforests (land biosphere) and the atmosphere absorbs what the human being greenhouse gas released, but in particular the oceans with their algae and "corals" are for the absorption of CO2 and release of Oxygen O2 responsible! The role of our Oceane as the largest CO2 - storage is only really known to a few people.
is the starting point of our project "CORALLIUM LIFE". We give the broad population insights into the underwater world (SHOW) and create thus knowledge (KNOW), in order to finally ensure the protection of the Oceane from Switzerland and to promote our questioning behavior (ACT). We achieve this goal with the striking demonstration of functioning and non-functional ecosystems.
Our plants are built with a demonstration tank (natural habitat), a technical tank (for filter media/ skimmers etc.) and a settling tank (young corals and fragments) in a water circuit. In cooperation with our partners, water analyses are carried out and the results are processed using the knowledge and experience gained from our facilities.
