Humpback whale exhibit to open March 2020
CALIFORNIA - A major aquarium and sea park has begun the construction of a 7 billion gallon saltwater tank. The $15 million project is expected to be completed by March of 2020.
The finished aquarium is set to feature a 300 ft wide and 30 ft tall viewing window. It will also have an underwater hotel. Each room will have a 270° viewing window and is rumored to have a rate of $5,000 a night.
The park plans to have the whales ready to perform 3 shows by the grand opening. Electroshock therapy has proven to be an excellent training tool for the whales. Senior trainer David Shwimmer explains, "It's not the electric shock that motivates them, it's the pain of hearing their fellow whales being electrocuted that sets them straight."
Ticket sales are going on now.

If this seems ridiculous, then how does holding dolphins in captivity seem?
