{{nihongo|'''Sendai Umino-Mori Aquarium'''|仙台うみの杜水族館 | Sendai Umino-Mori Suizokukan}} is an [[public aquarium]] located the of in Sendai, Miyagi Prefecture.
==Overview==
[[
Sendai Umino-Mori Aquarium was opened in 2015 as a successor to [[Marinepia Matsushima Aquarium]], which had been open for 88 years.
[[Commerson's dolphin]] and [[Finless porpoise]] are inhabited by individuals inherited from the Marinepia Matsushima Aquarium and fish that inhabit [[Sanriku]].
The facility is a two-story building with 100 fish tanks.
Inside the building, there is a dolphin and sea lion show pool that can accommodate about 1,000 people, which is the largest in Tohoku.
=== Raising blue sharks ===
As a fish of Sanriku, we are focusing on rearing and exhibiting [[blue shark|blue sharks]]. In 2017, we succeeded in exceeding 246 days of [[Tokyo Sea Life Park]], which is the longest rearing record so far, and succeeded in rearing 252 days.
The blue shark, which was the most alive in captivity, was captured in Shizugawa Bay on July 27, 2018 and taken to the Public Aquarium. The total length at the time of delivery was {{convert|51|cm|ft|abbr=on}}, the estimated weight was 345g, and the age was about 1 year old. After that, it lived for 873 days, but died due to factors such as disordered [[swimming]] due to [[dehydration]]. At the time of death, the total length was {{convert|114|cm|ft|abbr=on}} and the weight was 4kg. This growth rate is said to be the same as that of [[wild]] blue sharks.
==Marinepia Matsushima Aquarium==

'''Marinepia Matsushima Aquarium''' (マリンピア松島水族館、Marinpia Matsushima Suizokukan) is an aquarium that once existed in [[Matsushima]] Town, Miyagi District, Miyagi Prefecture. It opened on April 1, [[1927]] and closed on May 10, 2015.
Marinepia Matsushima Aquarium was a public aquarium operated by [[Sendai Kyuko]]. In Japan, it was the second longest-running aquarium after Uozu Aquarium. However, in 2001, due to aging, we began to consider renewal.
After that, the number of visitors decreased due to the opening of [[Oga Aquarium Gao]] and [[Aquamarine Fukushima]]. In 2009, Sendai City announced plans to relocate the aquarium to Takasago Central Park in Sendai Port.
However, in February 2010, the operating company Sendai Kyuko canceled its investment due to the lack of prospects for raising funds.
Then, in 2013, Marinepia Matsushima Aquarium participated in the management, and six companies including Yokohama Hakkeijima invested to establish "Sendai Aquarium Development Co., Ltd."<ref>[https://www.mitsui.com/jp/ja/release/2013/1205666_6496.html 仙台水族館（仮称）設置に向けて新会社を設立] - 2021-05-01</ref> The new company built a new "Sendai Umino-Mori Aquarium" in the hinterland of Sendai Port, where the Marinepia Matsushima Aquarium was supposed to move, and opened on July 1, 2015. Sendai Kyuko, which operates the Marinepia Matsushima Aquarium, will not invest in this, but the newly constructed aquarium will accept [[animals]] from the Marinepia Matsushima Aquarium.
=== After the Great East Japan Earthquake ===
In 2011, the [[Great East Japan Earthquake]] flooded the building and broke the circulation pump, killing animals such as [[Ocean sunfish]], [[Jellyfish]], [[Tropical fish]], and [[Pygmy sperm whale]].
As a result, we received new tropical fish and jellyfish from [[Kamo Aquarium]] and [[Osaka Aquarium]].<ref>{{cite web|url= https://sites.google.com/site/kanshamiyagi2/home/matsushima |title= 松島町 マリンピア松島水族館 |date=2014|accessdate=2011-04-23 }}</ref><ref name="47news"/>
