The exhibit used to house a pair of Freshwater Sawfish (Pristis microdon) back in 1999-2005, before they died of unknown causes.
 
@Fargusno Just like the Sumatran rhinoceros (Dicerorhinus sumatrensis) of the 90's Ragunan Zoo, this two animals are kept before I was born and died when I was still a toddler. I hope SeaWorld or Jakarta Aquarium could own this species.
 
@Nandito It's hard for aquariums in Indonesia to own a Sawfish nowadays. The permit required to own one is very expensive since all Sawfish are either Endangered or Critically Endangered.
