If I understand the video from this article correctly, the aquarium's giant sea bass have reproduced and one egg has successfully hatched, which is now being raised.

Researchers attempt to raise giant sea bass in captivity

Giant sea bass have been raised in captivity from the age of about a month before, but as the video states this is the first captive breeding.

Visited week before last, and really enjoyed the visit. It is undergoing a major expansion which will sort of “wrap around” the front of the current Aquarium. Not many new animals though, in that the new building will contain a theatre, art gallery and “temporary exhibits”.
