i don't think you need much, just some hay on the ground and water. that if it's an offshow area.

Wouldn't they eat the hay or if they have enough food they will leave it?

Guys, I have been to the Calgary zoo a few days ago and they had this awesome penguin exhibit. Now I'm going to try to use some ideas of it for a zt2 exhibit. BUT, I am not sure if it's possible, maybe you guys could try it too, cause I kind of failed my first and second attempt. The zoo has this exhibit which is like 2m higher than the path. The exhibit is on both sides of the path and underneath the path there are tunnels through which the penguins can swim. The visitors can see the penguins swimming through as the path above the tunnels is made from glass Now, making the exhibit higher than the path is not possible, but maybe if you make the exhibit as high as the path (with some fencing, but sadly no underwater viewing :/ ), would that work?

I'm not sure i quite understand what are you asking xD You can do underwater viewing and you can also use the glass path (there is one somewhere).

What if you build the whole thing on an elevated path? Then it would.

But the tanks won't be connected with each other. If you want the underwater view around the path then you need to place tank walls around and you can't conect the two tanks separated by the path.

You can do that with the Tank connecter thingy. I will show you what I mean.

I have made an exhibit along the same lines, it doesn't have any rocks in it or anything, but the style is pretty the same and it has the right viewing areas. You can download itHere.
Obviously I made this really quickly so it is not that good, but It shows that it would be possible to make that exhibit.
