Maybe a small pond with fish? If pandas dont like to swim, which they probably can, at least the ducks could go there.

Pandas can swim, but it's mostly the fact that fish aren't really noticeable that makes them unchooseable xD

put the pond close to the guests (maybe an underwater viewing area ?) and choose species that can be noticed for size and/or colours. i'd say Koi, Asian Arowanas or Amur Catfish, just to stay Asian themed.

I know this should probably be in the Help and Support section, but i can't figure out how to make a proper aviary from Snowleo's glass dome. The glass elevated paths are too hard to work with, the glass pieces in the Building section need to be built on top of elevated paths, i just can't figure it out. So, does anybody have any proper instructions?

Anything special about making a Hesperornis exhibit? I'm just going it make it like a penguins... unless there's any specific things.

i don't think there are many differences, except that Hesperornis have teeth, so be careful with the guests.

There is a fact sheet in the encyclopedia: Giant panda. This has good info for an exhibit.

And here are some more examples of an indoor exhibit:

Indoor exhibits for panda's are not very common. They usually have a large outdoor area, and only the sleeping place is inside.

Yeah, but I wanted to plant some tropical plants in it, New York aren't good climate for them so I decided to make indoor ;)

New York should be fine, they live in a climate which can be quite cold.
