Shedd Aquarium, Chicago (June, 2008)

 
In the Islands and Lakes exhibit there's a great display that mimics an African rift lake that full of cichlids.  Those are very colorful freshwater fish found naturally only in that part of the world but have become very popular aquarium fish. 

The tank at the aquarium literally had hundreds of fish darting around in it.

Shedd's website boasts there are 90 habits in just the four wings called Waters of the World.  (The rift lake tank is in this section.)
