Abstract: In this presentation, we will talk about how we came to build our Fish4Knowledge (F4K) Gallery and an Underwater Aquarium, what we have provided in the aquarium and how it is relevant to our research work. The F4K gallery and its underwater aquarium is an experimental outreach platform to showcase the scientific work that we have carried out in a large collaborative international project. We will also talk about the issues that we have faced when using virtual worlds such as Second Life and OpenSimulator for educational outreach.
