A huge aquarium exploded inside a German hotel today, injuring two people and filling the lobby with 1,500 fish and a million litres of water.
The 46ft-high tank in the foyer of the Radisson Blu hotel in central Berlin burst at around 5.50am.
The incident at the AquaDom aquarium left two people suffering injuries from glass shards and caused 'incredible maritime damage', German police said.
The explosion filled the hotel lobby with over a million litres of water and 1,500 tropical fish. The leaking water reached the outside of the complex, prompting police to close a nearby street.
Footage from inside the hotel showed extensive damage to the transparent aquarium, with only the frame still standing.
Broken window panes and damaged furniture were scattered near the scene.
More than 100 emergency workers and rescue dogs were deployed to search the building for anyone who might be trapped under the debris, Berlin's firefighting service said.
