This tank is just next to the Earthquake stage and is across from the 747 stage. It’s used where an actor has to be seen underwater but the camera crew don’t need to be submerged. It’s obviously vastly cheaper to film through a glass window into an underwater tank than to put the camera in an expensive waterproof housing, then clad the camera crew in wetsuits and SCUBA gear.
