Kawasui in front of Kawasaki Station|Kawasui Catfish General Election 2022 with 55 Entries|2/22 Catfish Day Establishment Commemorative

Kawasui Kawasaki Aquarium has established February 22 as Kawasui "Catfish" Day with the Japan Memorial Day Association, and to commemorate this, "Kawasui Catfish General Election 2022" will be held between February 15 (Tue) ~ March 13 (Sun). Vote at the ballot box or online.

The reason for establishing 2/22 as Catfish Day is that catfish are called catfish in English. The same day is known as Cat Day in Nyang Nyang. Kawasui also has a cat café.

A total of 55 types of catfish exhibited in the museum, including those from the Tama River, Asia, Africa, and the Amazon in South America, were entered for the general election. Each catfish tank will have a fish name plate in the style of an election poster.
You can vote at the ballot box set up in the building or tweet from the special election website. 1,000 people will be selected by lottery from the voters of the tweet to win a Kawasui admission ticket. The voting period is 2/15 (Tuesday) ~ 3/13 (Sunday), and the vote counting will be reported on 2/22 (Tuesday). Final announcement 3/19 (Sat).

In addition, the restaurant will offer herb-grilled catfish on 2/9 (Wed) ~ 28 (Mon), and the first 50 people to search for catfish every day will receive a sheet gift to 2/9 (Wed) ~ 3/19 (Sat).

Of the approximately 300 species of creatures on display, 55 are catfish. The person in charge of the facility said, "We hope that 2/22 will be Catfish Day, and that the unique ecology and charm of catfish will spread."
