The museum of Práche? also presents a unique exposition of live creatures in the museum. Fishes and fishing is the exposition that documents, above all, the history of fish farming, together with illustrations of old tools used with fish farming and pond fishing. The river Otava was rich of gold in the past and there it was also possible to find pearl oysters, the source of pearls. In cold cellar corridors you can see big aquariums with volumes 2,000 litres (7 basins) and 2,500 litres (2 basins) where you can observe about 20 fish species of our waters in their natural environment. Because fish is kept here for a long time, the visitors can see their appearance and observe their behaviour and life.
