Since you already know the time. There is very little else to know except 1) there is a lineup to get in - mostly foreigners (not long in terms of wait time) 2) no camera flash - but it is not dark in there, if you use no flash with ISO 400 - it's good enough 3) Don't touch the fish.. There must be at least 10 signs saying no flashes and the guards there tell you prior to you entering, but I can't understand why so many dumb people still have their flashes on.. And these guards speak perfect English too.. And yes the signs are in ENGLISH! And why do some people must have the urge to touch a frozen fish?? It's frozen!! Go touch a rock or something...Haha.. No wonder the Japanese thinks we're all nuts..
