The lovin' people at the Sea Life London Aquarium hope that playing Barry White will make Zorro and Mazawabee, two zebra sharks, amorous.
The aquarium's disappointed that Zorro, who was introduced to the tank on Valentine's Day, hasn't been as much of a player as he had been back in his Belgium days.
According to the article, if a bit of Barry doesn't work, they're considering trying Marvin Gaye or, if push comes to shove - Wet Wet Wet's Love Is All Around. For God's sake Zorro, don't let it come to that!
And, finally - here's the "science" bit...
'Research suggests that fish can not only hear music but can appreciate different tunes and melodies so we have decided to see if some good old fashioned love songs will get them in the mood!'

The science bit makes sense (kind of) but why would they think whales would have the similar tastes to us in what's considered romantic. Surely they should throw in a whole variety of music and not just love songs to see what makes him more amorous!
