Dive down to S.E.A. Aquarium at Resorts World Sentosa for a 'white' Christmas with the Platinum Alligator Gars - torpedo-shaped, snowy-hued megafish which can grow up to three metres in length and weigh 140kg. The creatures get their pale or white scales from leucism - a pigmentation disorder that makes them a breathtaking sight to behold. They don't eat humans, despite their sharp teeth and wide, alligator-like snout. They're prehistoric giants which have been around for millions of years, but don't wait too long to see them.
