The '''Secret Aquarium''' is a secret stage accessed by entering the hole in the wall on the right side of the [[JRB|Jolly Roger Bay]] room. It consists of a room fully filled with water; it contains 40 [[Yellow Coin|yellow coins]] that can be used to refresh Mario's air. There are also 8 [[Red Coin|red coins]] that must be collected to spawn a star. It is the only stage to have an (albeit implicit) time limit, as you cannot resurface and there are a limited amount of coins you can use to refresh your air.


Entered by entering one of the holes in the JRB room, you will be placed in a small level filled with water. Collect 8 red coins to get the star. Thus is the only stage to have a time limit, as you cannot surface and there is a limited amount of coins.
==A Presses==
Although the stage itself does not require any A presses, as it can easily be done by swimming with the B button, entering the aquarium is a challenge on its own. The current strategy used is very complicated. Because the final [[text redirection]] is done using a door that requires 1 star, the whole strat has to be done without collecting a single star. We have to enter [[Bowser in the Dark World]], get the basement key, and go to [[Shifting Sand Land]]. Once in there, the TAS creates a setup using various objects found in the course to make sure Mario gets the right angle and speed for the lobby movement.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=goad2ijHBE8</ref>
==Other Challenges==
This star cannot be collected in the [[Coinless Challenge]], [[CCC Challenge]], [[No Buttons Allowed Challenge]], [[No Joystick Allowed Challenge]], or [[UBER Challenge]], as it requires collecting red coins and swimming.
 
This star can be collected in the [[Capless/Cannonless Challenge]], [[Pacifist Challenge]], [[B Button Challenge]], [[Z Button Challenge]], and [[Floor is Lava Challenge]].
 
There is an [[unsolved challenge]] in this course, to reach a [[Parallel Universe]].
