Answer:
this is refraction.
Explanation:
Since air has an index of refraction of essentially 1 and water has an index of refraction of 1.33 the angle from which the rays of light reach your eyes is larger than the angle they would in air. This makes the angular size larger to your eyes which makes the object look larger relative to how they would look in air.
The observation that fishes in the aquarium look bigger than they actually are is caused by refraction of light.
Refraction refers to the change in the direction of light(bending) at the boundary between two media. Hence, as light approaches the boundary between two media, its frequency and wavelength changes.
This causes an observer on land to see the fishes in the aquarium as bigger than they actually are as light crosses the air- water interface.
