At the Aquarium you’ll feel the industrious vibe instantly as you encounter our first saltwater gallery where fish from exotic regions like Indonesia, Fiji and Hawaii hang out. The king of the jungle here is the venomous lionfish; its red and white zebra-like stripes and long pectoral fins stand as its own personal warning system.
Check out the cleaner shrimp for a quick, “mini-manicure”. . . Aquarium-style. And don’t miss the “silver screen” a.k.a. our school of lookdown fish that shimmer and shine as they glide by in a giant wave of cuteness. Add seahorses, jellyfish and live coral and it’s quite possible you will never want to leave.
This cold-water arch habitat features some of the unique creatures that can survive in that frigid water. The coolest of them all is the giant Pacific octopus – one of the most intelligent and active aquatic animals you will ever encounter.
Big sharks with lots of teeth. What else do you need to know? With 230,000 gallons of water, this impressive space features 3 species of sharks, stingrays, eels and many other species of fish. Walk through the 175-foot underwater seatube and you’ll feel like you are SCUBA diving without all the heavy equipment.
