First this is an Aquarium in a shopping mall, after visting many different aquariums i was ratter dissapointed, everything was right next to each other, not much room to move around, the shark tank was nice but that was about it. staff was rude when we arrived because my son was in a stroller and didn't have a shoe on

First, it should be said that this is Ripley's Aquarium. It is not Ripley's Believe It or Not! There are no 3 headed fish, sub-human mermaids, or sea monsters (although the Morrey Ills are scary). What you will see is plenty of marine and aquatic life up close and personal. You can pet sting rays, play with hermit crabs, and have sharks swim directly over you. There are plenty of signs that explain what you are seeing and it is a very educational experience. As a technical guy, I was very interested in the giant pumps and filters they use to maintain these huge saltwater tanks. They have a new Pirates Exhibit that was pretty interesting also. Definately worth the price of admission.
