By far the best aquarium I have ever been to and I go to aquariums in every city I stop in. It is definately a place everyone should go to at least once.

have you go to Monterey Bay aquarium??
i was wondering if they are good also...

[Darbex]

Yeah it is cool but I still like GA better. One of the cool things about Monterrey is that one of the tanks is really a glass wall under the bay so you get to see the wildlife as is untouched.

This is why I think Houston needs to do the idea I read about turning the astrodome into an aquarium. The 4th largest city, by the sea, and a great fish keeping city has such a horrible aquariums. The best ones are a private one by Landry's and Moody Gardens.
