Shocking experience! Upon entering, my wife, young son, and I were greeted by a very strong and off-putting odor that could possibly have something to do with air circulation or ventilation perhaps (this building was formerly a car dealership after all). My first impression, which persevered throughout, was that the small, underwhelming animal enclosures were inadequate for the creatures inhabiting them (I know "bleeding heart here" but seriously in my opinion the lemurs, wallabies, giant rabbits, giant porcupines, etc. app... read more

This is not an aquarium. Circus-like environment with as much space dedicated to carnival games, arcade, bounce houses, ball pit, and cheap souvenirs as dedicated to animals. Sea life is a small part. Exhibits of reptiles, parakeets, lemurs, rabbits and other sad looking animals kept in small cages with no attempt at natural habitats. "Aquarium" is mostly a basement cheap looking pool with rays swimming around that of course requires extra tokens to feed them. Skip and go to a real not-for-profit aquarium instead of this mon... read more
This was the worst aquarium/zoo experience I have ever had. It smells terrible inside, the animals are in tiny enclosures that aren't clean nor do they seem appropriate for some of the animals. My family felt so bad for the animals. The water in the stingray tank etc was so dirty. Not sure how this place is allowed to even stay open.
Honestly was very disappointed after going here. The animals are in small enclosures. Everyone can touch them. Even if being allowed to touch them, I saw too many kids poking at the animals and being rough. The animals must be miserable and it's disheartening to see. You have to buy tokens to interact with some of them, and even so no one is available to let you. I hope whatever they do with the amount of money they make from this place is for a good cause, because this place does not treat their animals well.
It's horrible. Animals in small cages cramp in. Fish tanks dirty . Restrooms disgusting. Bird droppings everywhere and kids walking and playing on it . SHUT THEM DOWN !! PETA DO SOMETHING!!! Shut them down !!!

We were kind of surprised by the location as it was in a business district. We thought what size and kind of aquarium could be at this location. We were not wrong. It was much smaller than anticipated. I would not call it so much and aquarium as I would call it an interactive aquatic experience. There were fish, birds, reptiles, lemurs, and a few other things. There is a large game room for older kids/teenagers. We did not do the jumping ball pit. It said it would take 3 to 4 hours to go through. We were done in about an hou... read more
This was my second time here and loved all the new added additions to the aquarium. They have so many animals other than just water animals. One thing I really appreciate is the teacher discounts. Teachers get to enter for free!! I think this is so wonderful. I can't wait to share the excitement with my students. As you enter, make sure you get some tokens to feed the animals! There are many places you can go for this. I also appreciate how close and interactive you can get with the animals. I personally prefer this place ov... read more
