We visited for the first today. We will definitely be back. The attention to detail is remarkable! Make sure you take the time to look up and down and off to the sides as there is always something decorative to tie in to the exhibit. The exhibits themselves were informative and interesting. We loved the different zones of the aquarium and the immense variety of wildlife there; not just fish (although those were awesome too!) The staff we encountered were very friendly and not at all pushy like lots of attractions in the area... read more

really enjoyed it. glad to see that the bears have an outside space. why's it so dark? its not for the animals, their enclosures are well lit. was there another lighting element that wasn't being used? maybe a moving gobo that made people dizzy? the ray petting tank was awesome! the rays were into it, one even stopped so he could get a really good pet!

Awe inspiring and compelling! The dioramas combined with the live animals, fish, reptiles, and birds left us incredibly impressed...This museum and aquarium is state-of-the-art...You would have to go to a top tier city in the U.S. to experience what Johnny Morris has brought to Springfield, Missouri...Do yourself and your family a favor and come enjoy this incredible homage to nature and conservation...

We had a really good time, enjoyed seeing all the exotic fish - especially the jellyfish and sting rays. Amazingly enough, there were restrooms about every corner and plenty of places to set and just watch. There were several areas dedicated to winners of various fishing tournaments, which kind of felt like a bunch of well to-do folks patting themselves on the back. If nothing else, take the message to heart - take a kid fishing - get outside with your family and friends, enjoy the great outdoors!
