Baltimore Aquarium

[isistius]

i used to work in the aquarium, when i lived in b'more. i worked on the maryland mountains to the sea exhibit, also took care of the piranha tank and the big zig-zag tank in the rain forest. i also got to dive in the ray tank, and their reef tank while i was there. pretty cool time. feeding 600 lb sand tigers was a real trip...........

Not really. There were flying foxes (up real high), a very nice fish/turtle tank, a pair of rose brested cockatoos, and a couple of lizards and snakes. I you will be going there for the whole thing, then yes it is worth every penny. I have been there about 5 times and every time I am there, there is something new to look at.

And yes I saw the dolphin show.

My aunt works there and she said that they didnt have time to properly introduce the animals and one of the fish was eating all the birds and lizards when they went to drink. Well thats life.
