Me standing in front of a big ass grouper at that place. The coolest thing there was the sea horse tanks. Those Dragon sea horses are amazing.

Sorry a few are blurry. Its hard to shove old women out the way and take a picture. The sea horse place gets packed and people are rude as hell. I got what I could and rolled out.
Meowzer. They were huge for a sea horse. I wanna say a foot maybe more. Its been about a year since I have been.

crypt they didnt have any lionfish when we were in there yesterday.
Ill post some more pics of what crypt didnt.
these pictures are the Florida wetlands section:





 
The Pittsburgh Zoo has a huge display of the various 'dragon' seahorses. The entire entryway is dedicated to a central tank with them in it. It is never a problem for visitors to get as close to the circular tank as they want. We take our kids there half a dozen times a year to see them.
The Georgia Aquarium is on our want list, but I saw a recent post on here about it being a let down...compared to a few others in the US. Someone bragged up Cleveland...so we hope to make it up there soon.
peace
