I'm a lifetime member. I'm saddened to see so many bad reviews. I think this place is quite amazing for being an aquarium in the middle of the desert. I think it's awesome that they are renting land from the Indian reservation and the Native American's can profit from this business. Yes, I will admit they did a poor job planning this place because it appears they are having some issues with the water filtration however I have faith that they will fix this. What I thought was really awesome were the two sea turtles who were rescued and could otherwise not survive in nature due to their disabilities.
