  • I was so excited to come see a new animal attraction but was let down. We went to visit on a Monday evening it was pretty slow so that was great for us. To check in and pay took it 20 mins and $60 for 2 adults and 1 child. We also bought coin so we could get food to feed animals. The aquarium looked clean for the most part aside from 2 snake cages that had poop in the water. From a sensationalized point of view the aquarium was amazing. We were never asked to hold any of the animals or offered to other than the parakeet exhibit which was horrifying. We were able to feed tons of fish stingrays and sharks that was an amazing experience and a lot of fun. If you're looking for any bit of education this is not the place to go. Less than half the enclosures had any information on what animal was on exhibit let alone information about them. My major concern with this facility was there parakeets and lorikeets that were on exhibit to interact with. We gave a coin to purchase food to feed the parakeets they were attacking biting and ripping feathers out to get the food. One of the birds that perched on my arm had a hole in the back of its head. The girl working inside of there did not seem concerned at all I caught the bird and ask them to take it off exhibit. I understand not openly feeding during the day to entice the animals to go to people for food. What saddens me is there was no food or water in the exhibit at all. I was told that there was water behind a tree that was in the middle of the parakeet exhibit there was no water when I looked on my way out. The lorikeet enclosure was no better the lights were dim in there it was obviously not open to the public at the time. I would guess there were about 10 lorikeets five of them laying on the floor. You could see them trying to get parakeet food from the birds on the other side. Lorikeets have a specialized diet which includes nectar they should be on a powdered food that they mix with water. I was not able to go in this exhibit but did not see water or food provided anywhere. Both bird exhibits had no nesting boxes or anywhere for the birds to get away from the public other than perching on branches that were over populated by other birds. Its not a natural behavior for these birds to lay on the floor it was extremely sad to watch. After leaving the bird area I found a manager and voiced my concerns and they seem to know nothing of it. This is extremely concerning. I hope the birds get better care asap. Also they use plastic Dixie cups to hand out food for feeding the animals. I went through 15 plastic Dixie cups while I was there they do NOT recycle them!!!! You would think they would be environmentally friendly nope! Hope it gets better I'm hopeful.
