A lot of people gave this really high reviews, but to me.....it was aight. Was not exactly a great experience due to the fact that the whole Ripley experience lasted a whole flimsy hour and a half (and that is us walking and literally enjoying every room and mirror to take a look at multiple things throughout. In terms of variety of fishes and other aquatic finds, yes there is a decent variety, but definitely not worth the amount paid or a trip planned specifically for the experience. Gift shop do not have much either to look forward to and I can probably find nicer finds at Ebay or Amazon at this rate. The only thing that I believe made the experience relatively okay was the fact that you could experience touching some of the fishes and small sharks that they have available for you to touch and feel (however, the small shark touching experience had to be stopped due to the fact that apparently kids were too rough on it and it got pissed LOL......go figure....) but anyways, overall an okay experience that was neither amazing nor too horrendously bad.
