Sure, it sounds mundane, but let me tell you that this was one of the coolest underwater things I've seen. The scuba diver feeds chunks of meat to the sting rays and you can see them chewing it and swallowing it in their mouths. Did you know that sting rays' mouths are on their under sides? Crazy! \n\nThey've got so many weird and exotic fishes in here, from leopard sharks to fishes with unicorn horns on their heads. It was really neat to see the scuba diver interacting with the sharks and sting rays, and the kids around the giant cylindrical tank were going nuts. I guess there's a mermaid that also poses in the tank, but we didn't get to see her. \n\nThis place is off the strip. I wasn't expecting much because no one I talked to knew about this place (it's right by the Bass Pro shop at Outdoor World). However, I'm glad I trekked off the strip to see this cool (FREE!) aquarium. \n\nCall ahead to find out when feeding times are. It's the best part :)\n\n*See pics*"^^ . "5"^^ . . . "9"^^ . . "5"^^ .
