I guess I was lucky to see both the shark and the sick whale when I visited the aquarium this past Spring. They are both dead now.
That's sad.
If anyone who has been to both the ATL and Monterey Bay, CA aquariums will know that the latter is FAR superior. Just like the idiots in ATL to build a multi-million-dollar aquarium that is not only poor on the education side but way too damned commercial. Each exhibit area has some corporate logo next to it, be it Home-Deport or Southern Company, etc. And what about the written/educational descriptions next to each viewing window/water tank? One sentence or two at best. The place is a POS! Go to a real aquarium in Monterey Bay, CA.
