    Default GA Aquarium=ehhh...

    took the wife to the aquarium....neither of us had been before...neither of us were impressed at all...after going to ripley's aquarium in gatlinburg, this one seemed kinda crappy...they had amazing fish, but not enough viewing area for the fish...you can't even really see the whale sharks because they swim at the top of the water, or at least they did...i would go back if it was a family thing, or if my wife wanted to, but def. not to just go...

    Yeah i really wasnt impressed either. It might have been because when we went it was a little crowded. But I definitly enjoyed the Tennesee Aq. more

    I didn't really think it was worth the money. Still nice as hell.. a lot of nice looking fish and I got to stare down a penguin. That was the highlight.

    Good news is...annual pass pays itself off in two visits, and you can trade your tickets for them on your way out.

    tickets were a little steep but at the same time, understandably so. The only time i went was on a wednesday, actually around 2pm and shit was so packed when we got there, there may have been 5 parking spots left TOPS but still a nice experience

    I agree, it's got some cool stuff but it's not very well layed out. And WAY too overcrowded!

    it sucked. its just like every other aquarium out there. but this is the "biggest" one.. whoopie..tickets were only $22 or $27 i forgot. it wasnt expensive at all.. and i guess if you never been to an aquarium then it would be a nice experience for a first-timer.
