Exhibits

The gigantic aquarium in downtown Atlanta features some of the world’s most amazing exhibits where from the tiniest sea creature to the bus sized sharks swim around in complete harmony to its surroundings. This huge ark like facility built on a twenty-acre plot has very strong layout and interior design enthralling the immense visitors.

This entertaining Atlanta aquarium boasts five exhibits, all arranged uniquely different than the other, portraying scenes of the real ocean creatures. Added with the clever lightings, the visitors are given the experience of a lifetime, beckoning them to roam around the amazing array of exhibits. Visitors on entry get to walk the long plank towards Georgia Explorer gallery that exhibits a special touch tanks filled with an array of critters like horseshoe crabs, starfish and stingrays, including a fascinating and gentle turtle. Next is the Tropical Diver section, where you will be hypnotized by the huge treasure of colorful tropical fish as well as other non fish creatures such as sea dragon, the exotic little seahorse, squiggly jellyfish, all living harmoniously in a real life coral reef. Another array of exhibit is found in River Scout, designed cleverly for the audience to feel as if you are actually floating in a river.

Here you get to witness a great number of deadly piranha, those sleek eels, whiskered catfish, and arawanas, not to forget the eerily glowing electric fish. The other gallery that exhibits the lovable and entertaining sea otters is the Cold water Quest; there are also the jackass penguins and a huge octopus. Here the five beluga whales are the main attractions, where people can watch them gulping up herrings; no wonder this beautiful animal weighs about two tons each. Finally the most captivating is the Ocean Voyager with its wide window, which is home to some eighty five thousand fishes, including the only two whale sharks found outside Asia.
