Editorial Review for Adventure Aquarium – by Janet Bukovinsky Teacher

In Short
This is one of only two American aquariums with a tank (Ocean Base Atlantic) large enough to accommodate tuna, which swim up to 35 mph while making sharp, sudden turns. The Touch-a-Shark tank allows visitors to watch live feedings of sand tiger and sand bar sharks, and pet smaller varieties. A glance into the 760,000-gallon Open Ocean Tank boasts seal shows, dive presentations and animal talks; visitors can also take an immersive, interactive journey from a Caribbean beach to a Deep Atlantic Sea Lab.
