I live about 2 hours from the new Georgia Aquarium. It is amazing, as they have millions and millions of gallons of water. I was a little dissappointed with the freshwater section though. They only had one large tank with a wide assortment of fish in it, a medium tank with a smaller assortment including oscars, etc, then about 8 small one-species tanks with things like piranhas, etc. All-in-all, it was still worth the money.

There's no whale shark, that would take a much larger facility.
 
so i know this is a really old thread, but i searched "underwater adventures" and this is what came up. I work there and the largest alligator gar is named Dana we feed her mackeral, herring, sometimes bonita. They truly are amazing. I am more of a saltwater girl and didn't really care too much about the alligator gar...until i started diving in that exhibit. Dana is seriously amazing. I will sit on the tunnel and have a staring contest and she will inch closer and closer to me. She gets really close and i am the one that has to back away from her. If you guys want to make a trip to the aquarium, i can let you help feed them...just pm me.
 
PM sent! Opportunity of a lifetime!
 
opportunity of a lifetime is right,sure wish i lived a lot closer! i did get to see all the fish at the cleveland zoo eat one time, now that was cool 2 3-4ft. redtails and 2 3-4ft. arowana's along with some huge pacus and some huge teshuriqui catfish(not sure on the spelling), all in one tank. Unfortunately no gars though, let us know how that went
