Well I gave the 3 tiger rays to this aquarium in LI for there breeding project. Place was pretty cool but all but 2 setups were saltwater, which is still cool. Camera battery died and pics weren't all that clear but here they are. the amazon exhibit was great and some of the silver aros were over 3 ft and like 8" wide from the top. Some of the stripers were easily over 40 lbs, I'd say much more but not exactly sure. They also had a nice bumble bee grouper in a complete salt setup with some lionfish. Didnt get pics of everything.

Nice pictures! Those stripers make me wanna go fishing!!! Some guys try to keep those bumblebee groupers in brackish setups, but from what I've seen they belong in salt.

there are indeed freshwater BB groupers.
 
Cool looking place.
