After visiting the Temple Lights Kyle and I decided we would go to the Living Aquarium on Saturday. It was pretty cool. I liked it alot more than the one in Vegas. We went over to the Pengiun area first. They were so much fun to watch. There were acouple pengiuns that were so interactive with the crowd. The one would dive into the water and swim around like he had a ton of caffiene in his system. He would swim fast in the water and then jump out of the water onto the land. He got to the point were he would almost run into the wall cuz he was going so fast in and out of the water.
This is the one that was going crazy in the water. He would stop infront of us and hang out for alittle bit and then go back to swimming like crazy. If we ever go back I think we will do the pengiun experience and get to see the penguins upclose.
This picture shows an eel and they had it hooked up to this christmas tree. When it was stunning it's prey the electricity in the water would light up the christmas tree. It was pretty cool to watch.
This aligator was just sitting there staring at all the people going by. It was kinda creepy.
This tortoise was HUGE! It also had a bag glued to its backside. They said she had been attacked by a shark and then hit by a boat so they glued a bag that has weights in it to keep her from floating to the top.
They had acouple areas of jellyfish. One of them were these jellyfish that were upside down. Their tenticles were floating to the top. The other one looked like the ones we see on TV all the time. Just floating around. The picture of these jellyfish are clear and they had a light hooked up that changed them from blue to red to purple and back to blue. They were neat to look at it.
We got to watch them feed this octapus. They put a plastic treasure chest in the water with food in it and the octapus grabbed it and tried to get the food out.
The seahorses were fun to watch too. They had a bunch of tanks with these guys in them. The first one had the biggest ones in it which is the first picture. I didn't realized they have a fin on their back that moves them around and then they use their tail to hold onto the grass and hang out. The last picture is of the tank that had the tiniest seahorses ever! They were so cute! They had to be the size of a dime or smaller.
It was really amazing all the animals, fish, and whatnots that were there. They had a bunch of fish, frongs, and other things that are native to Utah too. For the price it is a neat place! I recommend it!
