We're Committed
To Protecting Natural Resources & Ecological Balance
We make every attempt to purchase our livestock from certified and
reputable collectors and breeders. In those cases where captive-bred
fish and invertebrates are available, we will select them over their
wild-caught counterparts. We understand that this may at times increase
cost. However, the benefits to you are a healthier specimen that
is already accustomed to closed systems. This policy also reduces
destructive collection practices and promotes greater interest in
captive husbandry.
More Than
Just A Retail Store... A Living Gallery
This gallery includes 14 distinct ecohabitats with over 3,500 gallons.
For your viewing pleasure, we offer a SPECTACULAR 600 gallon octagonal
reef exhibit. It's stellar! We call it "The Fantasy Dive".
Its inhabitants have meshed into a perfect ecosystem over its five
year history. Acroporas and other SPS corals carpet the upper reaches
of the tank. Soft corals, gorgonians and LPS corals blend seamlessly
over the bottom two-thirds of the system. The variety of fish and
their dazzling display of color will make you gasp as you walk in
the main entrance--most people do! Schools of anthias, tangs &
chromis swarm through the water in an ever-changing rainbow parade.
No public aquarium offers a sight more breathtaking. Our 200 gallon
"Heart of the Amazon" discus exhibit samples one
of the most fascinating and ecologically diverse biosystems on the
planet. The discus are flawless and their colors are intoxicating...
not to mention amazingly friendly. Marvel over "Tranquil
Bay", our outstanding 11-year-old 150 gallon reef plenum
system. Everyone who sees it is mesmerized by huge stands of euphyllias
that tower over the substrate, swaying in gentle currents. It also
boasts giant clams, shy garden eels, established mangroves and colorful
gorgonians. It radiates complete tranquility. Now, on to our 150
gallon planted show system. Its our "Ancient Jungle"
and it will make you feel like a fish out of water. In this
secret underwater forest, the plants and fish exhibited are in peaceful
harmony. They should be, they've grown together for ten years. You
won't easily pass by without wondering what it would be like to
be a fish in the perfect garden utopia. Our anemone show system
always hypnotizes--parents and children alike. Graceful tentacles
reach out from every corner of this tank in dazzling beauty. Vibrant
reds, greens, blues and yellows suffuse over every inch of rock--truly
a priceless gem. See if you can figure our why we call it "The
Protected World"... Our 400 gallon "Slice Of Open
Sea" exhibit demands absolute atten--TION!! These are the
odd-shaped, brilliant regals of their realm... Look closely, some
things are never what they seem with a quick glance. The "Tiny
Tentacles" exhibit opens more mouths than a dentist. Jellyfish
thriving and reproducing in captive splendor is a wondrous site--we're
not so sure they think its captive though... wait a minute, do jellyfish
think? And believe it or not, that's only six of our fourteen
exhibits! We didn't even mention our 1,600 gallon "Predator
Lagoon"! Come see them all. Bring the entire family and
make us a stop on your next vacation! We provide comfortable seating
and perfect ambiance for you to laze the day away while observing
our display systems. We are Atlanta's only unofficial public aquarium.
