Fun day with the fishes 8/1/2005

The NE Aquarium is a great place for people of all ages to get up close and personal with their aquatic friends. Live presentations are offered hourly, and the penguin exhibit on the bottom floor is especially popular amongst visitors. The large fish tanks spirals up and down 4 floors of exhibits and activities. The new exhibit for the year is Jellyfish, which has a really beautiful display of the creatures and a button that changes the background of the tank which really illuminates the features of the jellyfish. It is quite cool! Bring the whole family...the New England Aquarium is a great time! more

the thing you can't miss 7/15/2005

The NE aquarium is not just a place for students to go on field trips. You can see so many fishes going about their daily life with other turtles, sharks, etc. They have exhibits on exotic fishes. It would be a treat to bring your daughter or niece to spend time with them. They sometime have shows but you would have to pay for that too. The atmosphere gives off a purplish lighting and a cold fishy smell. Nevertheless it is a great place for all ages to witness. more
