This article just came out with which are the better aquariums to visit. http://www.travelchannel.com/interes...iums-by-region

I've been to five of these, so it looks like I need to visit a few more. Here's my list:

Dallas World Aquarium
Georgia Aquarium
Waikiki Aquarium
Monterey Bay Aquarium
Aquarium of the Pacific

I saw the outside of the National Aquarium once, but there was no time to visit. We ate nearby, and I was able to see the glass structure from afar.

This is a picture taken at the Waikiki Aquarium, with a very old Gigas Clam that has been in captivity successfully.

How many have you been to on this list from the article?

You must check out Shedd Aquarium in downtown Chicago. You could literally spend days there (which I have : ) )!

Carl, great to see you on ReefAddicts! I didn't leave it out; those were the ones I've visited that were part of the list in the article linked above. I've been to quite a few public aquariums over the years.
