Zoo Tours: Tropical Diver at the Georgia Aquarium

EPISODE 118
This tour group is back in Atlanta for yet another excursion through one of the world's grandest aquariums! Today we'll be taking a look at the Georgia Aquarium's Tropical Driver gallery. Designed as a relaxing conclusion to what's sure to be a thrilling visit, Tropical Diver showcases many of the world's different coral reefs. Fringing, barrier and even artificial - reefs that you can explore for yourself out in the wild. While it is one of Georgia's lesser known galleries, it's still full of surprises. There's an Eel infested sunken submarine, a tank framed with molten lava, and a towering 164,000 gallon reef full of living coral. This episode will show there's much more to the Georgia Aquarium beyond their whale sharks, it'll prove their conservation work is equal in importance to its role as an attraction, and this will mark the first time we've ever gone behind the scenes. Enjoy!

I like the oceanarium exhibit because each time you visit it feels like you are in the ocean

[@mathijstenklooster5741]

My favourite aquatic exhibit is the ocean at burgers zoo in the Netherlands. It is actually the largest living coral reef in a aquarium/zoo outside of australia

Hi local Georgian here. First off great video and I hope you enjoy the Georgian Aquarium. My favorite exhibit is the Predators of the deep at the Georgia Aquarium mostly because I love sharks their one of my favorite ocean creature. I hoping to do the shark cage before the the summer end. My second favorite is gator crossing also at the Georgia aquarium. It surprising very relaxing.

Favorite aquatic exhibit so far is the Open Ocean of SEA Aquarium. A giant aquarium that also houses Manta Rays.

[@michaelmisanik9787]

My favorite aquatic exhibit would probably be the Kelp forest at the Monterey Bay Aquarium. It was my first aquarium when I was 5 years old and ever since I was amazed at the beauty and wonders at the Kelp Forest exhibit.

Went to this place last year with my folks. All of it was amazing. It was just an overall good time.

[@lesliechu8879]

My sister has been there before back in 2019! Also, try visiting the Woodland Park Zoo, along with the Seattle Aquarium sooner or later! Plus, 3 zoo trivia questions for you & your girlfriend... 1) Which lion at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park passed away this year? 2) What is the name of the San Diego Zoo Safari Park's giraffe calf that got its front legs casted in order to walk right? 3) What animal did the San Francisco Zoo usually breed back in 1999 to 2001?

[@lesliechu8879]

@@GodIsAwesome121 Wrong! The answers are... 1) Izu 2) Msituni 3) White-Fronted Musk Ox

Are you going to do the Brookfield Zoo dolphin complex? It's not magnificent, but it does have a rich history of research.
