I was pleasantly surprised by the downtown Denver aquarium! Based on the mixed reviews i heard, i wasn’t expecting much. However, I was certainly impressed! Maybe it was because I love and keep some of the freshwater fish there, or because i got to play around with some rays… Ultimately, this was much larger and far more impressive than i thought it was going to be. I filmed this a few months ago while in Denver before my trip back home from Reefstock where i gave a presentation. I filmed much more footage than is shown in this video and there is at LEAST twice as many aquarium as shown… BUT a lot of these tanks are lit by the natural sunlight that pours in from the ceiling. I went at night time not knowing this, so unfortunately it was too difficult to film or see into most of the tanks. I did however figure i would share this experience with you guys anyways. The fish were MASSIVE monster sized animals! Especially that freshwater section. A very good reminder how big some of these guys get and how long they can live for! Perhaps its something to think about before you decide to make an impulse buy and get yourself in over your head with these.

Hi joey, don't you ever feel a little akward when filming in public places and talking to the camera out load? I was just thinking about it, I think I would...
@thekingofdiy

Mike Franke nah, I'll never see any of those people ever again. It's more awkward when people know who I am. Makes it difficult to film anything.

William Tufts I got in trouble for mauling the rays. Only supposed to use 2 fingers to touch them I guess. Also not allowed to shove small children out of the way. There was no sign posted for that though, so I got off with a warning.

Was just at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, CA yesterday. The lighting is much better, as is the diversity of species. They have a massive salt water aquarium that is just amazing to behold. Lots of interactive touch tanks as well, including rays. I haven't been to the Denver aquarium yet, but I'll have to check it out if I get the chance. Thanks for the preview.

I live in a small town in Colorado, and go to Denver 6 or 7 times a year, but I have gone to the aquarium twice. The flash flood zone is extremely cool if your willing to get soaked! It's usually filled up with kids! It was so weird to have you record everything especially because not many RU-vidrs go to Denver or Colorado! The ray feeding is really cool as well.
