The Washington Post reviewed the Georgia Aquarium this past Sunday and have come out very positively for the Aquarium. From the review:

At Ocean Voyager, we were enthralled by a tunnel through the world’s biggest aquarium tank, which holds 6.2 million gallons and nearly 100,000 fish. Another viewing window was the size of a drive-in movie screen, and it gave knockout views of sawfish, giant grouper and schools of tiny golden trevallies that swarmed the whale sharks. Of the trevallies, we wondered: “Um, guys, should you get so close to the mouth?”

Still, the Cold Water gallery was our favorite, with its enormous, robotic-looking Japanese spider crabs, playful otters, creepy octopus and sea lions zipping around like chunky torpedoes. Our all-aquarium favorite? The belugas, whose graceful motions seemed almost choreographed.

…

CONCLUSION: It’s a little pricey, but the Georgia Aquarium is well worth a visit. The “biggest” status largely derives from the Ocean Voyager tank, which has more than three-quarters of the aquarium’s water and most of its fish. And it works: We felt immersed in a slice of ocean.

We are going next week, so I will give a more thorough first person report. We will have 3 generations at the aquarium, so it should give me a good idea  of the successes and pitfalls that you will face visiting.
