Austin Aquarium – Review

by

November 2013 saw the opening of the Austin Aquarium, an anticipated addition to the Austin area. Located off of Anderson Mill Rd., the aquarium houses 35 exhibits that feature a wide variety of amphibians, an interactive Lorikeet Aviary and a slew of cold water and tropical fish. There are also sharks, a stingray touch tank and reptiles. We finally had a chance to check out the aquarium, and we’re pleased to announce that it was a hit with us and the kids!
