Mandalay Bay aquarium

Has anyone ever been there? Worth the $20 to get in? Heading up in a couple weeks looking for come cool tanks to check out! Figure 1.3 million gallons has to be worth seeing!

 

I wish, last time I was in vegas my friends where to pushy to do their things and not mine, :[ Not a very fun trip.

20 bucks eh? Id give it a shot anyways. its just 20 bucks less in slots or cards

 

I was there right after it opened and at that time, I could honestly say it was NOT worth it. Since then several friends have been and they say it was awesome and definitely worth the 20 bucks.

 

AS a fish person I hate to say it but it's worse now then when it opened

 

Glad to know I wasnt the only one that felt that way.

 

I was there a few years ago. It was decent but there are definitely better places.

 

thank you for starting this thread! i was talking about planning a trip to the Georgia Aquarium and some guy was telling me that Mandalay was way better. i'm glad to hear the others input.

 

I just got back from Vegas myself. Didn't get over to Mandalay Bay, but their aquarium is supposed to have quite a few sharks in it from what I understand. IMO unless i'm going to an actual true-blue aquarium instead of a "shark tank", i'll save my money for craps.

Behind the desk at the Mirage is ~2,200 gallon FO aquarium with one of those fake epoxy reef backgrounds. They probably have over 100 fish in there, 30+ species and it's free. Something to check out (and carnigie deli down the hall) if you're on that end of the strip. I'll post some pics from my terrible camera phone if I can dig up the wires for it later tonight.

 

We went a few years ago because one of our friends is really into sharks! If you like the sharks it was ok but I didn't think anywhere near the 20 bucks to get it.

 

wow, guess that solves that, are there any tanks worth looking at in vegas then?
