Okay, well, we just finished going through the aquarium
off the boardwalk here in Coney Island. I'm super impressed.
Okay, here we are. We are at Coney Island, but we're coming into the aquarium. I'm excited.
And this is New York's aquarium. I think it might be the only aquarium in New York,
but let me tell you, I can't wait to show you this video. Make sure you

Look at the fish in here. Look at these guys in Coney Island, an aquarium right on the boardwalk.
Here's a sea lion exhibit. What's in there, hon?
The sea lions. He just swam across here. See the bubbles over here?
I wish he would come up on the rocks. I want to see him closer.
Like that trick?
Let's continue on here, but look over here. More coral reefs, and this is real coral in here.
Okay, so this is something that cannot be missed. This reef tank. It is stunning.
My camera is not going to do it justice with all this beautiful coral, not to mention
all the incredible saltwater fish in this tank. And here's some smaller tanks with more coral.
I see some euphelia in there and some encrusting corals. Oh, and here's some beautiful anemones
hanging out. This is the aquarium lab where they're actually growing coral here
to put in their bigger tanks.
Here's the lake fish.
What's in there, hon?
Lake victorious fish.
More lake fish. All right, and this has got to be one of your highlights when you're visiting
the New York National Aquarium. It's this tunnel aquarium that you get to walk through.
The sharks will swim right over your heads, and you swear you're inside the tank and can
touch them. Don't miss this tunnel tank, as I like to call it. And make sure you look deep
into this tank because there's corals growing in the background. Stunning, beautiful.
And this New York aquarium was one of our stops when we were filming the Coney Island boardwalk.
Don't miss that video. I'll put a link in the description. So I have been to many aquariums.
I got some links in the description for some others, but this one ranks right up at the top
of these other aquariums I've visited. These are the fish of Brazil. Says Brazil Flooded Forest.
Are these a piece of piranha? Look at the size of these guys. That guy is huge.
There's that catfish. You walk through this aquarium, they got all kinds of little unique
places to stop and see. Oh, looks like they're feeding them up here.
All right, this is cool. Do you see the penguins they got in here?
It says they're the African penguins. African penguins. And look at this penguin guy just
waddling around. I just want to take one of these guys home. Aren't they just so precious? Look at
them. This little fella had some severe itching problems. I hope he gets that itch.
Not quite yet, but he is trying his darndest. Call one of your penguin buddies over here.
They even got sharks here. You ready for the sharks, honey? I'm ready. Let's go see some sharks.
I'll tell you one thing. This shark exhibit building is really cool inside.
Look at all these sharks. They just swim right over top your head.
Oh, look at that. That's a big grouper right there.
And there's a stingray swimming by. This is like the stingray exhibit.
These guys are having a blast.
Look at this little crawl in area where you can see the sharks up close. See the kids in the shark
tank. There's a big shark down there. Look at the settings here. It's beautiful. Look at this.
There's a lot of fish in here. In this shark tank.
What's this? See Coney Island Market there. The Real Cost Cafe. I don't know what this is.
Oh, and it's very educational for the kids. Here you can find about seafood
that comes out of the ocean. And they got an outdoor area with some cafe food. Over there's
the Seaside Cafe. And there's a little wild treats cart. There's the exhibit I was looking for.
Spineless Creatures. There's the entrance to Spineless. Let's see what we're going to see in
here. Jellyfish tank. Oh, this place is awesome. Look at this really cool exhibit.
It's got jellyfish in there. I love this tank too. Look at this jellyfish wall.
This is incredible. I love jellyfish for sure.
Look at this spider crab. I don't think I've ever seen one of these in an aquarium.
That is so cool.
Oh, look at this. It's like you're walking into the aquarium.
Oh, and they got a great gift store here at the aquarium. Look at all these animals.
What did we see here? Penguins. Oh, there's turtles, some sharks, dolphins. Oh man,
all kinds of stuffed animals in here.
This is called Play Aquarium. All kinds of things, activities for the kids to do in here it looks
like. Look at all this coral that you can touch. It's pretty neat for sure. Oh, look at this kelp
forest here. These fish are swimming with the kelp. This is like a little playground. The floor
is cushiony and just all kinds of things for the kids to do in here. The underwater forest.
That's really neat too. Look at these guys. I think they're just sleeping there.
Look at this exhibit. There are birds in here just freely walking around.
Looks like a little roadrunner. All right, this is worth the admission
to this aquarium. These birds. What are you hollering at? Huh? What are you hollering at?
Huh? Why don't you guys fly out of this thing? Look here. They got a touch tank for the kids.
That is cool, right? And when you're in this National Aquarium, make sure you don't miss this.
We almost walk right past this not finding it. It's an underwater viewing area where you get to
see the sea lions playing and swimming around. They even have a seating area in here if you
want to stay for a little while. I could watch these guys all day playing and swimming around
in this underwater exhibit. And then when you're done watching them, go back upstairs.
They got an aqua theater here to see the sea lions up close.
