NC Aquarium @ Fort Fisher is full of GOOD STUFF!

OctopusWaters of the Cape Fear
Are not as scary as in the original or the re-make of the movie.  The North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher welcomes visitors to tour the facility and take a journey down the Cape Fear River.  You will get to see the octopus, pictured above, up close and personal.  Visitors also get to meet Luna, a rare albino alligator, snakes, box turtles, moray eels, sharks, sea horses and so much more.  They are well staffed and ready to explain the habits and habitats of all the residents of the conservatory.  Holding 235,000 gallons, Cape Fear Shoals is the largest of the aquariums saltwater exhibits and is a two-story/360 degree view of a replica of an offshore reef.
Beautiful!
