I've got a room at a private college close to Main and Broadway, no tanks to look at but seating and everything else is there.

Some Ideas:

-discounted day passes for a meet at the Aquarium (ie. We pay to get in but at better than normal group rate)

-guided tour around the marine facilities and areas behind the scenes
~show us how they feed the animals
~show us what the filtration system looks like

-some narration on maintenance of marine tanks
~how do they get/make their water. water change frequency
~what kind of lighting do they use
~additives
~filtration
~food mixture (bananas?)

-talk about breeding programs (I heard they bred seahorses)

-talk about success/failures of difficult species

-discuss future projects


Any other ideas?

I will be talking to there next week I think, I'll bring it up then. In the mean time try to concider a date and # of people. The amount affects what we can do.
