Somebody at the aquarium didn't do their homework - the photo, name, and stated range are for three different species. The photo is Crescent-tail Bigeye which is found in the Indo-pacific, the given name refers to Pristigenys serrula of the Eastern Pacific, and the range given is for the Atlantic Bigeye.
 
Has anyone been here before? What's this place like? I'm thinking of going to Squam Lakes Science Center this summer, and am trying to decide whether it is also worth going another hour out of my way to see this small aquarium as well.
