The Albuquerque Aquarium is part of the Albuquerque Biological Park that also includes the Rio Grande Zoo and the city's Botanical Gardens. The aquarium opened in 1996 and follows the water and the life it sustains from the headwaters of the Rio Grande to the Gulf of Mexico.

The aquarium has had to ship out its sea dragons to cut back on costs.

I visited this charming little aquarium several years ago. It is very small, but well done. It makes a wonderful piece of the fantastic Biopark.
