This can probably be extrapolated to other Sea Life facilities since they have very similar collections in my experience. Although the order of the rooms at Kansas City was different from Charlotte and Detroit. I went with the species listed on signs even when I didn’t see the species because it’s an aquarium and I didn’t want to ID every fish. The signage in the largest tank wasn’t working. I went with what I saw and used other sea life threads to fill in some gaps but take that species list with a grain of salt.
