I'm currently up in Vancouver for the end of my Spring Break, so of course I had t make a visit to the Vancouver Aquarium. This place still holds up as an incredible aquarium, especially with all the new species moves they've made since my previous visit in August. Now it was very, very busy today since it is Saturday, but I got a good luck at every tank (much better than the last time) so this list should be at least 98% accurate. Some species I couldn't ID since they don't have signge, so I'll update them with the correct ID later if I can find one.
As of 29/3/25 ;
Bill Reid Plaza: No exhibits (I believe this used to be called the "Ocean Courtyard", but this is the front portion of the aquarium where the entrance and exit are)
Tech Connections Gallery: This is like the center of the main building, with a giant globe leading to each gallery's entrance. There are two entrance tanks here that aren't a part of the other galleries, one for Lake Malawi Cichlids and another for an assortment of local species
(Lake Malawi Tank)
This time I actually remembered to take pictures of the various location signs that are hung up showing what area is being represented, so I can label them now
"Long Beach"
'Tropical New Guinea' (The only tank with Freshwater Australian species in the entire gallery)
Closing: This aquarium still continues to blow my mind. I absolutely love the place, they definitely do their local exhibits like no one else in the Pacific Northwest. The other areas of the Aquarium are also awesome, I highly recommend the place to anyone if you have time to visit.
As of 29/3/25 ;
- Species in Green are those who are on exhibit, but aren't signed
- Species in Red are those are signed, but not on exhibit (or that I didn't see)

Closing: This aquarium still continues to blow my mind. I absolutely love the place, they definitely do their local exhibits like no one else in the Pacific Northwest. The other areas of the Aquarium are also awesome, I highly recommend the place to anyone if you have time to visit.
