Quoted: “Simply saying that the John G. Shedd Aquarium is the world’s largest indoor aquarium doesn’t really prepare you for the Shedd. Imagine walking along the rocky shores of the Pacific Northwest, stopping to gaze into tidal pools filled with sea anemones and starfish. The Shedd captures that experience, right down to the moist sea air. Then move on to the tropics. Observe life in the Caribbean Sea in the Shedd’s 90,000-gallon reef habitat. Watch divers swim among tarpons, sharks, and parrotfish, all the while giving a Darth Vader-esque narrative through microphones in their dive masks. Experience the flooding of the Amazon River, where you’ll see the fish (yes, including piranhas), but also snakes, giant river turtles, bird-eating spiders, and other creatures of this rainforest region
