Photo Diary: Downtown Aquarium, Denver [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

Date: 2023-08-31

This very nice aquarium is, as the name says, right in downtown Denver. I always like looking at fishies.

Some photos from a visit. Alas, most of the fishies were not ID’d. Some of them I know. The rest are ID’d by Google Images—so it’s Google’s fault if they got it wrong.

For those who don't know, I live in a converted campervan and travel around the country, posting photo diaries of places that I visit.

The Downtown Aquarium

Inside the Aquarium

Guitarfish

Many of the tanks had baby Sea Stars

A lovely anemone

Stingray touch tank

This one was ID’d as a Crappie. He seemed interested in my camera.

This one was ID’d as a Texas Cichlid. It is apparently the only cichlid fish in North America.

This is ID’d as a Popeye Catalufa

This was ID’d as a Greenback Cutthroat Trout

Google says this is a Blacknose Butterflyfish (I know it is SOME kind of butterflyfish)

Google says this is a Clown Grouper

Google was all over the map with this one

Google says this is a Black Sea Bass

Google says this is a sea bass, but can’t decide which species

Google says this is a Tigerfish

I don’t why there are snakes in an Aquarium, but there you go. This is an Australian Woma python.

I know this is a Flounder, but I don’t know what species

I know this is a Bamboo Shark

I know this is a Wolf Eel

The blue ones are Surgeonfish, the big stripey ones are Pennant Fish
