2018-03-06 2nd Aquarium of the week - Atlantic City Aquarium

[Mark Shelly]

Atlantic City Aquarium was a nice stop between high school wrestling rounds in Atlantic City. They didn't have the Fu Man Chu lionfish or the Peacock Mantis Shrimp on display - Those tank were taken down. The sea horses have been moved to a much nicer display. I also don't recall the rockfish there the last time I went.
Here is the large tank.

This is the newer soft coral tank. I did not see any coralline algae yet.

Here is the more established hard coral reef tank,

A closer look at a SPS coral.

The sea horses in their new tank.

A ghost-like anemone.

This is supposed to be a juvenile fish found in the Absecon Bay. Does anyone recognize it?

Is it a porkfish?
