Coming to Nashville this weekend

Any reef related sites I should visit? Isn't there a reef restaurant in the mall?

Yep. Its worth seeing IMO. You should also call ahead and arrange a behind the scenes tour (I think it only cost about 5 bucks). There is also Aquatic Critter and Emerald Bay Fish stores. Aquatic Critter is on the south side of town and Emerald Bay is on the West side.

There is The Aquarium restaurant in the mall but as far as I know, there's no reef, just fish (unless they've added coral since I was last there). There's a ray touch pool next door to that, but I've never been in there.

If you're looking for an LFS, look into Emerald Bay, Aquatic Critter, and Fins.

Last I heard (haven't seen), the aquarium resturant setup a coral exhibit over near the stingray pool. Even though the main display isn't a reef tank, its worth seeing. The behind the scenes tour lets you see their massive skimmers, pumps, sand filters, etc.

Definitely do "The Aquarium" restaurant. The food surprised me as to how excellent it was!!! The $5.00 "behind the scenes" tour is worth it, also. Walking on the catwalks above the 200,000 gallon tank is very cool!!!
