I thought it would be fun to see photos from all the different public aquariums that RC members have been to. Did a google search to see just how many public aquariums there are and found this great site.
I'll start things out with a wallpaper-sized shot of the reef tank at the Long Beach Aquarium of the Pacific:

I've been to a couple o the public aquariums here in Texas, so here are a few of the better pictures.

From the Dallas World Aquarium:

Aquarium of the Bay, located at Pier 39 San Francisco

The highlight there is the pair of seven gill sharks in the massive 700,000 gallon exhibit

lol- my picture was taken last week! I hadn't been in a few months and was very happily surprised to see great improvements in the tropical displays- lots of improvements.
Here's a really lucky shot I got last week- I was strolling along looking at all the fish I turned around and the turtle was staring right at me:
