New Animals

Best described as swimming golf balls or ping pong balls with fins, Spiny Lumpsuckers are an absolutely adorable new addition to Shore Gallery! These small fish measure only 1-2 inches in length. They aren’t very good swimmers because of their rounded body shape and small fins, but they sure are fun to watch!

New baby cuttlefish have been added to the exhibit in Seahorses: Unbridled Fun! These adorable cuttlefish are small now, but growing fast! Related to octopus and squid, they have the unique ability to change the color and texture appearance of their skin and squirt ink!

These long slender fish have narrow, elongated jaws with needlelike teeth and red tipped fins. They hang out just under the surface of the water and look like miniature barracuda. They lay thousands of eggs with only a small handful surviving to adulthood.
