The Albuquerque Aquarium, located in Albuquerque, New Mexico, is a facility of the Albuquerque Biological Park and is located next door to the Rio Grande Botanic Garden.

The aquarium exhibits Rio Grande freshwater species and Gulf of Mexico saltwater species from a variety of habitats, including estuarine, surf zone, shallow waters, coral reefs, open ocean and deep ocean. The highlight of the aquarium is a 285,000 gallon ocean tank where brown, sandtiger, blacktip, and nurse sharks swim alongside brilliantly colored reef fish, eels, sea turtles and open ocean species. Every day divers enter the tank to do daily chores (like feeding).

Other exhibits include a retired Gulf Shrimp Fishing boat, Koi fish, Jellyfish, seahorses, model ships, and an eel tunnel. A restaurant and a gift shop are located in the building.

In January 2008, three blacktip shark pups were born at the Albuquerque Aquarium. The births were caught on video, and are now [http://www.cabq.gov/biopark/aquarium/blacktipsharkpups.html available for viewing] on Google Video.
