It's about what you'd expect from an aquarium in a landlocked state. I love going and seeing the fish and other animals, I just have a hard time justifying the entry price for the experience you get. If you're coming with kids, absolutely bring them! It's a great experience for them! But as an adult it leaves a bit to be desired (especially compared with aquariums in states like California or Oregon). I will say this is one of the only places I got to see a mantis shrimp, but the second time I visited it was hiding and we couldn't find it in the tank.
The bar has decent food, and the experience of eating with the fish in the background is fun. The Ray experience at the end of the aquarium loop is fun! It's always fun to be able to touch and interact with sea critters.

I'd say that the aquarium is a great place to visit once.
