Default Vancouver aquarium behind the scenes

This might not even be a possibility anymore, but around 4 or 5 years ago I headed to Victoria to tour local shops. Along the way I had come across an individual who was involved with the aquarium, being a fellow hobbiest he was able to give me a behind the scenes tour.

Well one of my close friends and his girlfriend got engaged this past week, we are heading down to Vancouver to visit some friends. She keeps fish but on a small scale due to financial constraints. Her birthday is on September 3rd and thought would be a cool trip if I could connect with the individual or an individual who had given the tour. Either way we will be stopping at the aquarium for a walk through, timing is looking like September 8th.

Thanks Wes

Why not phone the aquarium and see if they provide tours?

Honestly didn't even think of that, just figured it would be a instant nope. I'll check tomorrow.
