🌎💧 What an un-fish-gettable day! 💧🌎

The Windsor-Essex Aquarium had an amazing time celebrating Earth Day at Malden Park! From start to finish, the energy was incredible—and we loved connecting with so many curious, enthusiastic families 🐠✨

One of the highlights? Getting creative with all the kids who stopped by to make aquatic-themed masks and bracelets! 🎭🐚 Watching their imaginations come to life with ocean-inspired designs was truly the best part of our day.

We also had a blast sharing more about our nonprofit, our mission, and how we’re working to bring an aquarium experience to our community while promoting conservation and appreciation for aquatic life 🌊💙

Thank you to everyone who came out, said hello, and supported us—we’re so excited for what’s ahead!

Do fish really have a 3-second memory? 🐟 Not quite! Research shows many fish can remember things for months, learn routines, and even recognize places and other fish. Their memory is much stronger than the common myth suggests.
