Home of the Lunkquarium

The Lunkquarium is gone. They have added a restaurant and all the fish are now in little tanks. Use to be a neat place to stop and walk around.

Alligator.

Home of the Lunkquarium

Alligator is real. Food is great and exotic. There is alligator, elk, frog legs, rattlesnake and escargot on the menu. Awesome Bloody Marys. Many aquariums.
