Plan Your Trip:
Would you spend $30,000 for a fish!?! The Waikiki aquarium thought it was worth more apparently, because they turned down the offer. Find out why in this video of a unique Peppermint Anglefish that is on public display at the Waikiki Aquarium.
Whether you are sightseeing or hanging out at the beach, be sure to schedule time for this aquarium.
