In your opinion what is one of the best aquariums you know of that have great temperate displays?

In my experience, I would say the Monterrey and Birch at Scripps aquariums definitely have awesome set ups.

I like the tank with all the triggers and puffas. Too bad they don't have cowfish in there!

Cowfish are probably to docile to hold their own against puffers and triggers.

The sea otter exhibit at Monterey is nice - http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/efc/otter.aspx

If you watch the Open Sea exhibit cam you might see the Great White they have - http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/efc/efc_opensea/open_sea_cam.aspx

My personal favorite is the kelp forest display. http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/efc/kelp.aspx
