It's not a full aquarium, but in the Seattle Science Center there's a small (maybe 10'x20'?) hands-on lagoon that has fish, anemones, shellfish, and other stuff like that, with an attendant in the middle to answer questions and make sure nobody runs off with crabs or anything.
The Island Bay Marine Education centre lets you handle starfish, sea slugs, crabs, and other assorted biota. For that matter, the aquarium I visited in Noumea did, as well.
Wow. They've also got his Little Sister friend made-up and/or postprocessed appropriately to look like the weird "next gen" overemphasised lighting that's all the rage these days.

The Monterey Bay Acquarium has a huge touching exhibit. Mostly tidepool life, which the kids love, and also sting rays (snipped for safety).

And glowy eyes. Don't forget the glowy eyes.

Holy shit. It wasn't until I saw this comment that I realized that this wasn't a render from Bioshock 2.
From the ebay listing (currently $740, reserve not met): "Creepy Fiancèe shown above is not part of this auction". :oD
Creator's in the Big Daddy suit, his fiancèe is playing the Little Sister.
I love that the auction notes include "batteries not included".
