Kid-sized insects, video game characters, superheroes and a few other clever costumes roamed the Tennessee Aquarium during the annual Aquascarium celebration. Families trick-or-treated alongside mermaids and pirates, posed for photos with scuba-diving characters and enjoyed the company of spooky critters and fish. With a mission to connect people with nature and inspire nature stewardship, the aquarium used this family-friendly night to encourage curiosity about the world’s biodiversity.
