“Guests will be able to meet Mario & Luigi ( bonnethead sharks ) from our ocean deck, the sharks who are the first known species to be omnivores eating both meat and veggies,” leaders explained. “See what the sharks are fed and how diets are prepared as aquarists prep food for the Black Tip Reef sharks.
