Mote Marine,

"Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, to the greatest show on concrete! Mote Marine's Unfinished Aquarium is not just an exhibit; it's a construction-themed carnival where hard hats and jackhammers steal the spotlight. Marvel at the construction crew, a bustling ensemble of real-life action figures. With their dance of concrete ballet and symphony of power tools, you'll forget you came for fish in the first place. The real stars? Bob the Builder and his sidekick, Jack the Jackhammer Juggler – they're giving Cirque du Soleil a run for its money! But wait, there's more! The Heavy Machinery Orchestra takes center stage, transforming mundane construction noises into a rhythmic masterpiece. Backhoes become bass drums, and cement mixers moonlight as percussion maestros. Move over, Beethoven – Mote's construction site is the new concert hall of chaos! As for the fish, fear not, dear visitor, because they've hired the finest fish impersonators in the industry. Watch as construction workers don fins and tails, attempting to fool you with their aquatic dance moves. It's a performance that'll leave you questioning the authenticity of every goldfish you've ever met. By fall 2024, I've been promised an underwater utopia, where the real fish will join the ranks of these construction virtuosos. Until then, revel in the surreal splendor of Mote's Construction Carnival, where the only thing swimming is the imagination of the workers – and possibly a rogue rubber duck in the incomplete fountain. Don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime extravaganza!"
