No worries at all!
Budget reasons?

Shift from keeping cetaceans in private institutions are happening worldwide. Disney is just following a trend that's growing.
Well that’s good. I don’t think zoo’s (and nahtazū’s) are evil as long as it’s for conservation and such, and if they are kept in good care, but if it’s better for the animals that they arent , then I’m all for it.

I'm not sure if it's a permanent shift, or if they're being moved just for the duration of the construction that may be going on topside around their enclosure. Lou the manatee is a permanent move.
Moving marine mammals to other facilities during infrastructure work is also a trend lately.

If that's the case, then the next infrastructure change will probably be removing that barrier in the main reef tank.

Honestly, I can get behind that. Dolphins are too intelligent to be kept in a relatively confined space.
Same reason I was never a big fan of Shamu back in the day.

I'm on board with that, but I hope they invest in bringing more fish and other aquatic life to the aquarium. The main tank looked really empty last time I was there, especially compared to other large aquariums.

Nah, everything has been minor changes here and there.
I wouldn't look into it too much.

They need to demo the whole building. It's a joke now; thanks to places like the Georgia Aquarium.

This is a silly statement. Many people don't make trips to Atlanta or other cities with massive aquariums, and still find plenty of joy experiencing The Seas. I don't believe The Seas has ever been an attempt to be the biggest or best aquarium experience in the country.

That is what was genius about the original iteration of the pavilion....Yes it was an aquarium, but more than that, it was a journey to a Seabase... It was never just about the aquarium... because as you say, there are other places with aquariums.... They need to bring back the journey...

When you go to the Georgia Aquarium you buy admission to just the Georgia Aquarium. The Seas is one section that requires no separate admission in a huge theme park that you paid to visit. It's apples to oranges, it's fine.

When it opened it was an integrated attraction with a unique story and experience.
Now it’s just a rundown, sad remnant of itself.
Oh, but with Nemo slapped on it as lipstick.
