Sea world is declining because animal shows are no longer a big draw. This is why circuses are closing. Things like blackish only accelerated the inevitable or brought attention to the decline. Cirque du soleil saw this coming years ago and built a brand off of human acrobatics and technology, which has been a disney staple for years.
Yes and no. I've said it before amimals are as popular as ever. That's the thing aquariums have proliferated. Shark tunnels are a dime a dozen. Zoos have taken new habatats exhibits and gone with it. The animals are part of the SeaWorld Experience. Mako should have had a Shark Tunnel queue and the the coaster could have incorporated a acrylic viewing tube either right before the lift hill or at the final brake run before the station a drop into an open shark mouth somewhere along the run.
I'll say it again and again, a hotel with aquarium view rooms would print money a lobby with a Berlin Blu like aquarium with elevators would be part of it.
