Seattle Aquarium vs. Vancouver (BC) Aquarium

Question

We are flying to Seattle at the end of August and are doing a loop from Seattle, over to Olympic NP, up to Victoria, BC, then down to Vancouver, BC.  From what I've read, both of the above aquariums are first rate.  For those who have been to both, if you had to choose one over the other, which one would you choose and why?  Or, for those who have been to either, is there a particular exhibit that stands out?  Thanks!

We haven't been to VC but Seattle is nice. If you like amusement I found it laughable funny there is a Fish and Chips outside the Aquarium. Don't know why but that made me laugh aloud.

But it has been many years since we were at them. As well as several years between them.
