The old sea cabs at The Living Seas are being replaced by "clamobiles" as the pavilion's Nemo-themed makeover nears completion, Walt Disney World President Al Weiss confirmed during remarks at the opening of Expedition Everest. "The Seas with Nemo & Friends" will open as a new attraction in the pavilion this fall, featuring new technology (probably similar to that being installed at the Nemo Submarine Voyage at
Disneyland) that will make it appear that the stars of Finding Nemo are actually swimming along with the 65 species of marine life inside the huge tank.
The attraction will supposedly take place immediately following the events of the movie. After boarding your "clamobile" at a coral reef, you meet Mr. Ray and his class on a field trip as they find that Nemo has wandered off. You join the search, meeting Dory, Bruce, Marlin, Squirt and Crush along the way. The attraction has a musical finale that provides a happy ending.

The attraction exits into the rest of the pavilion, now known simply as "Sea Base." The existing attractions, such as Turtle Talk with Crush and Bruce's Shark World, will continue to operate as before.
