I felt bad for some of those animals. Sitting on concrete and not a lot of dirt. Very dingy, and dim, tanks weren’t the cleanest. I wouldn’t go back.

"Worst aquarium ever!!"
TripAdvisor user rating 1.0 out of 5
Reviewed October 04, 2025
Absolute bottom of the barrel experience, atmosphere was unlike any aquarium I’ve experienced and I mean that in the worst way possible. Almost everything was touchable which sure it’s cool to the nasty a** kids running around but the poor mammals and animals that spend their entire lives there is just cruel. The fish looked crampacked like sardines and the kangaroo and capybara looked dead. Would not recommend, the animals would be better off in the wild where there’s a death factor involved.

My nephew and I spent over an hour walking around the Aquarium. I was thinking that this would be awesome for kids, but come to find out, my nephew who is 20 had a great time! The tanks all have eye level viewing areas even for little kids. Lots of opportunities to feed the fish and animals (extra fee) and touching most if not all the aquatic life is encouraged. They also have animals, so there really is a lot to see and touch. Better and bigger than I thought.

"Beyond belief."
TripAdvisor user rating 1.0 out of 5
Reviewed July 22, 2025
Why this is called an aquarium escapes me. There are some fish and stingrays held in what we consider prisons. There are numbers of lizards, a snake, parrots, primates etc. All of the cages are small and simply cruel. If you want to interact with some of the animals you can, for a fee. Now my favorite part is the costs and fees to enter. My wife and I are seniors which is listed at $22.95 with an upcharge of 3.8% if you pay with a card. We paid cash and I gave the a hundred and it was actually almost $60. I said something and the teller mumbled taxes, etc. well there were $3 for some fee, taxes and $5 for paying cash. What a hustle. Save you time and money.

"Chuck E Cheese meets Animal Exploration"

Reviewed July 05, 2025
Zero Stars if it would let us. If you want an overpriced petting zoo look no farther. Overpriced admission gets you nothing unless you buy coins. We thought it would be a City sponsored aquarium with a variety of tanks however there were very few aquatic animals. It felt like Chucky Cheese meets pimped put animals. They weave you around a room dedicated solely to arcade games with a band playing and small variety of animals. We would highly discourage going here.
