Marine aquarium in Bangalore: sea fish under one roof at Palace Grounds
What marine life you will see
We keep a wide range of freshwater and marine fish across indoor galleries, and the walk ends with India's longest underwater tunnel. Fish to look out for:
- Moray eel: long, snake-like fish that sit in rock gaps with only the head showing.
- Tarpon: large silver fish with big scales that catch the light as they turn.
- Alligator gar: a freshwater giant with a long, toothy snout.
- Sun catfish: a patterned catfish that kids tend to spot first.
The full list is on our fish page. Signs and educational displays along the route explain what you are looking at, which helps if you are visiting with school-age children.
Beyond the tanks
- A jellyfish room with reflective walls, one of the most photographed spots inside.
- Indoor man-made waterfalls.
- An ocean-view seating lounge where you can sit and watch the fish.
- Interactive zones for kids.
- Fish-feeding by an expert diver every day at 6:30 PM.
