Shark feeding in Bangalore: what you can watch at 6:30 PM
What the 6:30 PM feeding is
A trained diver goes into the main display and feeds the fish while visitors watch from outside the glass. Fish gather around the diver, so it is a good moment to see the tanks at their busiest. Species you may spot around the feeding include moray eels, alligator gar, tarpon and sun catfish.
We keep this page honest: if you have seen posts about sharks being fed in Bangalore, check what the venue actually lists before you travel. Our fish page shows what lives at Aquarium Paradise.
