The name undersells it and oversells it at the same time. This is part aquarium, part mini-zoo, with fish, amphibians, reptiles and mammals under one roof, and the fish section is where it earns its keep. Rare and genuinely strange species, a two-headed turtle, so-called dancing fish. If you've done the beach, the walking street and the temples and you're hunting for something different to fill an afternoon, it does the job.
Several people come away uneasy about the animals. The monkeys in particular get flagged for cramped cages and visible stress, and the enclosures generally read as small and tired. If animal welfare shapes where you spend your money, this one probably isn't for you, and I'd rather say that up front than bury it. Others find the ticket a bit steep for what it is, though feeding the animals costs little extra and children tend to love it.

Reviews from Google
Looks like nothing but if you go inside it is another world of animals. Nice place and you could enjoy feeding animals with make sense prices. Very enjoy and there is some aircond area so thay you could rest a bit from a hot weather. Totally worth.
For the people who already bore Pattaya, this place monster aquarium can be the choice for you. However, the ticket fee is quite overpriced a little bit but the experience and the weird animal also can impressive. There are many weird animal. For example, the 2 head turtle or the dancing fish. So, if you have time and don’t know where to go when travel at Pattaya, this aquarium is not bad.
Mixed experience. The aquarium has a huge variety of animals, and the fish section is amazing with many weird and rare species I’ve never seen before. However, some animals, especially the monkeys, were kept in very small cages and seemed stressed due to lack of space. It would be better to have fewer animals and give them more room.
