It's more than 80 years old and is the only one of its kind in the region
Hidden in the basement of Bolton Museum is an attraction you won’t find anywhere else in Greater Manchester - and it’s completely free to visit. Beneath the museum is the region’s only public aquarium.
Costa Rica, Borneo, Malaysia and Madagascar are just some of the countries the aquarium’s fish originate from. It might be located in the heart of Bolton town centre, but the aquarium ensures these exotic freshwater fish feel at home by keeping their tanks as close to their natural habitat as possible.The Peruvian fish are kept in tanks with a similar environment to a small stream in Peru, with shallow waters, plants and fallen leaves.
The smallest fish is the Danionella cf. translucida or Pygmy glass danio, originating from Burma. It’s the world’s third smallest species of fish at just 12mm long.
