    The size of this tank would make a goldfish swoon in its bowl: The S.E.A. Aquarium is the world’s biggest aquarium. Over 800 species live there in 42.8 million liters of water.

    I really think the $33 was worth it. Come early or you'll suffer from the queue. My fav tanks: the Jelly Fish and the Open Sea (the largest one). Please add a shark tank! A bigger and fancier one!

    If you go to USS early and don't want to queue go to sea aquarium first. It's cold, it's awesome and you get $5 food voucher per person. Plus you can zone out on bean bags at the viewing theatre

    The ticketing queue can get really longgg, especially on weekends. Buy your tickets online to skip the queue at the counter. Save more when you book via Klook. Best time to visit is on weekdays.

    Walk it from back to front rather than front to back to avoid the crazy crowds. If you have kids, partition more time for them to hang out and sit cosy at the Open Ocean display. It's fantastic!

    It is good to visit although too crowded during the Chinese New Year. But frankly speaking it is not so interesting if you already visited ChangLong Aquarium in Zhuhai, China which seems even larger.

    Very pedagogic and kid's friendly, I like the place. Try avoiding weekends and public holidays though. Buying your tickets online is also a good idea

    Beautiful! And so many types of fish. There is a room with a huge glass filled with fish for you to sit, relax and look at. Definitely worth it.

    Bring camera and a tripod. Alot of low light scenes. Buy your ticket from "qoo10.com.sg" or from "Travel Delight". 40% offpublished rate. Definitely worth the dough...

    Get here early. The tanks are huge and the fish seem happy. But too many people entering at one time. It gets crowded very easily. Most queues and jams are mostly people too busy taking photos

    If you like marine life, this is definitely the place to be. You could just sit there and enjoy for as long as they're open.

    Visit in the afternoon, followed by dinner in the Ocean Restaurant (inside the aquarium). Reserve a table in advance as it's always full.

    I can spend the entire day here (if you like sea creatures). Did enjoy the feeding session and the extra shows during Halloween.

    Possible to see most of the living creatures in sea. You must spend at least two hours to check all. Greatest aquarium of the world.

    The aquarium is great, but the experience was a bit spoiled by the lack of good manners. People hit you all the time and they don't wait for their turn. Wild life in and out of the tanks.

    Buy the ticket online and shell out the extra $10 for priority ($15 at the door!). There was a 90min wait for the normal tickets. With priority you just walk in!

    One of the best in Asia. Well designed and very creative. Go after 4pm to avoid the super long Q/lines.

    The number and quality of displays is less than other big aquariums (though the one deep sea tank is impressive and has manta rays). And it's crowded as hell. Can't recommend.

    If you come on a holiday/wkend, wear comfortable shoes and bring a fan. You're in for a looong queuing to get tickets and to enter the exhibition

    Save time queueing by buying your tickets online; good idea to pay the extra $10 for priority. You can show the PDF on your phone to the staff; they will manually enter the number into the gate.

    Best is to avoid weekends and public holidays, if not try to go 1 hour before the opening hours to start queuing. Read more

    Queues for the tickets in front are crazy long, but if you don't mind a little walking, head to the back and get your tickets from Adventure Cove where there's practically no line at all.

    Spend more time at the oceanarium viewing panel and watch the manta rays fly by! Don't miss the Ocean Dome for close-up encounters w/ the rays & other fishes.

    Have visited better aquariums in terms of layout and information for education, but good try especially with limited space. Dolphin tank seems too shallow though.

    It's pretty packed with visitors and its expected being school holidays, children are practically everywhere. Suggest to come during afternoon when the crowds are no longer coming in. Good stuff
