The Blackpool Tower Aquarium originally opened as Dr Cocker's Menagerie in the late 1870's on its present site. The Blackpool Tower Aquarium aquarium actually pre-dates the rest of the Tower! Today there are over 70 species of fish and crustaceans from the giant Pacu fish of the Amazon to Seahorses, Lobster and Eels. There are fish from all types of water from Marine, Tropical, to Sea creatures in 17 tanks.
The aquarium closed in 2010 and was remodelled to make way for a new "Dungeons" attraction.This was done by the Merlin Group, which took over the operation of the Tower at the end of the 2010 season
