The 17 aquariums of the exhibition are located on the ground floor and inner courtyard of the two-storey building at the northern end of the  Tagore Promenade. Information about the species in the aquariums are presented in three languages.

From the 47 species that lived in the Balaton, today only 24 remains - we can see all of them in the Bodorka Balaton Aquarium.
