Penang Aquarium & Chew Thean Yeang (CTY) Aquarium

15 April 2012
After a visit to zoo, we decided to visit to the aquarium. Replacement for the Underwater World. Curious if we are able to find shark here. Unfortunately, no.. picture on wall of shark only.
When it's near, you tend to miss it. So does this place. We never really bother to go, though seeing the signboard every time entering to Bayan Lepas. We decided to bring Koko and Didi to have a look. No big expectation of it, just hope can satisfy both of them.
The aquarium is stated in Batu Maung. Small place and reasonable entrance fees.

Koko found the butterfly fish in this aquarium. 
This yellow fish - called butterfly fish in one of the book that we bought.

Crocodile fish - my naming :)

There is this big aquarium at the auditorium area. A little bit disappointed with the maintenance work. The window is quite dirty and it's very obvious. There were some huge grouper fishes and a big turtle in here.
Koko and Didi were running around and climbing up and down. Getting them to get a good photo is a real tough job.
The most cooperative photo from Koko. 
After 1hrs++ in this aquarium, we went to have lunch before proceeding to CTY Aquarium at Burma Road because Koko said he hasn't feed the fish yet. This is a pet shop. We visited it accidentally previously when Hubby was at the Canon Shop which located along the same row with this pet shop. I were really surprise, there were so much to see here. So, today we decided to come here again. Guess what, this shop is even better than the Penang Aquarium.

It has a big aquarium too.

This is what Koko is waiting for the whole day. 

This pet shop is a must to visit for kids. Very highly recommended. There are blogs commenting about the workers rudeness, but for me - doesn't matter, we just wanna looks around. It's just like a small friendly zoo for the kids.
