Additional charges for photography

I recently visited this aquarium and the aquarium is not maintained properly because of which many species of fishes are not available to see which were available earlier after renovation and the building has 2 floors but only ground floor is available to visit and the fees charged for photography is way high than the standard of aquarium. Its not worth to watch if you are coming from out of Mumbai as a tourist. This is not the right place to spend your hard earned money and time.
