Aquarium Market Size to Reach USD 6.21 Billion by 2032, Fueled by Rising Demand for Ornamental Fish
The global aquarium market was valued at USD 3.79 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow to USD 6.21 billion by 2032, recording a CAGR of 6.36% during the forecast period.
An aquarium is a container—ranging in size—with at least one transparent side, used to house aquatic animals such as fish, invertebrates, and reptiles. The growing presence of aquariums in pet stores across both developed and developing nations is driving global market expansion.
The COVID-19 pandemic brought mixed consequences to the aquarium market. While the surge in ornamental fish adoption during lockdowns increased demand for aquariums, supply chain disruptions impacted sales, limiting imports and exports of essential products.

Growing awareness and international trade of ornamental fish continue to boost demand.
Key Restraint:
Regulatory restrictions on the breeding, trade, and tank manufacturing of ornamental fish in certain countries have limited market potential, slightly curbing growth.

Meanwhile, the Asia Pacific region is expected to post the highest CAGR through 2032.
