The special event will run from Thursday, October 3 until Sunday October 6.
"We would love Dubbo locals to come down and join the in on festivities this year for Aqua Fun Day," Ms Armstrong said.
"Our aquatic experts will be on hand to assist with questions, provide tips and help families stock up on the best products for their aquatic friends."
Dubbo residents will be able to learn from local aquatic experts and experience the wonders of owning an aquatic pet all while enjoying a day of competitions and prizes.
Social competitions include gift card prizes of $1,000, $750, and $500, as well as receiving discounts.
"Anybody that owns aquatic pets will tell you that they are one of the best first pets to own. Dubbo locals who are living in apartments or smaller spaces, or just aren't able to live with cats or dogs due to allergies or other reasons, would especially appreciate the simplicity and joy of owning aquatic pets, especially fish," Ms Armstrong said.
"Fish are incredible creatures and come in many different colours, shapes and sizes. They are an ideal easy to maintain pet for people who love animals but might not have a lot of time to spend with them.
"If you have kids and ever wanted to teach them the responsibility and discipline of owning a pet, fish are especially great pets to start this journey."
