Pingüinario

Any thoughts on a translation for this term?
'pingüinario '
Perhaps 'penguinarium'?

Thank you, Rusty.
Can I assume then that 'delfinario' is best translated as:
dolphin tank
dolphin habitat
dolphin exhibit
dolphin area

Any thoughts on 'dolphinarium'? I've seen it written but never heard it used, though.

We don't use the -arium ending on the species that can be found in an aquarium.
