Aquarium - worth the $39 entry?
Casino - much to do there except for gambling?
Federation Square - what is it?; just a big open square where they have big screens for events?
ANy particular botanical gardens etc you'd recommend?
What else is fun/interesting to do over 2 and a half days?
Also, any suggestions for clean/pleasant, centrallly-located but not ridiculously priced accomodation?
THanks very much for any ideas.

Victoria St in Richmond/Abbotsford is also good for Viet food.
There are a couple of good Greek restaurants floating around too, there used to one in Johnston St Fitzroy that I liked.
The Belgian Beer Cafe is good on a nice day.
Sawasdee Thai restaurant and Shark Fin Inn are two of me faves in Chinatown.
I have stayed at the causeway in Little Collins st which is not bad fro a reasonably cheap hotel, very central.
If you like steaks you cant go past Vlados in Richmond
