Our first visit. The staff was incredibly kind and patient with us. We talked primarily with Dave and then bonded with Jay through a shared live for turtles. They are knowledgeable and informative and will definitely be seeing a lot more of us.

Always adored the ocean, this is my first time jumping into this hobby when I discovered this store and have been successful with Dave and his team. I come here regularly and follow the advice and my reef has been doing well - positive growth (soft/LPS/SPS) and I don’t struggle with maintaining the tank. I have made the majority of my purchases here and will continue to do so (equipment/livestock/food). When I come by, there are usually 2 young guys and they have always been very helpful.

It’s in the back! Just visited here and it was great. They do 3+ week quarantine on fish and coral plus they source sustainably from breeders. Their coral selection was great with a ton of varieties and different grades of quality and size. Offered excellent advice on how to properly cycle my tank as well as correct some of the misconceptions I had. Will be buying most of my fish from here.

My wife and I were thinking of going from a cheap, small Petsmart aquarium to a larger one that would look nice in our new home. Dave took the time to walk us through all the considerations, from whether we’d need to further support our floors to how we could best keep out our cats. All in all, he took over an hour discussing all our questions, running estimates for different setups, and giving us a ton of practical advice about how to get our new tank started. Truly excellent and expert customer service. Some of the very best we’ve had with any purchase ever. We will definitely be back.

We don't have a lot right now as our quarantine is full of guppies but once they clear we will bring in some smaller community fish.

Hi There, I have a salt water tank and I intend on visiting your store this week as I have just found you. Do you happen to know of anyone that would come every two weeks and clean the tank? The person I was using has moved. Thank You June Sims

Hello June, we provide service for customers and can give you an estimate based in the size of your tank and location. Just mention it to the staff when you come in and we can go over a quote with you or route it to our service manager.

Thanks Sara, but we don't have a garage door. 😁. Our protocols are actually masks required, hand sanitizer, appointments, and limited entry with cleaning and disinfection taking place routinely. We follow mostly standards set up for hospitals and consider our shop to be one of the safest experiences you can have outside of simply staying in your own home!

Nithin, We have just about everything for saltwater, our freshwater selection is quite limited and always changing, but we do often have a few of the animals you mentioned. As of today we are still not open for walk-in customers but coming soon so check the schedule before you visit.

They to have freshwater livestock, but not sure about shrimp and snails. You could call them, and get an answer much faster

What kind of fish do you sell at the store?! I’m planning to come tomorrow so I want to be prepared.

All / Not Jaden, It is true that we have 5 different Freshwater display tanks, 2 quarantine systems to be sure the animals are healthy and some holding tanks for animals that are available for sale. We also have a great selection of freshwater plants, equipment, additives and people that can help you plan a freshwater aquarium or give advice on improving the one you have. However, from a total water volume perspective, we are about 95% Saltwater.
