    This guy is bigger than my cat

    Little store, big fish! Discus, cichlids, koi, gold fish...small selection of community fish

    Our super aggressive and hungry Flowerhorn! First day in his new home.

    Great little shop for Flowerhorns. Vu was really nice and informative and even though there was a language barrier we were able to get all our questions answered. They have a great selection of beautiful Flowerhorns. Went in 1 week to pick one out and they were gracious enough to hold onto our fish for a week as we had to cycle the water in our new aquarium. By the time we returned to pick up our fish 5 days later they had like 5 new Flowerhorns. Don't forget to bring cash as they don't do credit cards.

    Horrible customer service, they do not do returns or exchange. They are very rude. I am very disappointed and will not come back.

    They have Kingkong parrots and lots of cichlid fish species. I spent $130+ here. A review from a North-Cal visiting customer.

    They have a large variety of plants! I got anacharis,…read morewisteria, banana plants, water lettuce, java fern on driftwood, Anubias, Alternanthera rosanervig The Javafern wasn't perfect but at other fish shops none were perfect either. Some leaves had holes and crinkled/dying leaves. But it was a really big javafern and I like that it's already attached to the drift wood. It's doing well in my tank and slowly getting healthier :) the javaferns at Nolan's were tiny and even in worst condition lol so I think I still got a good plant. Staff is super knowledgeable on plants and fish. I like how much staff they have, you never have to wait for help there's always someone that is around. Btw the owner is super nice and sweet! She said new inventory every fridays - I came on Friday and they actually had SO many more plants. So it's best to come Friday I guess so there's a bigger selection to chose from :) Btw: My water lettuce all rotted and melted in my tank. Idk what happened !!! The other plants did well I have a light and test my water every day. But I won't blame the store bc they looked good in store.

    This review breaks my heart, I've been coming to Tong's ever since I was little. Staff always…read morefriendly and knowledgeable, the fishes here are beautiful, rare and reasonable price. I was here on friday 12/12/25, I was looking at a pleco fish and the mango pleco caught my eye, but wanted to sleep on it, decided to come by Sunday 12/14/25 and I saw the place boarded up/caution tape. So sad to see that there was a fire today, from the look of it, it looks pretty burn/charred up inside. RIP to the many beautiful fishes who burn in the fire, I do hope and pray some of the fishes survived, and I hope Tong's rebound/ rebuild/ reOPEN in the future.

    This is My second attempt at starting an aquarium. My Husband had a 50-gallon fresh water tank back…read morein the day which I loved to watch the fish - very hypnotic & fascinating, swimming to & fro - but when He leveled up I had to let His fishy friends go too (the maintenance requirements were too overwhelming for Me then). My first recent try was to go the traditional route - heater, filter, bottles of water conditioner & beneficial bacteria, etc. etc. - when I unexpectedly happened upon an eye-opening You-Tube vid about the Walstad method (less homework & a more natural environment, the way God intended). So I returned all that other gear & am starting from scratch. Fernando eased My initial anxiety arriving as a total tank newbie, and gave Me a tour of the various low-maintenance plants I could start My nitrogen cycling with. Nolan - the Captain of this aquarium supplies ship - answered every one of My questions with patience & grace, did not talk down to Me or make Me feel stupid, and I left feeling happily hopeful that I might actually be successful in creating a fish-friendly safe & healthy environment. I am already envisioning My future fishy tenants, plus a snail & a sucker fish or two. Wish Me luck!! :-)

    First off I just read Samantha M's review and I'm flabbergasted - this is the CLEANEST pet store in…read moreOC and most definitely there is ZERO smell. I've been to tongs, 8888, etc, trust me Nolan's is super clean. I came here for plants, they have a very large selection!!! My first time here was a few days ago - I got Hornwort, bolbitus, and dwarf water lettuce. They were all thriving. Hornwort fluffy and full! Also Thursday's is 25% off plants !! I came again today and brought a friend and she was also so happy we stayed there for like an hour just looking at everything. They have multiple rooms and a lot of tanks. The store seems small but it's not ; there's a lot of variety of fish, plants, and shrimp. Today there were red root floaters, one of the employees actually grew them - they were so healthy and super red I had to buy 3 cups !! I got more dwarf water lettuce bc my axolotl loved hanging in the roots. Staff today was super nice and helpful. There were 2 guys. It was extremely busy when I came like 10 people and they were helping everyone collaboratively. I hate when an employee only focuses on 1 customer who takes forever thinking and observing and there's a ton of ppl waiting. It wasn't like that here, the guy would answer a question and move on to another client. Also when the guy was fishing out some shrimp he was still talking to other customers and answering questions. I loved the vibe here. I will def be returning!!!!!

    This is a big shout out to Eddie!! THANK YOU EDDIE!!! My…read morehusband were in the market for a second fancy goldfish when we came across the amazing website for King Koi & Goldfish. BTW, this is a very impressive website. But was what even more impressive was our visit to the store. We were immediately greeted with a warm welcome from Eddie. He was informative and passionate about the fish that were in his care. Not only did he help us select a healthy beautiful fish, he went so far as to give us some additional instructions on a handwritten note on how to acclimate our new pet to his new home and how to look for sings of stress. Our drive was about an hour away, so Eddie made sure he packed the fish well and even placed an ice pack in a box to ensure the fish did not over heat as we were in the midst of a heat wave that week. We even discussed feeding, filtration, plants, water quality & treatments. His customer service was full circle. Two weeks after bringing home "Sherman" We were ready to set up a larger 55 gallon tank for both our original fish and our new fish. We were feeling a little out of our comfort zone, so we reached out to Eddie again. Not only did he remember us, he took the time to review the key steps of setting up the larger tank as well as the steps needed to transfer both fish into their new forever home. Once again, Eddie offed key information on how to get the tank ready before the transfer. Once again, he extended the invitation to call him if we need more help when we are ready to add both fish to the new tank. His information was clear and concise which was very much appreciated. I highly recommend King Koi & Goldfish to anyone looking for fancy gold fish. Once again Thank You Eddie, we will be back soon when we are ready to add a couple more fish to the new tank. K.Frank
