That's why finding a place like this has been a life saver. They answer all my questions with patience and zero judgment, which makes a huge difference. I recently purchased a pair of MochaVinci clownfish and they are doing great. The store itself is super clean, well-organized, and packed with a solid selection of fish and an impressive variety of corals. And seriously, when you go, see Dillon. He is incredibly knowledgeable, genuinely helpful, and just an all around great guy to talk to. Don't get caught up in the frenzy of other fish stores. Spend your dollars at Coral Smugglers, you won't be disappointed.

They definitely made it right--unbeknownst to them…read more I had bought dry goods and ended up changing my mind about them. They informed me of their exchange/store credit policy: 5 days. This unfortunately isn't a very generous window. To my dismay I was on day 6 so they said they couldn't. I explained that I live about 30min away and am off work around 630/7 so it's VERY difficult to make it down within the 5d period. After explaining this they said they could make an exception. The one downside is their driftwood pricing. They do have sims decent selection; however there's no set pricing guidelines. Other LFS stores use color-coded zip ties to denote price; here they don't. Online it says they sell based on weight; however the times I've bought pieces they've never weighed it: it seems like they just come up with a number and that's what you pay up. I guess another downside is they have a smaller selection (of goods in general) than other local LFS stores and they're a bit pricier.

We plan to buy more Ranchu !…read more We bought a calico Ranchu, and to our surprise, he arrived healthy and full of energy after spending nearly 48 hours in UPS transit during the 95-100°F Texas heat. We were a little worried about the long journey and extreme temperatures, but he adapted immediately and has been active, beautiful, and incredibly cute from the moment he arrived. To be honest, we were also hesitant at first because of some of the negative Google and Yelp reviews. As first-time Ranchu owners, we spent a lot of time researching breeders, but there aren't many reputable Ranchu breeders in the U.S. for this exotic goldfish. In the end, we decided to take a chance and see how this little guy would turn out despite the mixed reviews. We couldn't be happier with our decision. The fish exceeded our expectations in every way. This experience really proved the quality of this breeder. Their Ranchu are healthy, well-bred, and able to handle even a challenging shipment in the Texas summer. We are extremely satisfied and definitely plan to buy more Ranchu from them in the future. Thank you for bringing such a wonderful little fish into our home!

The 2 stars are solely because they had what I was looking for, otherwise it would be 1 star…read more I went looking for a fish with certain traits, which they had a several variations of. When I found one that I liked I asked the guy helping me out the price; he gave me a number. When I looked it up online using their code it was off: he gave me a number $15 more than their website. Had I not checked I would've overpaid. Not to mention (I found this out after I'd left) they had a 10% discount until 7/7-my purchase was made before that date; however they made no mention of this. The conditions in which the fish are kept is less than ideal. There's numerous dead fish; some of the betta's are in small jugs with another dead betta. They weren't the only fish with dead companions but it was harder to photograph the ones in bigger tanks without being seen. Definitely wouldn't recommend going there if you're looking for something that was raised in good conditions.
