Not the cleanest aquarium store I've been to but at least I didn't see many dead animals. The shop was dimly lit in some areas so I'm assuming that they're in the middle of re-organizing or something. Livestock price wise, i think it's reasonable. Although some tissue cultured were on the pricier side. The selection of plants and livestock were OK, I would probably only visit if you need equipment though. They have some ADA, UNS, Chihiros, CO2 tanks, etc. Here are some of the livestock prices to give you a sense of what they charge. This is not a comprehensive list but rather some livestock I was personally interested with: Prices as of June 2026: FW Fish Assorted Male Bettas - $10 Ember Tetra - $5 False Bandit Cory - $12 Kuhli Loach - $6 Longfin Bronze Cory - $10 Pea Puffers - $8 Pygmy Corydora - $6 Sterbai Cory - $15 Super Red Bristlenose - $30 Whiptail Catfish - $20 SHRIMP Amano Shrimp - $7 Bamboo Shrimp - $10 Black Tiger Shrimp - $15 Cherry Shrimp - $8 Opae Ula Shrimp - $5 Super Tiger Shrimp - $15 SNAILS Jade Mystery Snail - $5 Japanese Trapdoor Snail - $9

I felt he went above and beyond especially considering we were trying to set up a very small aquarium that my toddler went nuts over and he did not need to spend all that time with me on the phone (and didn't even charge us!) I would highly recommend using his services for any of your aquarium needs, I was pleasantly surprised by his knowledge and kindness. We will definitely be using his services in the future for any more aquarium needs. Thank you again!

I was a bit worried about my visit due to some of the negative reviews…read more I only interacted with two staff members but both seemed enthusiastic to help me while also giving me space to shop. The conditions of these tanks are PRISTINE. I'm not sure if it's due to their lightning or something else but the water just looks very clear and clean. I didn't see a single dead fish while browsing. Based on this fact, I'd like to believe that their livestock is quite healthy. They also make their policies VERY clear. It's on their website and there are also signs around the shop. Maybe these policies aren't that shocking to me since I buy lots of livestock online that don't have a guarantee after you add it to your aquarium. They do not have a phone number to check stock but they do post updates on their website and email newsletter. They claim it's due to high foot traffic but it wasn't very busy when I was there (Friday afternoon) with that being said, all of the staff members were doing something while I was at the store. I think they just don't have enough people sometimes. Price wise, yes some of the fish are outrageously priced ($14 for a CPD is crazy) but many of them seem reasonable. I assume it's however they're getting their stock or the fact that they offer 20% discounts if you get a 40G+ kit. They also sell cycled media for $20/lb if you're impatient to cycle a tank! I would highly recommend as a place to visit if you're just setting up a new tank or need a more uncommon/rare fish. They'll have basically anything you need but you can definitely get more common fish like pygmy corys, pea puffers, CPDs, etc elsewhere if you're looking to save money. Below are some prices based on my June 2026 visit to give you a sense of their pricing: Keep in mind that not all of these were in stock so prices might change. PLANTS Bucephalandra 'Blue Metallic' - $20 Bucephalandra 'Brownie Purple' (loose) - $15 Bucephalandra 'Mahap Blue Round' (loose) - $20 Limnophila Hippuroides Aromatica (bunch) - $6 Rotala 'Ceylon' (bunch) - $8 Rotala 'Orange Juice' (bunch) - $8 FISH Betta - $25 to $45 Blue Rasbora - $8 Chili Rasbora - $5.60 Celestial Pearl Danio - $14 Ember Tetra - $4.65 Emerald Dward Rasbora - $8 Ghost Shrimp - $1 Gold Stripe Goby - $45 Gold Tetra - $6.50 Hillstream Loach (Red Fin) - $30 Otocinclus - $7.50 Panda Loach - $30 Pea Puffer - $14 Pencilfish - $5 Phoenix Rasbora - $5 Pygmy Corydoras - $7.85 Pygmy Spotted Maculatus Rainbow fish - $11 Rasbora - $3.25 Rhinotocinclus Isabelae Oto - $20 Scarlet Badis - $7.75 Spotted Danio - $7 Strawberry Rasbora - $4.25 Zebra Otocinclus - $29 SHRIMP Amano Shrimp - $5.50 SNAILS Assassin Snail - $5 Batman Nerite - $5-6 Pumpkin Striped Nerite - $6

The guy (I dont know if he is the owner) has always been nice even though im only coming in to look for new discus fish, he has never treated me badly for not buying. When he does have discus, its always priced very fair and in good condition, if the fish are sick he will let me know ahead of time and to address the past review about fish being sick is that fish get sick all the time due to the stress environment even if they're not sick at the time of purchase, once you add it to your aquarium can get sick from the environment you put them into so its not always the place you bought it and it's just part of the process. This place has always been upfront and honest about everything and informational when fish starting out with purchasing a type of species of any fish. I've also bought fish here that died under my care but I take 100% responsibility. I will continue to come here and purchase.
