To top it off, they are beyond reasonable. I needed 10 gold fish for my son's birthday party (Sesame Street Theme). I needed the 10 fish bagged separately lol. The owner has a bit of dry humor and is somewhat of a jokester. In saying that, when I told the guy I needed them bagged separately he was totally against it. However, he bagged them separately and said he would charge me extra for the bag which totaled out to be an extra $.20 (yes, twenty cents lol). I also purchased food and my bill came out to be under $4. I can tell you now that Petsmart and Petco are much more expensive than this local store.

There are lots of ad on activities as well, which weren't too bad as far as pricing goes. Parking is also about half validated when you go to scan your museum ticket. There are also plenty of food options available inside, including coffee and donuts Definitely recommend visiting if in town, and especially if you're traveling with kids.

I took my seven year old but think that the normal exhibits are probably better for children who are a bit older, maybe ten and up. The Pokemon special exhibit was great for kids. It does get crowded so trying to be near the front of the line or at the back with a chill, leisurely pace is a good idea. The entries are timed and groups sort of walk through like a snake. Merch is available with a special voucher only and the worthwhile items are the Excavator Pikachu plush and t-shirts unique to the special exhibit. Most of the offerings are available online at similar prices. But be ready for crowds, expensive food, unruly school/camp groups, and restrooms that have no paper towels. We went on a Thursday in July and walking was a struggle in the main hall. My mom got stepped on.

My wife and three kids really enjoyed the choices, and the beer I had was very refreshing! Field store is very lacking. Most of it feels like cheap buys, or something you would never actually want. From books that are outdated or books that you buy and forget about or gift them to someone you hate. Clothing is really all they have that is decent. Pokemon store is 3 stars at best. They have no product, maybe 8 items total spread out theough the entire store and it is clear they were supposed to have more and did not expect to sell so quickly.

We had a little time while waiting for the show to start so we strolled thru Mission Moon, planet explorers, & other worlds. - Cute photo op with a "flag on the moon" - a couple interactive exhibits - Restrooms are on the mid-level floor and are super busy if you catch it after a show or closing time - mid-level also has vending machines for ice cream, chips, candy, and water but NO prices listed! You have to select it and then pay! Not a fan of that. 16oz of Dasani water was $4.75! The show was entertaining and relaxing. I forgot what it was called? Something about constellations? The guide was knowledge and did a great job but also... I was so comfy and it was so dark I fell asleep a little lol!

While several stores had nice displays, I often felt like I was being sold whatever they had in stock rather than getting advice tailored to my needs. Tank It Easy was a completely different experience. The staff took the time to understand my budget, space, experience level and what I wanted to achieve with my aquarium. They walked me through different options, answered all of my questions and never made me feel pressured into making a purchase. Their knowledge of both freshwater and saltwater aquariums was impressive, and it was clear they genuinely care about helping customers succeed. Thanks to their guidance, I ended up with a setup that was exactly what I was looking for. If you're considering an aquarium and want honest advice from people who truly know the hobby, I highly recommend Tank It Easy.

The staff is knowledgable, accommodating, and very friendly and the fish selection is the BEST in the Chicago city limits. Other stores focus more on custom tanks, maintenance, plants, etc. but this store really focuses on having fish - and lots of them! Not knocking the other stores, but this store is about as fun to walk through as it is to actually go home with your new fishy friends! Who else has an almost constant stock of Discus, Stingray, RARE Blue Parrot Cichlids, and a Flowerhorn or two? Come on! I did go in once to get some Rummynose Tetras and they didn't last past the week... but the staff - especially the owner - were really great helping me out the next time I came through to make sure my issues were resolved. The staff has always cautioned me against a purchase if it's not the right fit and helped me find something that goes well with whatever tank I am currently stocking. Honestly, this is one of my favorite places to go AND it's super close to Chinatown so I can zip over for some good eats before or after my visit. When the pandemic has subsided, I plan to bring friends and family here to see how cool my favorite LFS is before grabbing some dim sum.
