We purchased about 150.00 of fresh water fish about 3 months ago, when I cleaned up my tanks. Their fish are very hardy and well quarantined when they obtain them from their suppliers. We did not lose one single fish in the acclimating and currently have 100% at present. The algae eaters we purchased have grown substantially abd are active and entertaining! We are planning to return for a purchase of Albino Corey-cats soon. They also have an excellent variety of plants and supplies. The staff are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Their store was busy on a Saturday, and we still had a pleasant experience. Their prices are reasonable as well in comparison to local Pet Stores. I checked out two other Pet stores in our area, and one had all their stock on quarantine due to an ich outbreak that came with a shipment, and the other had quite a few dead fish laying or floating in their tanks. I did not purchase from either and began looking for other options. Google helped me find Kona Reef and are thankful we found them! I recommend them highly! read more

What a waste of time and gas. I called ahead about Oscars and they said they had tiger albino oscars and regular tiger oscars. They did not have tiger albino oscars. They also said 2-3 inch. They were barley an inch. So not only was I lied to twice but making the 30 minute drive plus wait for 20 minutes to get helped was the cherry on top. I don't not recommend places that just get you in the door. Learn you product! "Sizes". read more

The store is clean and organized and the associates are sooooooo knowledgeable and helpful ! Stephanie was amazing and Eli was supportive !

Ignore the bad reviews, they are FALSE information. I went here and it was a FREE aquarium. It was AMAZEBALLS and smelled SO GOOD. I wanted to lick the water :))))))) yeah. It super fun to watch the snails climb up the sides of the tank and fall to the bottom. They were so cool! Ya. read more

We have always had great experiences at Kona Reef. We've been to both of their locations and have never had any problems with any fish we've bought. They have freshwater and saltwater fish. All tanks and fish have always looked healthy and super well maintained. Customer service is always friendly and knowledgeable as well! Great local fish store. read more

This place was amazing. When the local chain pets store didn't have the fish I was looking for in stock, they pointed me to this local gem. Walking in feels like you're in an aquarium; truly beautiful. Abby helped my daughter and I find the perfect fish. She was incredibly kind and knowledgeable. I will not be going back to the chain store; I will be going back to Kona for all future fish needs. read more

I went looking for freshwater fish and they had an amazing selection as well for saltwater. I was greeted upon coming in and Abby was very helpful and knowledgeable and even making sure I had the right setup before handing me the fish. The tanks and store were kept extremely clean and am happy I found this store! read more

Stephanie took so much time to walk me through what was going to work best in my new nano reef tank and answered tons of my questions. I left feeling much better about the situation (and with some new fish). Definitely will be back for any of my reef needs. read more

I went into the store looking for Cherry Shrimp for my son. Although they didnt have any at that time as they had received a shipment that day and sold out prior to us getting there.. The staff there was super helpful in any of my questions. The store was very clean and well set up. I'll definitely shop here in the future! read more

Abby and Stephanie deserve a raise. So helpful, so friendly and funny. The fish they recommended for our Betta community tank are perfect. Such healthy and bright fish. Will be coming back to support this location as long as they're there. read more

Thank goodness the owner keeps the place stocked with nice fish if it weren't for that I wouldn't spend one dime here based off the customer service, slow and no initiative to take care of customer , they pretend to not see you and go about whatever they are doing which don't seem like much . read more

Staff was courteous, professional, and knowledgeable. I have definitely seen improvement at this store over the past year. Keep up the great work. read more

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. I purchased my tank, tank decor, quite a few plants, and all of my freshwater fish/shrimp from here. Everything has been healthy so far. It is an awesome store to walk around. I also appreciate how they keep their betta fish in community tanks instead of a sad cup like a big box store. This is my go-to fish store for the far West Valley. read more

Nice local fish shop. Healthy pretty fish to choose from. Staff is helpful. I definitely recommend read more

Was randomly driving by and saw this place, stopped and it was really cool seeing everything. Staff are VERY customer service friendly and very knowledgeable! Very helpful as well! Very great prices!!! Definitely going back and recommending ANYONE to come in! read more

DO NOT buy your fish here, there is copious amount of dead fish in the tanks, and many more that are clearly sick and being eaten alive by parasites. No individual filtration amongst the tanks, recipe for disaster. read more

I bought 2 guppies and a betta. Added the 2 guppies to my existing tank with my original 3 guppies. In a 10 gallon tank. Betta went in his own 3.5 gallon tank. Next day 1 new guppy was dead. 1 week later the next new guppy was dead. Another week later 1 of my original guppies died, and the betta died. Another week and another of my original guppies died. I checked my water in both tanks and it was fine. Only conclusion is their fish have diseases and die. They also kill off your healthy and happy fish. They have no warranty period at all so there is no recourse. Would not recommend at all. read more

We just wanted to acknowledge how great Stephanie was tonight! She was so knowledgeable and helpful to us in picking out fish for our tank. we can say enough good things about our experience and look forward to returning soon! Thank you! read more

Friendly, knowledgeable prompt. Just moved from California to Suprise and I needed a quick set up to prepare my fish for the transition. Within 3 days I had a Redsea 250 G2+ up and running. Great guys, great service. Highly recommend read more
