BEST REEF STORE EVER! I checked this place out today for the first time since I was passing through…read morethe area. The photos looked great online but didn't want to get too excited because LFS can sometimes disappoint. First off, parking is a breeze, nice big parking lot. When I walked in, I was taken aback. This store is unlike most. So many LFS have black walls and black ceilings, usually very dark and humid. This place when the opposite direction, nice bright lights, white furniture, and very well lit displays! The display tanks are absolutely stunning and the actual fish racks were the cleanest and best looking racks I've EVER seen. Nice clean sand beds, each tank has a nice amount of live rock, and none of the tanks are overcrowded. A young woman who worked there greeted my wife and I and she was so friendly! She was happy to show us around the store and point out specific fish that would work well for my system. She explained they get tons of captive bred fish from ORA and Biota, and all the fish (including their limited amount of wild caught) are QTed, and honestly it showed. Al the fish were fat, happy, and colored up! And a massive selection! Way more than many of the big reef stores down in the Bay Area. Again, I can't emphasize more how beautiful and healthy these fish racks are. And the coral frag tanks are beautiful too. Aside from livestock, the store has TONS of dry goods. Every kind of food, chemical, filtration, or lighting was available. They even had substrate for sale by the pound. I was got a nice big bag of coral skeleton rubble for $30! I'll be going back in a couple days to get some livestock and take more photos. I'll update my review with photos. I didn't get her name but the young woman working the front was super friendly and so generous, she was clearly so passionate and excited about reefing. It's so refreshing to talk to someone at an LFS who is genuinely excited and passionate. Many hobbyists that work at stores tend to get jaded and aren't very friendly. She made our visit so much fun! Can't wait to go back and get more goods!

3 STAR FOR NO STOCK - As I am on a hunt for a new little fin…read morefriend, I am looking for a Betta fish. To support a local store, I went to the local store in RP called Fishy Business. To my surprise, the store had empty tanks all across the board with a very small amount of salt water. No fresh water and zero bettas. They had a spot that can hold about 30 bettas bit it was absolutely empty. Like no stock. I asked them how long theyve been open and they said 2.5 months ago since April. It's June. We left empty handed and our search continues. We are not supporting the big box stores that start with "P". We are patient. The store is super clean though. I like their floor and the gentleman was very nice. I just wish there was something to buy.

You found the BEST one, I promise…read more Since this review will be long, thought I would emphasize on the point of my review from the beginning... instead of making you read through everything. Many businesses will help you buy a new tank... but have you ever tried to get rid of one? Not just any old fish tank but a giant one, where you could probably teach your kid to swim in it... We are talking about 400-gallon fish tank that was built way too DIY, extremely heavy, filled with livestock, ton of sand and rocks. If you are not into fish, this is easily 4,000 lbs... with many surprise attacks from the DIY "Offense Team". You really want someone who knows what they are doing... unless you want a mini flood of saltwater in your living room.. I contacted MANY businesses including junk removal but wasn't satisfied due to poor communications, lack of planning/professionalism. Thankfully, I read about Ocean Treasures Servicing on social media and did my research/stalking via FB, IG, and... reef forums and found only great things. The owner himself, Daniel, came down all the way from SF for a in person consultation then emailed me a meticulous thought-out plan on step by step of removing the giant tank. The Game Day - Daniel came with 3 team members + 1 cargo van + 1 U-Haul (this thing was huge..) Everyone from the team treated the house like their own, laid out floor protectant all over, swept every bit of sand before attempting to move any heavy items (a little sand that gets dragged can make quiet an impression on your floor), safely caught all the living creatures (all alive :D), and finished the job as if they literally CTRL+X the whole thing out of the house. Ocean Treasures Servicing is simply AMAZING. You would think after all the trouble of getting rid of a tank, I would be done... but NOPE! Since I found the best team I can trust, I am in the process of building a replacement one that is professional made by Daniel and his team...... No more DIY, unleveled, loud sounds, and random cuts from DIY stuff.... Don't Do it yourself, it's not worth it.. Trust Daniel and Ocean Treasures Servicing and just enjoy the hobby.

Well my wife needed someone to take care of her salt water fish tank, since she became preggers. We…read morefound Thorin via Yelp. At our first meeting we were really impressed, the tank looked awesome after his cleaning and my wife purchased several new fish. The problem was trying to get Thorin to come back for regular maintenance. After several phone calls it became one excuse after another, one time calling that day to say, " I don't have a babysitter." He would sometimes call or text several days after a scheduled appointment to say he'd have to reschedule. Eventually the tank suffered, and my wife lost almost all of her fish. Not sure what was going on, but reliability was a major issue.

I contacted Cesar for a "custom" set up including base stand, basking condo, and filtration system…read morefor a 5-year-old red eared slider turtle. I could have saved a lot of money (and time after the results) if I had purchased everything myself with tips from turtle forum sites and YouTube DIY videos, but I was willing to pay for a "professional" to have peace of mind and support a local small business. While Cesar was nice and knowledgeable about general tanks and filtration systems, the outcome of what we received shows that he is not an expert on what turtles fully need- he's more a filtration and fish expert as shown mostly on his website and Yelp photos. The setup we received was not adequate and required extra money (over 2k) to fix cosmetically and functionally for us to have good access from the basking condo to the tank. Let's start with the pricing issue. I had called Cesar to get some ballpark figures which he had provided with a guess. But when the final quote came ... it was around 1k higher than the ballpark pricing (a big difference!). Knowing the new higher prices, I still contracted him to help me since I wanted an expertly set up and permanent home for our 5-year-old red eared slider. Cesar presented himself as a knowledgeable trustworthy professional. The base stand was the first to arrive (about a month after deposit was paid). Please note that we never told Cesar to do a rush job as we were more focused on moving into a new home at that time. The base stand was about 40% of the total cost. He provided photos of the stand prior to delivery, and I approved it by looks only. When the stand arrived, it did look like the picture, but it seemed very basically put together despite Cesar's claim that the manufacturer said it was polycoated to help with waterproofing. I knew it wasn't stained since I didn't want to change the color. At that time, we had a contractor on site at our new home for remodeling who looked at the stand and confirmed that this was an incomplete unfinished product, with the front portion being anything of quality and purely cosmetic. Upon arrival, the stand had doors that did not open properly. The magnetic closures for the doors were cheap and crooked. The top and back was just plywood. The back and inside had many splinters and open drill holes. The overall wood was not smooth to touch and did not seem it was coated enough to be considered waterproof. Please see provided photos and note that the photo Cesar posted himself on Yelp on Sep 24, 2021, is NOT an accurate depiction of the quality he provided us. The blue stand pictured in his photos was AFTER our contractor spent 3 whole days having to sand down the door and paint it blue. Had I known the door would have been that big of an issue, I should have let the manufacturer fix it prior. But overall quality of the stand would probably have remained the same. The door would have been just rotated to match the grain, which would have caused less work for our contractor, so that part was my fault. During our initial complaint (before we put our own contractor to work), Cesar said his manufacturer was willing to fix it but at that point we didn't trust them to do so since there were many issues we had complaints about. To add fuel to our fire, Cesar initially claimed that he did not use his regular guy for the job (why did we get a 2nd tiered manufacturer when we paid the same rates as others) and later said this guy also does stands for him all the time. Then why did ours come so incomplete compared to what he shows online? After our initial complaint, Cesar did help us discount us a few hundred dollars but ultimately it wasn't enough to justify the amount of money spent after our contractor worked for days to make it right. However, we tried to be a good sport and continued to entrust Cesar to complete the rest of the contracted turtle filtration system and basking condo set up. When the condo arrived and filtration was set up, we were so excited to be able to transfer our red eared slider into his new larger home. The condo itself is good quality in materials but was not a custom structure. At first, we did not notice any issue with the condo but contacted Cesar after a few days. The ramp length was a bit short, and our heavier, older red eared slider turtle had a lot of trouble pulling his weight up to get on top to bask. This will only get worse as time passes and he grows larger, and turtles should bask comfortable daily for their shell health. The other issue was that we could not get our arms into the tank to move anything around which presents a HUGE ISSUE FOR SAFETY. It is also not easily able to be lifted off during emergencies. If you research custom turtle basking condos in forums, you will find that the ones that sit on top of the tank are mostly 50% in length so that you can still place your arm inside the tank to clean/move things around or perhaps save your turtle if stuck. Or the ones that have a full 100%
