The service tech said, "that wasn't like that," yet he had just serviced this pristine tank 30 min prior. He called his boss and told them my tank was in amazing shape and that all silicone was in great shape as well (I have a recording of that). I also have him saying that he couldn't fix it right then and there bc he's in salary (but thought it was ok to leave my brace hanging in the water). He said he or someone else would be by to fix it in the morning. I received a text from the boss man saying that if I wanted it fixed, they'd charge me a repair fee AND I had to buy the silicone. Great CS, right? NOT!!! I expressed my dissatisfaction and he then just quit writing - yet charged my CC for the full amount next day. A $30 dollar fix will cost them 100's if not 1,000's in negative PR.

His shop has a variety of corals, fish, and some inverts along with lots of equipment available as well. I tend to call ahead of time to see if he has specific things I'm looking for and Dennis will usually be pretty good at letting you know if its available. One time he also found something after I called and he followed up to let me know he found it and saved it for me. It is a smaller shop and may have more of an eclectic variety of livestock but they seem to carry quite a bit of equipment. I do wish it were closer so I could just make an easy trip to check things out but it may be good that its further for me as I can't always buy new things.

I looked at so many types half moon, black orchid, mustard, crown tail, double tail , veil tail, dumbo , and koi. So many options and so many colors. The 2nd time I was there I was talking to a young man he was very patient and informative. He showed me many options due to a back injury I needed help carrying the tank set up to my home. I planned on returning on Saturday to buy a tank, plants and gravel etc because I would have assistance that day. Through much searching I found a beautiful, peppy and responsive male beta. I purchased him that day along with food etc. I was going going to house him in a temporary home till Saturday. Unfortunately Friday night I had an incident with my fridge so I could not come back to purchase the set up. So now my betta is housed in a 1 gallon with a filter. I do plan on coming back later to purchase a 2 gallon or 2.5 gallon as I originally planned. I highly recommend this place they have a wide selection of plants, fish, plants and shrimp! Definitely will be returning!

I purchased a used Kessil light from Fish Gallery--not an open-box item. The light was originally…read morepriced at $469, and I purchased it for $429 after being told it was used. When I bought the light, I was informed that it did not include the original Kessil power adapter. A store associate provided me with a different 90W power adapter and assured me it would work. Unfortunately, after getting home, I discovered that the adapter did not work with the light. Since I needed the light immediately, I had no choice but to purchase the correct Kessil power adapter online for $45 and pay for overnight shipping so I could use the product. I contacted customer service to ask if the store could reimburse me or provide a $45 store credit for the replacement power adapter, I received no response after this request. What is most disappointing is that I spent over $1,000 at the Fish Gallery on Fountain View that day, and it appears the company is willing to lose a customer over $45. In addition to the missing original power adapter, the used light was also missing its original hanging hardware. This experience has left me very disappointed. I expected better customer service and support, especially considering the amount I spent. It's unfortunate that such a small gesture to correct a problem caused by an incomplete used product was not considered worthwhile.

BEST decision we've ever made. They are extremely professional and send thorough reports immediately following their walk with a GPS map of the walk route, a great little blurb about their visit, and a number of adorable photos! I started looking forward to these reports each day! You can honestly feel the love they have for Archie which makes us so happy. I've attached a few photos that I've received from them over the past few weeks. You can also book appointments, see reports and handle invoicing all from their easy to use app. If you're looking for a dog walker that you can trust - look no further. Houston Dog Butler is the best of the best.

My dogs are accustomed to being around, just our family and don't always be friend new people readily. They immediately took to the owner, Brian. Our dogs are on a diet where they have a mixture of dry and wet food that require refrigeration or freezing. That was no problem at all for the owner to accommodate. The fellas looked well cared for when my son picked them up! My son forgot to check for the dogs blankets when he picked them up and Brian kindly drove them down to the city where we live so that the dogs would have them.

Before she went, I'd worked with her on sit, down, take it, leave it, and some spins with decent success. Brian took what she had and built on it, adding heel, come when called, turn, and stay. He returned a noticeably different dog. When we hit some bumps shortly after, he came back out and spent a solid hour with me going over what was actually happening...not just commands and corrections, but why she was behaving the way she was and what she needed from me to feel secure. (Spoiler: she needed me to be more confident and consistent.) He has a way of cutting straight to what matters without overcomplicating it, and more than once he said exactly the right thing at exactly the right moment. What struck me most across both experiences was how much genuine wisdom he brings to his work. He's clearly someone who has learned his craft through deep experience and observation, and it shows in every interaction with the dog and with the owner. On top of all of that, his pricing was incredibly reasonable; boarding and training combined for what many trainers charge for training alone. We felt genuinely taken care of. Kind, patient, perceptive, and exactly what we needed. Highly recommend.
