The owner specifically told us he would hold one for us even though they don't typically do holds. We offered to pay in advance and were told not to worry about it because we had been calling weekly. My husband told him we would be in around 12:30. We arrived at 12:17 only to be told he sold them all and they had been open for 45 minutes and they had been busy. The owner acknowledged he told my husband he would hold one and barely offered an apology. We drive over an hour to this establishment. On multiple occasions had to wait long waits for salt water to be mixed. People waited on before us that arrived after us only to sell what we had been waiting for out from under us. The owners attitude is subpar at best and zero accountability when they or their employees make mistakes or offer incorrect information. If you want a crappy attitude with zero customer service skills then this is the place for you. If not I would shop elsewhere especially if you have to travel any sort of distance. Shipping may be cheaper from elsewhere at this point and at least you know your items are secured. We won't be returning!

First of all, for those of you complaining about the dogs, you are going into her HOUSE! They LIVE…read moreTHERE! Do you take your dog, into other peoples houses that have dogs? If you do, you don't have the brains of a fish! Her dogs have never been mean! They are protective of their home, but never try to bite! She knows what she is doing, and if you treat her with respect, she treats you with respect! She takes care of the fish, and her tanks are spotless! She will tell you the truth! If you want to take your dog, go to Petco,I can assure you, the fish will most likely die, because they dont care about their care, nearly as much as they should! I have gone here, for many years, and have been very happy with everything! You want nice healthy fish, go here!

Especially children. I got attitude for touching a shell to see the size for myself, I got attitude for handing her my debit card because she was going to need my pin.

I had a great time visiting Lake Tobias for the first time with my family. The animals and overall…read moreexperience were wonderful, and my children really enjoyed themselves. Unfortunately, we had a rude interaction with staff that took away from what could have been an even better experience. The encounter happened in the reptile area, specifically with the staff member handling the baby alligator. He instructed everyone who wanted to pet the alligator not to touch its head or body and to only touch the tail. My 6-year-old son, who was simply curious and genuinely interested in learning, asked why he couldn't touch those areas. Rather than taking the opportunity to educate a curious child, the staff member responded, "Because I said so." As a parent, I found that response disappointing. One of the wonderful things about places like Lake Tobias is that they provide children with an opportunity to learn about animals and nature. A simple explanation such as, "We don't touch those areas because the alligator could become scared or react defensively," would have answered my son's question while turning the moment into a learning experience. While we had a great time overall, I hope management considers providing additional training on customer service and, especially, how staff interact with children and families. A little patience, kindness, and education can make a huge difference in a family's experience.
