    Their fish are over priced. check carefully any signs of parasites, ick and fin rot when you want to buy fish from them.

    Got my first fishies here, (who were both Betta fish) and they surprisingly lived for 4 years :)…read moregreat owner, great service!

    THE ONLY STORE I BUY ANY FISH FROM! I started my first aquarium a few years ago, and quickly…read morestarted learning how much there is to fish keeping more than just throwing some food in the tank. First I learned through trail and error, but quickly I realized that won't suffice, so I started really studying up on it and learned a whole lot about it. So when I finally figured out how to correctly set up the aquarium, and water. To give the fish a chance to survive and thrive. But that's when I also realized something else, that now, after more than a year of tinkering, and learning about fish keeping, that now that I knew more, I realized I'd have to be crazy to buy any fish from any of my local chain stores, like Petland Discounts, Petco, Pet smart. Etc. Cause if you look closely at those fish, you can clearly see all kinds of signs of diseases and illnesses. I guess the only way they sell any, is to people that really don't know how to tell if a fish looks healthy or not. So basically for the last 3 or 4 years now I've been buying every single of my fish from Temco here. Of course there is the occasional dead fish that didn't take to my tank well. But at least for the most part if I treat them right, they live and prosper. I wouldn't let you put a fish from any of those stores in my aquarium, if you gave it to me for free, and even if it looked perfectly healthy. Because I've seen the tanks they're coming out of. I'll attach a photo of my goldfish aquarium. I have now a beautiful exotic collection of different types and colors of goldfish. All healthy and beautiful, and diseases and parasites free. So yea, maybe I pay a little(!) More power fish than the chain stores, but it's well worth the headaches and stress it saves me. (And it's not really that much more expensive)

    I had a great experience here when I recently adopted a kitten from Sean Casey Animal Rescue. The…read morestaff was very personable and helpful, and seemed genuinely committed to what they were doing. I have heard that trying to adopt a cat in NYC can sometimes be a trying, time consuming and overall unpleasant experience, but my experience here was the total opposite. I spoke to someone nice on the phone to get details about the cats they had, and they offered to hold a female kitten who sounded perfect until I was able to come in. Well, perfect she was and in less than an hour they had all my paperwork processed, called my references, approved my application, went over her medical records with me, and recommended a great food from their pet store to me. Not to mention that she is the sweetest little lovebug anyone could imagine and has been a total joy- used the litterbox from day one, gets along with my dog, only scratches her scratching post, I could go on for days! While in the store I also took a peek at all the exotic animals they had- I can honestly say I never thought I would see a tortoise the size of a dog just freely roaming around a pet store in Brooklyn! They also had snakes, iguanas, lizards, guinea pigs, hamsters, and parakeets (due to legalities regarding the keeping of exotics in city limits, certain types of animals are only available with proof of address outside of NYC). They are the only place that I've come across in NYC that offers its (excellent) rescue services to these cast off exotic animals and it's wonderful to see a place committed to helping every homeless animal that needs help- not just the ones that are cute and fluffy and easy to find homes for. Their facebook page is great too! Staff members check the page and love to see updates on pets that have found homes!

    This place is fantastic! Great array of supplies and pet foods for all kinds of pets. Pretty…read moreremarkable for such a tiny place. And i love that they adopt out animals in need of homes. Sean Casey has done the neighborhood a service by opening this great little shop, and the animals of NYC a service by helping them find good homes. hes not hard on the eyes, either. :)
