Found this store by accident and couldn't be happier that finally there is an option for fish and…read moresupplies outside of the box stores in the area. Their selection of fish is something PSmart, or PSupermarket has never had. The tanks are not spit shined the cleanest but the fish are happy and none were seen floating stuck to the filters as you see in the other stores. The merchandise stock and brand selection doesn't seem to be large but they had all the essentials and indicated they could order what you needed if not seen in the store. All in all, I liked what I saw and it seems these guys know their fish and are set up to offer a nice variety not found in our area. They specialize in quality fish more than housekeeping and that is what counts.

The BEST aquarium and reef store in the RDU area. Excellent prices, exceptional and knowledgeable…read morestaff that are truly passionate about the addiction.. I mean hobby. When we first started in this; we used to go to a couple other places in Wake Forest and in Raleigh and were taken for a ride by people that were just out to make a buck. These guys are not them. They are 100% into it and will never steer you wrong. We buy our frags from the Reef Farm a few miles from Wake Forest and our fish from Fintastic. Do yourselves a favor - save the time and money and don't waste time with anyone else in the area. I can't recommend them enough.

Used to be really nice. Since the owner got sick and his son took over, things have really fallen…read moreinto a bad place. He doesn't know anything about the hobby. They can't keep corals alive and don't stock dry goods. Not worth visiting unless you need inverts or (maybe) fish.

They've definitely gone down hill within the last 2 years or so. I've gotten loads of platys from…read morethem. Sometimes I am in need of a restock but refuse to buy from them at all. Some tanks definitely seem diseased and not cleared of deceased fish . I've seen fish act a bit erratic and ill. But their products have a wide variety and when the tanks seem okay, they have a really nice stock of fish and always seem to have what I need. Salt water tanks seem pretty great, plants have always been clean and safe of traveling snails. I still come here quite a lot. I enjoy it!

I enjoyed this shop and the atmosphere inside was pleasant. A staff member made their rounds to each customer to see if they wanted help yet. I read all the reviews on Yelp before visiting and it is clear to me that only people with a chip on their shoulder, maybe competitors in business, are posting such negative "stories". And that is the problem with bad attitudes, you will never be successful until you fix your attitude first.

I've been Reefing for 20+ years. It's always best to put your eyes on a fish or coral. It's rolling the dice when you get It off the net. Even if it survives their is a ton repeat ...a ton of variation between species. Staff is very friendly and very helpful.

Again they built a beautiful pond but do not count on them to service your pond after it is installed. I spent 75,000 dollars with them and feel like I was lied to. They specifically sold me on their maintenance packages. My pond is now full of algae and I am having a hard time finding someone to service it.

Not only is this a great place to buy supplies but the displays onsite are very engaging for adults and children alike. Visitors can feed and interact with the koi who are people friendly. Fish prices are reasonable and come with a limited 30 day return policy. Plants are a little pricey but also come with a guarantee that requires a water sample. Visiting is free to the public and an enjoyable experience.
