    One day I'll have one of these! #manifesting

    I want an aquarium now after visiting Aquascape. One of my favorite things as a kid was watching the fish and creatures in the aquariums my dad and grandpa diligently kept. Such work - but gosh, when done well, they are so much fun to watch! My roomie and I enjoyed looking at the various seascapes around the shop. This is the first shop we've seen plants and aquariums together in the same shop, and by all means, I am up to learn more! The perks from the Yelp event were great - black swag bag was a nice change from red Yelp merch. Also appreciated the free air plant and holder! Further, C.D. was extremely knowledgeable and professional and I appreciated his explanation for how to keep the air plant alive. Definitely not as easy as some make it out to be! Hopefully one day I'll get the courage to start an aquascape, but in the mean time, I'd recommend this place to any new and experienced plant lover! Thank you Yelp for another solid event :)

    Aquascape

    The owner of the store was very accommodating to all of my questions, definitely very knowledgeable and passionate about his entire store. He added that he was very against overcharging customers like a lot of other stores do (which I definitely agree with), and the small aquascape I bought was excellent in value! He packaged up the glass aquarium in two layers of plastic seal, bubble-wrap, and then paper filler, which made sure that it didn't spill or tip at all even with a pretty bumpy ride back home. So far, about four hours after the purchase, the plants and livestock are doing great and the light setup is perfect. Overall cost was 82.58$ for an aquascape with livestock and light, which was fantastic to buy pre assembled and all in one place. While it's not a cheap buy, it's much more worth it in the long run. Highly recommend the Arium Shop.

    Thanks for this great opportunity to learn about air plant. The store was super busy when I came which is great for the business. I walked around and saw not only air plants but some cool aquarium setups as well. The owner took the time to explain what kind of plant I picked, and provided detail information on how to care for it. I am just amazed at this little guy that doesn't need soil. It's a super cool store. If my plant survive past a couple months. I will be back for more. Thanks for the great lesson and perks! Love it!

    Set in the beautiful Gilman Village, Aquascape is a cute studio which transforms into a rainforest setting with plants all around you literally! (on the walls, hanging above your head) with music in the entire studio. The Owner, CD is a friendly owner who gives all the details, demo for any of the plants including the air plants or aqua plants. We bought a baby Bulbosa after seeing a larger Bulbosa plant which sits on his table under a table light and a glass enclosure as it will soon bloom! There are lots of different Pothos varieties & aquatic plants that you can keep for your aquarium. This was the first visit to Gilman village and absolutely loved the small, beautiful set of different types of shopping experience and restaurants in this village setup.

    Aquascape Studio reminded me to Amazon Spheres. It's warm and humid but the ambience is great, sort of like rainforest . Plants everywhere and great ideas if you want to decorate your home with new ideas. It was a little bit tricky to find the studio because there's no big sign at the entrance (the owner said it's on its way). But for those of you who have never been here before it's located in GILMAN VILLAGE (retail center with several local independent shops) What can you buy here? Air plants, aquatic plants, fish tanks, the owner will guide you in whatever your needs are. I'd say it's a little bit pricey but keep in mind you're getting high quality service/products. My piece of advise is be careful while bringing small children bc there are breakable items :(

    I have zero knowledge on air plants and did not quite sure what to expect when I came here, but I thought it would be a great learning opportunity. I got to meet the owner, CD, and his staff member, who were very friendly and helpful in educating me about what air plants are and how to care for them. They had great displays so I could picture how i want my plant to look in my home (ie on my desk, on my shelf, hanging in the window). After i picked my plant, they wrote down the name of it for me (Harrisii) so I could read more into it, and remember it for the next time. CD also walked me through what i should do with my plant weekly and daily to make sure i care for it. Along from air plants, you can also buy plantable herbs, fish tanks and things to care for your tanks, like cleaners and lights. I don't have the best green thumb, and I am not super into plants, but this was a positive experience for me and i enjoyed learning about a group of plants that I hopefully will not kill! For all of your plant needs, I recommend checking out Aquascape.

    This shop is so awesome, you walk in and are instantly transported to the tropics! The owner is really kind, patient and informative as I had a lot of questions about caring for air plants. I'll be back in soon because I didn't even know that there was going to be fish tanks with live plants and now I'm rethinking telling my kids they couldn't get a fish tank haha. I didn't know they could be so gorgeous and more importantly self sustaining. What a fun shop to visit. I can't wait to show my kids!

    Aquascape is such a neat store hidden in the Gilman Village. The store appears small from outside but once you are in the wow effect starts. They specialize in air plants and all the things you need to give your plant a great life as well as aquariums. The wall shelves are beautifully designed to showcast the air plants and planter solutions. I am impressed by how clean and organized the store is and how engaged the owner is. He really takes his time to help you and educate you on your purchase.

    I'm never buying my plants anywhere else! This spot just opened up in Gilman Village and I couldn't be more excited. The shop is so warm and inviting with the most amazing plant wall, orchids, aquariums and terrariums. The owner is super knowledgeable about the plant life and is able to offer plenty of advice on how to best keep your plant alive. I went home with a new mister, air plant, and pot. There are great items here that would make perfect gifts for anyone and there's even a station in the back for you to build your own perfect terrarium. Almost everything you see in the store on display is for sale and you can even commission custom furniture (loooove the concrete benches) and aquariums. I'll definitely be back!

    Really cute set up and they have a TON of supplies + plants! Some really rare and cute plants as well. I can totally see my friends loving this place and for a non plant mom like me, the staff did a great job teaching me about the different plants in the space and how to maintain them. Will definitely read up on some of my fav plants and be back!

    About to bloom!

    You're gonna be overwhelmed with how beautiful this place is when you walk in. It's modern, and flooded with greenery, terrariums, aquascapes and supplies. Mist and beauty everywhere! They carry both the supplies and some completely finished terrariums and water features. Each one caught my eye and I could find myself staring at them for much longer than anticipated. There's so much to see. The owner was incredibly kind and taught me about the plant that I've chose. Gave me specific and understandable instructions so I could love my new little plant buddy. Even if you just need to go somewhere to chill out and take in a beautiful sight, take a moment in this shop.

    Moss Balls
    Kacey Lei Q.

    Pretty new to aquascaping/taking care of a tank, but I knew I wanted moss balls when I walked in and some sort of clarifier for my tank - the water was getting dyed brown from the drift wood. Was going to buy the wrong thing but the worker recommended the right filter instead to get rid of the brown water! (Check out the before and after) I even got the moss balls I was in search for. I look forward to coming back when I'm ready to add more things to my tank :)

    What a cute shop in the middle of Gilman Village! My 3 year old enjoyed looking at the small aquariums and perusing the different air plants with me. The owner, CD, was super friendly and nice and was patient in explaining the basics of air plants to a novice like myself. Thanks to Yelp Elite I picked up a cute white airplant stand and airplant. It now sits proudly in my house where I have kept it happy and alive. It's so nice to visit small businesses like Aquaspace where they care about their customers and their products.
