It's probably a good thing you can't buy the fish directly from them when you visit, otherwise it would have been a very expensive trip because of all of the diverse types of fish here. Their free tour was about an hour and well worth it. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Come check it out!

We found Aquatic Galleria and we were so glad we did. The store had such an amazing variety of healthy and unique fish. It was also very clean and had such a nice modern vibe to it. Throughout the store you could find amazing aquascapes. Our favorite was the huge discus tank. We sat on the couch and admired it for a good bit! We are just in town for a bit so we didn't buy any fish but if we were local you bet I would've bought half the livestock inventory. But they do ship! So we might end up getting something from them anyways! So many amazing cichlids. I'm a big fan of apistos and they had the best selection. We wanted to support the store and get something so we decided to get some art. Little did we know the art we picked out was actually drawn by Ann! Ann is the sister of the owner, and she was so nice and welcoming. Her art work is all around the store and are purchasable! My girlfriend and I agreed that this was one of the nicest fish stores we've been to.. and we've been to ALOT! 10/10 would recommend!

My first visit I bought a gourami and some plants which were half the price of what I would spend at a chain store. He took the time to talk to me about where his fish come from and his history, which is fascinating! I told him my tank dimensions and he gave me lots of options to stock my tank. My gourami is still swimming happily with his new plants today. My second visit I bought a few tetras and an African dwarf frog (which was a dream pet for me!) and I also got some more plants... Unfortunately I had an issue with my tanks nitrate levels and my tetras weren't doing too hot. I called him immediately to ask for advice and he gave me great advice that ended up saving my tetras. He really cares about what he does and his customers. He carries all ranges of fish, saltwater, freshwater, giant and tiny. Even stingrays and eels. All of his fish are quarantined prior to arriving in his store, so his fish are healthy and taken care of. He has many plants and will accommodate special requests for you. Not to mention, but his prices are unbeatable for the quality. If you are a seasoned aquarist or just looking for a new hobby, please check out this place and speak to Paul!
