    First time here and made the drive from Virginia to buy some pond fish. Got some 3-4" koi at a…read moregood price and some snails. They also have a great selection of pond play. Staff member was helpful and informative.

    Wow I really wanted to like this place because of the selection of fish, coral and algae they have…read morehere. This was my second experience here & I went to check out and asked if I could split my transaction in 2 since I was a few dollars away from my reward (I had spent $243? the first time I came here and I think you need to spend $250). ((I don't care how u look and I love piercings but for the sake of this employee getting held accountable I'm describing her)) The shorter lady with piercings all over her face looked at me, rolled her eyes and said "I don't know! Why don't you ask the people in line behind you if THATS OKAY" while throwing her hand up. ... there was one couple in line behind me... I was so stunned and caught off guard that I just said it's fine don't worry about it. But I really thought I was in a fever dream. She ended up splitting the transactions without saying anything but she oddly threw the receipts in the paper bag forcefully and was huffing the whole time. I'm thinking What the actual bleep is going on?????!!?? It's New Year's Day and I was going into this thanking the employees for being open just trying to shop for fish with my dad. Well I'm really glad I did use the $5 coupon because I'll never be going back there. Just don't go here. I've never experienced such awful customer service before.

    It's so nice to go into a store and the employees actually know a lot about what they are selling…read more I had problems with a pond pump. After years of buying pumps that lasted less than a year, they provided me with one that worked for 4 years and were then able to †hen provide me with a new part. They have saved me so much money and so many headaches. They also have an incredible variety of critters to put in aquariums and ponds. The owner is very careful about getting fish, etc., that have gone through the proper channels so they are not carrying diseases.

    I still love this place, and despite being significantly further from home than other pet stores, I…read morestill find myself making time for it. The fish selections continue to be amazing, and I have awesome interactions with the staff. Most recently, one had a Majora's Mask tattoo so we just HAD to have a full conversation about fish with a side of Zelda. Video game jokes aside, whenever I have a question about the fish, or even if it's not a question and it's just one I know I want, the staff are always upbeat, enthusiastic, and you can tell that this aquarium life is their thing. They give advice and basically hype your selections haha. For anyone in the state of Maryland who is into aquariums, I recommend stopping by this store. It's well worth the visit. You can either park on the back where the store is, or on the front side which has a lot more stores and the parking lot is bigger, but it stays busy and fills up quickly. Pick your challenge!
