I don't know saltwater, but I do know koi well enough - and this place has at least a…read morefew fish you aren't going to find anywhere else in Colorado, maybe even the United States (if I haven't picked them up first) Both Japanese and American koi, with the buyer having a solid eye for traditional characteristics as well as some of the newer colors and fin-types being bred stateside. They are passionate about fish and give solid advice - the store and grounds are evidence of their expertise and are worth checking out even if you're not needing a fish. It's just beautiful. The aquatic plant selection is fantastic and diverse even later in the season. Just highly recommend you check this place out. Given their standards on koi I would suspect the 'reef' side of the house is just as good.

It has been our pleasure to see such large and extraordinary koi! Just sitting by their koi pond would keep us occupied for hours. This store is not to be missed. They also have a good selection of fresh and saltwater fish. My favorite fish were their blue and honey gouramis, and their tetras. Definitely coming back again.

Well, no problem! This amazing staff will have you covered with any questions you might have.

I haven't gotten to know many of the others (not yet at least) but if the rest of the staff is as friendly/knowledgeable as these guys, then you'll definitely be ok. Check it out!

Then our established fish in the tank started dying. I called them to tell them they should maybe check the cory cats they still have to be sure they are not passing a disease to other people. Mason talked over me while I was telling him what happened, and essentially spoke to me as if I was an idiot. Completely rude. Will not be returning to this business. Zero stars, Mason.

Customer service for the most part is excellent. Staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. Not quite the selection that Denizens of the Deep (former occupant) had, but it is growing. I just called with a problem with my tank's water quality and the guy on the other end spent more than 15 minutes giving me info and advice. You may find cheaper supplies at PetCo, but this place is worth a few extra pennies, by far.
