I love when a business takes the time to post their own hours and then does not follow them. 6:30 on a Monday and you're already closed. No sign, no updated hours.

Great place to pick up equipment for aquariums. Prices are fair and they have a wide variety of brands. They do not sell fish. Only equipment, accessories and food.

Placed an order and without explanation they cancelled my order. Since when does a business cancel an order without explanation. Be warned if you try to order anything from them.

NO FISH OR ANYTHING LIVE ONLY SUPPLIES. GUY LOOKED AT US LIKE WE BOTHERED HIM WHEN WE WALKED IN THE DOOR AND ASKED FOR FISH OR PLANTs. HE SAID DOES IT LOOK LIKE IT? WE LOOKED AROUND US AND HE LAUGHED AND SAID I DONT CARRY ANYTHING BUT SUPPLIES. SO IF YOUR LOOKING FOR FISH OR ROCK OR PLANTS DONT GO THERE. GUY WAS RUDE TOO. I MEAN WHY ADVERTISE GREAT SELECTION OF FISH AND THERE IS NOTHING NOT EVEN TANKS LIKE THEY SOLD OUT OR WAITING SHIPMENT NOTHING...BUT WE GOT THE ATTITUDE LIKE WE INTERRUPTED HIS DAY WALKING IN THE DOOR. Don't waste your time unless you need tank supplies.

Better prices on equipment than Amazon. Bought an Tetra air pump for less than $15, price on Amazon was over $20. Will def stop back in for future equipment purchases. Had reasonable prices and a wide selection of gear.

No longer sells fish. It's a rather cluttered array of quality foods, equipment and accessories for fishkeeping

Small store with no livestock but Jim has a lot of things for sale! And it’s cheaper than RMS down the street. I would go back.
