It is a little hole in a wall fish store. But they have great fish and good prices.

Bought one fish from here and it gave my whole tank ich... killed all my fish. At least 500 dollars in fish dead. Fish I've had for years all gone.. do not buy from here. This place is really run down and dirty. All the pictures are old on here. Look at yelp.

Good selection, just wish the place was better lit, but overall good prices, good fish, nice guys behind the counter. Definitely a good stop for Koi and small cichlids.

Intro/Prices: First off. I have been coming here since 1999. 20 years! Let me tell you, no one has better prices on fish than Hope(owner). Not even close. Small/Medium sized Cichlids-$5.99. Global Aquatics charges $14.99. Petsmart/Petco - $12.99 and up for small Cichlids. Walmart charges $8.00 and up for super small Cichlids(it's a gamble with Walmart fishes the are often sick). Fontana Tropical Pets charges $29.99. No BS! It's a fact that this is the cheapest place!

Customer Service: Hope and his Friend Al are great guys. They are always helpful, Always smiling, Always have time to give advice and ideas. I have never felt rushed or bothered in anyway. They greet my 6 year old and give him love and attention. Hope helps teach my Son a bit of Mandarin every time we come in. Al plays great music and also has plenty of fish wisdom. I refuse to go anywhere else.

Fish: I recently bought about 17 fish (Cichlids/Plecostmus/Silver Dollars) for my 45 Gallon Upright Octagon tank. I also bought about 25 assorted community fish for my Son's 45 Gallon Standard tank. No fish died. I'll say that again, No fish died! When I was younger and frequenting this location my fish did not die either. Hope knows his stuff. I read other reviews stating that there are tons of dead fish. This is not true. They have to be bad customers. Every single fish place will have a few dead fish here and there. There is no getting around that. That is part of the business. Fish get stressed and often sick being transported from here to there. Hope sells healthy fish. Period!

Cleanliness: Is this place filthy? No. Is it immaculate? No. Remember, this place has been here for over 20 years. The building is old. He has accumulated a lot of stuff. Two Males run this place and they get super busy helping people and taking care of stock. The cleanliness is more than OK and that is all that matters. Come to the best Fish Store around!

I don't know where to start on this. I came here looking for a new aquarium shop on my hunt for specific species. I guess I'll start with my first impressions which was are they opened No one was in the shop, it was dark and very dirty. Lights barley working, and you are hit with an awful smell of ammonia and cat piss. I am perplexed as to how they are opened. Areas of trash piled up high. Rows of aquariums that have sick and dead fish, or so much algae that you can not see what's inside. Rows blocked off by a piece of wood drilled into the stands with fish at the end that don't look like they have not seen light before. Massive fish in tiny tanks. Some areas looked liked it belonged ether in a horror movie or on hoarders.

Had a nice selection of fish. Great prices. Some fish were dead he had not yet taken out but it was 10:05 he had just opened, so I'm guessing he hadn't gotten to cleaning them out yet.
