Simply the best aquarium & exotic reptile shop I have ever been to. The shop is always full of customers, and super knowledgeable staff helping them. I learned everything under water from conversations with Brandon the owner. He, his team, and even family members are all absolutely top notch. I would rather take a lap at this shop, than spend a day at any aquarium within a thousand miles. Keep it up y’all!

I've been driving to purchase from them for years., all the way from Bella Vista. I'm always amazed at the creativity and size of the fish tanks. I can find cheaper products at times, but I still prefer to make the drive because they are worth it. The staff are very friendly and helpful. They will make suggestions if you're unsure with all the choices. Please give them a chance and you'll be amazed. I just stopped by again today and took these pictures

Brandon always has the best stock. Even when I owned my own LFS I would make special trips to buy from him. Always worth the drive and always has great deals!

A very relaxed, no pressure environment with great deals on new & used products. The staff is extremely knowledgeable. Management is very receptive to ordering special items. Overall, it is an amazing place to shop for freshwater stuff. Their saltwater is over the top good, w frags all the way up to show sized pieces. All fish appear healthy and active! A shop worthy of a few hour drive if you’re in Tulsa, Little Rock, Springfield areas and wanting a road trip worth your time, this is it...with size couch to chill and take it all in.

Always friendly and ready to help with any problems. I would recommend going to them when you are setting up a tank. Don’t listen to the advice from the big box stores.. come here first.

Worlds under water is a wonderful establishment. They have a variety of selection along with excellent customer service. The guys working there really know their stuff. Javi helped my family and I out especially. He answered all our questions with ease and was very patient with us. Definitely recommend Worlds Under Water for any of your home aquatic needs!

Super helpful people who know their stuff! Bought a used filter from them that ended up having a leak. Brought it back and they replaced the broken part and gave me unit they took the replacement part from for no charge! All really nice and helpful employees!

AMAZING place! Beautiful, healthy, happy fish.. custom tank services, planted tank help, massive selection. First time walking in, when I told them I was new to the hobby, they gave a ton of tips, walked me through how to set up a tank, and told me to come in more for advice once I start the tank. Very friendly, helpful staff. Fish are literally so alert that they respond to touch on the tank and follow the hand. Biggest coral and anemone selections I've ever seen, and they even bring in rescues! I'll definitely be coming back.Note: Everything in the tanks in the pictures below is alive, including the beautiful plants.

This is going to be lengthy. Let me start by saying im new to the salt water tank world. Walking in and talking to Brandon, the owner, i couldnt be more impressed. Below is a review of items that i had Brandon order, deliver and install for my wife and I. Not only an amazing setup but simply the most knowledge about all of the enterworkings of the setup.Once they delivered and sat it up I felt comfortably knowledgeable enough to keep up with the system and do small maintenance if something was to go wrong. Heck I even know how to make my own RODI water and salt water at home to save ourselves a trip.Now that we are approaching the ugly phase, we've added a few corals and 1 little snail. I've included photos of the setup, the professional wiring job, the phases from before we added water to cloudy water and how algea has begun growing on the live rock. Bellow is specific information on our setup that I've posted on some forums.Big thanks to Brandon and his crew!*****************************************Some have asked and I want to give a breakdown of everything we installed on our 150 gallon salt tank. We will be testing the water tomorrow and hopefully adding our first fish!We've got a 150 gallon tank set up with an overflow. For some reason the tank builder put in 2 dividers across the top instead of keeping it open. Therefor we are still waiting for the proper glass tops for the tank. They should be in next week.We put sand in the bottom and sat/stacked live rock on top with no glues as of yet. We installed 2 WAVELINK POWERHEADS, one on each side.On top, under a 12" canopy we have 3 RADION XR15 LEDs with hanging kits. We started with 2 but added a 3rd due to the 2 dividers on top. These lights are simply amazing. They mimic everything from sunrise to sunset and even storms with lightning. It's all controlled through an app and they work amazingly.Underneath we went with a full sump setup. Protip with plumbing this thing. We started by dropping out of the tank with 90° angles and straight piping into the sump tank. It made the system sound like a washer draining all day. To fix it you simply swap the 90° to the sump tank and drop straight from the bottom of your main tank.We have an auto top off with a reservoir. A EHEIM heater, TIDELINE 36" sump, and a OCTOPUS REGAL 150 skimmer. We are not running the skimmer as of yet but will be starting it up soon. We also have a MAXSPEC JUMP 8k return pump, and a TURBO TWIST UV light with a pump.Before too long we will probably start working on a refugium.I will try to add pictures of everything listed.THINGS YET TO COME:FishLighting underneath to see the sump and system better.Aquaticlife Water filtration system so we can make our own water.Salinity Refractometer.Hygger Algea Scraper.Feeding rings.

I had no idea what I was doing when I walked into Worlds Under Water, but I left with excitement and some really quality gear to get my tank started. These guys know their stuff. Also, the fish were so healthy! Even the bettas had a plant and a filter system. I've never seen that before. They also have some really nice chameleons!

these guys are not about business, theyre about fish, they respect the products they sell and will equip you for success. Brandon and his staff are all incredibly overqualified and they are super nice.

I've had nothing less than amazing experiences here. The staff are so amazing and helpful, even with situations that aren't pleasant to have to deal with. Amazing place to get quality products and fish! Highly recommend.

These guys went out of their way to help me. I started driving over an hour before I realized I'd be there right at closing. I called them and let them know how far I was traveling and they had no problem staying open for me. If you're interested in stocking your new tank or adding something interesting these guys are the ones to talk to. I've been to fish stores from here to Springfield, mo and nobody has the fish this place has.

Amazing salwater fish and corals! Decent prices for healthy, hearty animals! I will definitely return again and again! Staff is amazing, very friendly, and knowledgeable! It's one of the best LFSs! Definitely check this place out! I bought a Royal Gramma Basslett and 2 ricordea frags, and they are still hearty and are growing and happy as ever!

Update- Another great experience at the store. My tank is having issues, and it's affecting my fish very badly. I called and got some advice and they even offered to test my water. I brought a sample in, and what they found was significant. They helped me find the right products and gave me step by step instructions. And everything was very affordable. I spent less than $30. Shout-out to Seth who helped me today. Thank you for everything. I will always recommend this place to any fish lover.Amazing place! I used to go to PetCo for my fish and my supplies, but I found this place, and I will never go back to Petco. World's Underwater always has clean tanks, and the fish are cared for. It's professional yet has a personal, welcoming feel. I learn something new everytime I go in, and I've been able to call and ask for advice regarding my fish or my tank on multiple occasions. I have to give a shout-out to Ben who is just the nicest guy and always makes my experience there something to remember and to look forward to. Highly recommend!!!

This is by far, the best local fish store/aquarium store in NW Arkansas. They have both saltwater and freshwater livestock, supplies, hardware, food, etc. All of their employees are very knowledgeable. Their selection of fish, invertebrates, corals are vast. They also have used equipment that is in great condition. If you are looking to have an aquarium professionally installed this is the only place to even consider.
