Ami and Dave are awesome. They have helped me with so much over the last 10 years or more. I've learned many great things about the hobby over my years going here. They always treat me good. Heather and Tom are always super helpful and willing to go above and beyond to make sure customers get the correct replacement parts or products in general. Happy to recommend western slope aquatics to all my friends and family.

My go-to for hard to find aquarium supplies and blackwater botanicals. I make sure to always plan my roadtrips so I can stop on my way home to Eagle. Healthy and unique fish and crustaceans both marine and fresh. Always worth a stop!

Healthy fish, GREAT advice, fair pricing and exceptional customer service. This is how this local fish store helped me: Just started fish keeping last July. No experience. They walked me through aqua scraping two separate tanks. 25 gallon askoll river filter design tank and the Fluval flex 9 gallon for our betta fish. All fish, tanks, live plants, and everything I have needed I have bought through this store. I had zero issues along this journey because any questions I had- their staff would answer and in some cases find an immediate solution. Amazing selection on fish and all supplies needed. Their completed tank deals are epic when compared to other local stores and Amazon.

Amazing deals on full setups. Only thing is the air pump is pretty loud lol. But amazon has the tetra whisper for $15 so no biggie. My tank took 4 hours to build while doing other things. Turned out spectacular.

We love this place. Amy is wonderful and so very knowledgeable. We won't buy our fish or anything for them from anywhere else.

The best fish store for already a hundred miles in any direction. Their prices on equipment are reasonable. Livestock prices seem steep at times but again... the oasis in the desert. Staff are super knowledgeable and willing to help people of all levels/experience. For stars because I wish there saltwater livestock was more sustainable/ tank-bred focused, and to be an industry issue but restrained have some say in suppliers demand.

Helped with our fish eggs that we just got, set us up with a better filtration system, have bought fish from here with great success, and the quality of products yall carry blows any other retail store out of the water.

Great experience! We just became fish owners and knew absolutely nothing about them except from what Petsmart had told us (which wasn't allot nor informative). We came W.S. Aquatics and wow, so informative and incredibly helpful. We love shopping local and this family owned since 1969 business is the only place I will go now for all my aquatic needs. So many beautiful fish and accessories as well for all tanks and sizes.

I love this place very helpful people. Very kid friendly also. I'm having issues with my water and the 2 people working they put us on the right track to figure out what's going on with our water. I definitely recommend this place.

I have had great results on fish. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable on the products and what needs done to your tank. We took a picture of one of our sick fish and they got me what I needed to cure my fish. They are family owned and been around for many years.

Would definitely recommend. Very passionate staff which translates into a helpful staff unlike Petco where the staff has no clue. I appreciate the time and the great prices.

Service and quality is unmatched. Dave and the team offer the best prices, and knowledge. I wanted a specific aquarium with specific specs and Dave had it delivered ASAP. The selection is impressive of any aquatic specialist and they are always eager to help. I have been in the store 50+ times this summer, making adjustments to my setup and each time service is better than the last.

My family and I love getting our fish from this family business!! Their fish are always healthy and happy and they are extremely knowledgeable about fish and aquarium care. We love even more that they don’t turn their customers away that are choosing not to comply with face masks. We love supporting them and will continue to do so!

Love this shop and the lady who owns it. She is so knowledgeable and kind. Sweet talks me into spending more than I intended to every time and I'm never disappointed. This is a local shop that deserves 6 stars

Great selection of tanks in all sizes, and I was really happy to see that their bettas aren't in cups. Once we're ready to add stock our tanks we'll definitely be back for their colorful shrimp.

I have trusted the wonderful people at Western Slope Aquatics since I moved to Grand Junction for all of my aquarium needs. They recently were kind enough to care for my fish while I was improving their aquarium in my office. I would recommend this business to anyone who wants healthy fish, great fish supplies and good information!

I used to shop J&M Aquatics because I didnt know any better. I tolerated their terrible customer service for far too long. For the past year I’ve always gone to Western Slope Aquatics first, and only go to the other store if WSA doesn’t have what I need. The staff at Western Slope is phenomenal, the whole family. They are always patient with my dumb questions and always entertain my two year old by talking to him about the fish. I wish I had found them first and never wasted my time at the other store. I’ll be a die hard WSA customer until I die.
