Beautiful fish selection! Check out this long fin albino bristle nose pleco! Also a great selection of plants. Thanks Darrell for letting me trade in my loach!

Awesome store. Been coming here for about 2 years now since they first started up. They have done nothing but get better and better. Lots of time and dedication put in by the owner. He always has the best advice and recommendations. About 80% of my coral and livestock have came from Darrell’s.Traded for a BTA with one of the employees last Saturday. I wish I remembered his name but he recommended some awesome food to me that I can already tell a difference in some of my fish. Each time he has helped me he has given me equally positive advice. It feels like the employees are all family, finding a store that puts this much time and dedication into training their staff and keeping beautiful livestock healthy is hard in 2023. I pray this store continues to hold up to its high standards for years to come, I will always be a customer at this establishment.

On my first visit I purchased over $300 worth of fish and supplements for my 75 gallon freshwater tank. 3 weeks later I was shocked that I hadn’t lost 1 single fish of the 40 + I bought. Including 15 Neon tetras. Prices are well below what I expected. The assortment for fresh and saltwater fish is amazing. Staff is courteous, knowledgeable, and eager to help. I only have live plants in my tank and they are still thriving. Other than the ones the fish nibble on that is. This has proven to be the case on my return visits as well.

Great Local fish store. Beautiful tanks and knowledgeable staff. Lots of freshwater fish in stock and their shipment was coming in the next day. Not a salt water tank person but those tanks looked good. Not as well stocked as fresh but still some selection as you can see In the videos. Found out here that another pet shop had closed down so I imagine Darrell’s will pick up a lot of that slack.

Darrell has a passion for the aquarium hobby that is almost contagious and he is happy to share the knowledge he’s accumulated over the years whether you are new to the hobby or been at it for years. He has a large selection of beautiful fish at reasonable prices and if he doesn’t have it in stock he can get it for you. I have been happy with every purchase and experience I’ve had at Darrell’s Aquarium and I don’t think he’s ever not had something I’ve needed.

My husband and I wouldn’t have the saltwater aquarium we have today without Darrell and Ken and the rest of the staff. They are always so helpful, kind and patient!! Our fish and coral are always healthy and beautiful!! We never shop anywhere else for our fresh and saltwater aquariums!!!

Darrell’s aquarium is by far the best aquarium store I’ve been to (and I’ve been to a bunch!) Darrell and Kenny have been so helpful and patient with me and my million questions! I went from having one 45g freshwater tank to multiple freshwater tanks and multiple saltwater tanks, one being 210g. I feel completely confident in my fish keeping abilities now, especially knowing I have their expertise to fall back on anytime I need them!

I absolutely LOVE this store !! Darrell is very well educated with salt and fresh water aquariums and all the living things in them! Brian is also knowledgeable with it and I will not buy my salt water fish or corals from anywhere else! It’s a very nice location and big selection of things. I have been going to the store for a few months now and highly recommend them!!! Darrell you’re awesome and so is your crew! Thanks for everything! ❤️

Today my wife and I visited the store for the first time. We were met by the owner who was very informative and helpful as was the other employee in the store. They have a nice selection of both fresh and salt water fish and prices seemed reasonable and the selection of fish was very good. We will definitely return in the near future.

My go to store for fish and coral. I always have a great experience at Darrell’s. Amazing customer service. Even if I don’t need anything I love to stop by and talk reef. Darrell will bend over backwards to make sure you are a satisfied customer. And he is truly a hobbyist at heart. My kids also love his Coi pond and huge saltwater fish. Definitely worth the drive

I love Darrell's shop. He is very personable and knowledgeable. He will order you almost anything you can imagine. Even shark eggs. I recommend checking Darrell's shop out if you haven't already!

Living in Lakeland, the reef shop stores are scarce and after Nolan’s saltwater fish shutdown, I was stuck with Petco…until I stumbled across your gem of a store. Keep it up!

This team at Darrell’s is beyond exceptional. They answer all my questions and are knowledgeable about all the stuff I have purchased. They are the reason I keep coming to the shop not to mention the variety of aquatics that is always available. They do an amazing job at getting stuff in if you request it. I will continue to do business with them and highly recommend driving from any distance to get here. They truly are the best.

Great fish store for both freshwater and salt. Lots of supplies. Best supplies of frozen fish food ice found in central FL. They even gave me a little cooler to put my frozen food in.

This is a great little shop with lots of fish to choose from and the owner is so fown yo earth and seems to want to help you in any way he can. For you salt water or fresh water aquarium needs stop by and check this little shop out. The only negative thing I can say is there is no sign out on the building just the sign on the door. He sells kois and many others has a lot of live rock as well.

There's a lot of fish variety. Great prices and deals if you buy multiple fish. All the staff is very friendly!

They were extremely friendly, professional and gave great advice for a beginner aquarium. They were very understanding of our 3 year old climbing up to see all the fish and putting her face and finger prints on everything lol they even let her feed the koi fish which she loved! He also told us they can order items/fish for us if they don't have what we're looking for. Darrells will be our go to local fish store from now on.

A bit small but they have all the basic fish people are looking for. Cool pond and tank near register. Goldfish looked very healthy. Lots of shrimp for sale. The entrance is underneath the All About Blinds sign.
