From the moment you walk in you feel like family instead of just another customer. Emily is a pleasure to work with and will give you honest opinions on everything. Eric is ridiculously knowledgeable and friendly. All the employees there are friendly and treat you well. The selection of fish is top notch. Corals are the same. Tomhas an amazing store and I will be back every chance I get even though it's an hour away. Thank you so much!!!PS. Pet the dog Valor, he loves the attention!

Recently found myself in Ocala on a work trip. Picked up a variety of mushrooms, a goby, and a long tentacle anemone to take home. John was very helpful and took his time with me, even providing a cooler to keep things in for the 14 hour drive home. Everything arrived happy and is looking very healthy in my DT. Clowns hosted the LTA within 5 minutes of placing in the tank and slept in it the first night!

Absolutely most professional company. I was terrified moving my tank to Ocala but these guys showed up and knew exactly what they were doing. Professionally cleaned the tank when it was empty and it looks brand new again. No livestock or corals were lost in the moving process. Highly recommend Kevin and Alex for any reef tank situations. Would give 100 stars if possible. Thanks again

Everybody there are so friendly, helpful and their knowledge about the stock that they carry is remarkable-they know their stuff. The cleanest and most well-kept saltwater pet store that I've been in. It is well worth the visit just to see what they have next.

Busy ,but clean some prices are good while some of the corals are over priced and miss identified. Was happy with my perchance though and they are thriving. Was a little worried about the bicolored blenny as the lady tried to shake it out of a shell( it was hiding in )while out of the water. So far so good. My first time visiting this store.

I’m new to salt water fishing. So far this store has the best selection I have seen. They provide at home services for a few but totally worth it. They answered all my questions no matter how dumb they were. I honestly feel like this is one of the most helpful locations I have ever been to specially for beginners. Would recommend to anyone new to the salt water fish world or existing.

This place is the best ! Fish and Coral always heathy, the staff is just great ! And very knowledgeable about fish and coral ! The thing I love is they don’t just sell you what you want, they sell you the things that would work in YOUR tank.

Love this place!!! It reminds me of my go-to reef shop when I lived in Memphis, TN. (Memfish, LLC) below was my 40 breeder stocked almost entirely by Memfish. Sadly, it no longer exists... but I have plans to start up a nano reef and now I know exactly where I'll be sourcing my new tank inhabitants from 😁

This is a really great store! Very clean, always fully staffed. The store has been busy every time we have gone in and we never have to wait more than a couple minutes for help! One of my favorite things is they sell already prepared salt water for water changes! This makes that process very easy for us! And we have got some truly amazing additions from here to bring some versatility to our tank! Highly recommended. Every person we have worked with in the store is very knowledgeable, it’s impressive to have such a passionate group of employees!

Absolutely love this store. I started out salt water with this store and they have been the most friendly and helpful store I’ve ever encountered. Any issues that arises they always have the answers for whatever I need as a beginner. I recommend this place for any knowledge of saltwater as they will always take care of you regardless. Beautiful fish/corals. Everything seems extremely cared for and catered to perfection.

Super helpful staff! I had a project to make a self-sustaining ecosystem so I messaged them asking if it was possible for aquatic creatures to live in it and if they had the said creatures. I got a response informing me that they're a saltwater store so they didn't have the needed organisms but they still went out of their way to find out if it was possible and referred me to all the freshwater stores in ocala!

We enjoy this store, a lot of variety of fish, corals and supplies. The store is always clean and the staff is super friendly and helpful. I appreciate all the advice everyone shares with us there to help us along in this hobby. Leslie is wonderful and I really appreciate her advice on keeping corals. She has a beautiful display tank in the store! Great customer service and passion for the hobby here.
