The staff here are amazing! Every single staff member is so helpful and knowledgeable. They truly care about their fish and live plants. As a new betta fish owner who’s learning as I go and expanding my fish’s tank, they always go over and beyond giving me advice and quality items. 10/10!

Never seen them so busy as I never go Saturdays. Was concerned post Capt. Duckweed but bought fish 2 Weeks ago from male employee and he asked the right questions to make sure we knew how to care for intermediate level fish, and today (sorry no name, once again not new manager but employee) had a stack of 7 buying customers getting multiple fish, plants or corals and she answered questions to all while speedily getting stock to people, was impressed. People kept coming, but we got our stuff. (And maybe last 2 pea puffers, thanks dude who either came in right before or after us who also wanted them, I hope she found more as my kid went to car not wanting to show upset not getting what waited for but also not wanting to put someone else out and cut if we were after... not clear.) So the other customers are as friendly as the employees. Who maintain the 5 star rating (and Great quarantine policy.)

Really great fish place, this is definitely where I'm going from now on for more fish and any trouble shooting. They're really knowledgeable and take care of all their animals very well

Wow, what an amazing experience. So much diversity condensed into a small foot print. Well organized, super healthy and active aquariums animals. The fish, corals and plans are clearly well cared for. I noticed water change dates on the display tanks.

Fantastic selection of fresh water and salt water fish! The Java wood they sell is an incredible price and was perfect for our blue tongue skink enclosure! There was one worker and she was great. We were greeted with a smile and she was extremely helpful with all questions we had. I didn't know this place existed until last week and I am so happy google maps finally suggested it when I was looking up fish stores. We will definitely go back!

I’m a new fish keeper and after going to the chain pet stores 3 or 4 times and getting conflicting and altogether incorrect information, I discovered Easy Aquariums!!! Ryan was incredibly friendly, kind, patient and super knowledgeable. I won’t go anywhere else now!! They clearly know fish inside and out and take great care of their creatures. I’d give them 10 stars if Google would allow it!

One of the best aquatics stores I've been in. Staff is extremely knowledgeable and they are clearly excited about fish keeping. They take excellent care of their livestock and their through quarantine procedures put a lot of my concerns at rest when introducing new fish to my existing tank.They have a huge selection of freshwater plants and hardscape materials (stone, driftwood). I also love that some of their tanks have natural tannins.If I could give them 6 stars I would! Keep up the great work!

Best aquarium store I have ever been in!!! They even take great care of the large fish which is something I don't see often. The salt water section and the coal looked gorgeous. They even have a sign on the goldfish tank saying 30 gallon minimum. Overall I'm super impressed with this store and can't wait to go back. Definitely a must visit if you're in the area!

Very knowledgeable staff with excellent products and a wide array of livestock. The aquariums are incredibly well maintained and I've never been so impressed.The staff was so kind and willing to answer the simplest of questions. They also offered to put in special orders for me and even have quarantine timelines in place to ensure that livestock purchased has the best possible chance of thriving.I will continue to be a frequent customer here!

This is so so very great. All of the fish are well taken care of, and have proper setups. The people who work there are polite and knowledgeable. Many different types of fish, some rarer than others. Everything is priced well

My husband and I went in for the first time with our 5 and 6 year olds. The sales associate could not have been nicer! My kids had questions about the larger fish and the tanks and he gave us a sweet demonstration and a little math quiz to show how heavy a bag of water would be to carry home one of the larger fish. Then he was incredibly patient while my kids chose the platys they wanted. The store is incredibly clean. Small but inviting. And the staff was very knowledgeable. We will definitely be back! Thank you!

Love this place! They offer different variety of fish types that you don't find in the big pet stores, and take such great care of all their fish like no other. Very knowledgeable staff every time we've been in and they've always have the best recommendations on various questions how we care for our aquariums.

Came here the day after the grand opening to have a look around. Vibe was great, they have a great selection of freshwater fish. Very competitive pricing. Lots of natural decoration options and high quality chemicals and food. Staff was helpful and kind, very informative.Bonus, you can grab a sub from honey ham store after you finish fish shopping!

My family went Into here cause for years we have been thinking of a Aquarium for our house. We went in with very little knowledge of what was needed. My better half found a few fish she loved especially the figure 8 puffer. We were helped by a young man named Josh who helped us answered all of our questions we had. Even the ones from our 11 year old son. We left the store after about 30 minutes of talking to Josh with knowledge we didn't have before. We are comfortable with what we learned and excited to start our aquarium adventures. Josh deserves a raise and should be working at an aquarium doing tours with his knowledge

I finally made it for my first time to the new shop and I have to say I am very impressed. They have an incredible selection of freshwater fish and invertebrates, saltwater section appeared to be well on its way. Staff is very knowledgeable and eager to work woth you as well as place special orders which is awesome and hard to come by. This will be the only store I shop at now for all my aquarium needs.

they have one of the best selection of happy and healthy fish in New England! All of their fish are quarantined for 2 to 4 weeks before they go up for sale, and the staff is very knowledgeable and eager to answer any questions one may have.")

Love their Westbrook store, but the Portsmouth one was very underwhelming. Way too small of a space for a fish store. Many of the relatively few tanks they had were so high you couldn't even see what was in them.That all being said selection was decent for the amount of space they are actually using.

Went there for the first time today. A very nice selection of beautiful fish and the 2 oscars there were gorgeous. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Looking forward to going again as it will be my new go to aquarium store.

I’ve been in to the store every week since it opened, and every time I find something new my fishies need! I’m so excited to have a place close by that focuses on aquatic pets - and has things like live food and natural decor that normal pet stores just don’t. Every time I’m in, the staff is super friendly and helpful - and also very knowledgable. I love being able to talk tanks with people who know their stuff! It’s a must visit!!

Everyone we talked to was extremely knowledgeable and very nice! We are so happy they are close by because they have great quality and selection! Every time we come in the staff is very helpful. Would suggest going here if you're looking for a quality aquarium store.

Very cool store. Hardscape by the pound (rocks and wood) nice healthy plants, awesome selection of not commonky seen fish, live food and quality hikari frozen foods, knowledgable and friendly staff. Repashy!!! Several formulas. Good chemicals, good supply of maintenance equipment and filter media. The cutest stuffed animals in the world.I've been in several times and warmly welcomed. I would love to know what that other guy could have possibly considered extremely rude to leave a one star review.
