If you are just starting out with fish, do not come here or ask what to do. I got 3 different sets of instructions from 3 different people, resulting in 2 goldfish dying. Now on, my third, and with the help of youtube (which gave me a completely different set of guidelines), I hope it stays alive longer.That tidbit aside, they have a variety of aquatic life, supplies, and accessories. This place is definitely for people who know what they are doing with their aquarium and fish. It's worth it to stop by just to look at all the beautiful fish they have.I was satisfied with the aquarium and supplies I got there.Bottom line, make sure you know your stuff before coming here.

The best aquarium store for low price and healthy fish. I've never had an issue with anything I've bought here. They have a wide selection of fish and even have a bunch of plants and tissue cultures cups you can't get anywhere else in Brooklyn.

They have very unique fishes! I have never seen any of these fishes in any other aquarium! This store is a bit pricey though! I most of them cost 100-400 dollars! They do, however, have inexpensive foshes as well! I got about 8 fishes for around 25 dollars including the food!

They have a wide range of fish and the price are fairly good compare to the pet store where I live. I can't wait to visit this place again!----------------I came again and bought few fish for my tank. Everything was great and I was satisfied with the price. However, the 8 Neon Tetra I bought were all dead two day later. My tank was very healthy as all my other fish are still alive. I then took them out and look close to them and found most of their tails was incomplete and some white spots on them. I like them so much but sadly they are all sick.. I wish the store can take care of them more than what is now.

Great store! Most fish are healthy and staff is very friendly especially the manager who always helps me find fish. They care about getting you the best fish and helping you keep them. I have never been up sold or misinformed at this store. Buy at your own risk though as some fish appear sick or unhealthy such as some of the neon tetras that have NTD. I had an ich outbreak from a fish here that was easily treated. I’m rating so high though because this is something I see at all stores. This store has the best looking fish and prices compared to others in the NYC area. Highly recommend for all aquarium needs

My go-to place for my aquascape needs. They have everything you need to start your aquascape. They have a very nice selection of live plants and tissue cultures from ADA. There's also a ton of different rocks and stones in bins to choose from. And they have the popular substrates in stock as well.Almost everything in my 20 gallon long tank can be found in this store, including the endlers. CaribSea Eco-complete, dragon stone, Monte Carlo and Japanese Dwarf Pennywort.

I go there to get my fish and they have great quality fish with reasonable prices but this time the fish I got had Ich. I’m trying to treat them but I don’t know if they will last.

The only asian aquarium store in nyc that actually cares about the fish animals and customers needs. Please don’t ever buy an aquarium or fish, but if you rescue and want to have a reliable, knowledgeable staff who will know medications and more this is the spot. There is also WetPetVet (fish vet) in nyc.

ZERO STARS! The customer service at this store is an absolute joke. I bought a fish tank and filters ($153.00) as a gift for a family member, the family member asked me to return it as they wanted a different size/type of fish tank. I called the store to ask if they would accept the return and refund. They said they would accept it as long as the tank had not been used. As a result, I gave another gift to my family member. I come back to the store a couple of days later with the tank and filters untouched, still in the box, and sealed as the store had given it to me. The employee told me they could only give me store credit for the items. I explained that I had called and someone had told me differently, but they did not care. They also did not care that I do not own fish and will not be owning fish in the future. Completely refused to come up with another arrangement. So now I’m out of $153.00, that I will never get back, and nobody will use the flimsy store credit receipt they gave me, which doesn’t even have the name of the store listed on it. Also, the only signs in the store say that they don’t accept returns of LIVE ANIMALS, not equipment. Don’t waste your time on this store.

Big fan of the service at this store. The employees are kind and thorough, manager present or not. They'll show you the fish they picked before bagging or make a strong effort to catch exactly what you want. I had a friendly convo with an employee once right after opening. Appreciate that kindness and I know that can't be replicated every single day for every person but it's still worth noting.Be aware that this location doesn't have a livestock guarantee. They don't hide this so as long as they're upfront, I'm willing to give it a go. Some of my critters have passed but most have lived. Pricing is great for what I purchased so it's hard to avoid the temptation. They have some relatively uncommon fish too.Another plus for planted aquarium people: they offer co2 refills at the time of my visit. Pricing is better than my closest welding place and you avoid that rigamarole of dropping off your tank outside and wait for it across the street, etc (Anyone that has refilled co2 at a welding supply or comparable place will understand).Edit: Whenever I swing by to pick up scaping supplies, I'm always offered a tray to hold my rocks and wood. I noticed newer varieties of hardscape as well as ADA tissue cultures. I have yet to see that at any other location in NYC yet.

This place is a Gem in the neighborhood, has a massive variety of fish and other creatures, tanks are very clean and animals are healthy. The people that work there are helpful and easy to get ahold of.... I came after they were highly recommended by a professional in the industry who deals with them regularly and was not disappointed. Prices are good and there is just a massive variety of everything from supplies to animals.

I've been to this shop 3 times. I find the prices to be reasonable, nice variety of fish and ok variety with the plants. One of the few places that carry Co2 equipment. I gave them 4 stars and not 5 because the last time I was there I seen at least 4 separate tanks with fish that had velvet that was clearly visible. But overall a nice shop to check out.

I wish I could give this place a nicer rating, and it’s definitely also my inexperience that caused this. But I bought 3 types of live plants from here. 2 from inside an inhabited tank, the other in a container. Within a few days of just straight away placing the plants inside the tank my healthy betta came down with ick, and I’m assuming associated fin rot? Ick for sure was present though. I was able to treat the tank entirely. I just wish the plants would have been kept in healthier conditions from the start as I was unaware of the possible issues that came with not quarantining your plants (or even that it was necessary). Thankfully my fish is healing ❤️‍ and the plants are now thriving! Hope this helps someone avoid the mistakes I made. Also the staff was very friendly and courteous, no issues there! Pricing was also reasonable.
