Felix has been taking care of our fish tank for quite sometime now. He has so much knowledge in what he does. When he comes to clean up the tank he will make sure to give us an update on how the fishes are doing. If the plants are growing or not. If he sees anything he will make sure to tell you what to do to fix that. He is also so good at what he does. I’m so glad we found him and wouldn’t trust anyone else with our beautiful tank.

I am so grateful I found Felix when I was failed by my local aquarium store. Felix is incredibly knowledgeable on all things fish and saved my aquarium from an out of control algae problem. I’ve learned so much on keeping a healthy and thriving community tank from our one appointment and plan to continue to use Best Aquarium to keep my tank healthy. Felix is responsive and answers my little questions that come up from time to time without hesitation. He is a master of his craft and passionate about all things with gills. :)

I just had 3 of my tanks serviced from this WONDERFUL team! They were so kind, patient, informational and knowledgeable. Through all the years I’ve had a tank and the research that I’ve done, the information they gave me was nothing compared to what I researched on my own. I’m also big on vibes and their energy was A+. I would HIGHLY recommend their services to anyone that really cares about their fish and maintaining them for longevity <3

Felix is beyond incredible!! He truly knows his stuff!! We recently got a Betta fish as a first pet for our son and wanted to be sure we were caring for him correctly. Felix answered all of our questions with patience and expertise. He even gave us his cell phone number to text him if we had any issues or concerns. I truly cannot thank him enough. He loves what he does and it shows. Run, don't walk to Felix. You will not be disappointed!

My overall experience with Felix was absolutely phenomenal! He came in and jumped into action and got to work. Not only did he clean my tank, he educated me on the types of fish that would work well for me and what I want. He had great suggestions and was very polite. Felix’s energy was the best he was passionate about his craft and super engaging with my self and everyone else in the household. Not only will I continue using his service I will be recommending his service to everyone I know!

The whole experience was amazingly very professional. Felix provided updates on his ETA so I knew exactly when he would arrive and he was very punctual as well. He was very knowledgeable about fish & aquarium care and even showed me how to carefully clean the tank myself, something no other tank cleaner ever did, which was priceless. His love for the environment and the ecosystem was evident in how he talked and his actions as he expressed to me how he volunteers at local schools and church to give back to his community. God bless this man.

Best Aquarium Services NYC is nothing short of AMAZING!!! Felix set up a stunning fish tank for our home. My husband and I were so impressed with his level of knowledge, his professionalism and excellent customer service. He answered all of our questions, educated us about how our tank systems (filters/heaters/timers) work, and taught us how to care for our new little fish friends. The fact that he will be servicing our tank gives us added peace of mind! Our kids are so happy and I am thrilled to have a beautiful relaxing “Zen Piece” to look at while unwinding after a long day :) Thank you so much Felix!! GREAT JOB!!!!

Felix is a talented professional. He has been servicing our 3 fish tanks for the last 5 years and always does an outstanding job. He really is passionate about aquatic animals and is always available with helpful suggestions and ideas. We couldn’t keep our aquariums going without him.

Felix was so personable and Knowledgable. I was hesitant to call someone because I felt my tank was not really big and should have been fairly easy to care for but they are harder than you think! Felix did not make me feel silly at all. He gave me so much good advice, told me exactly what equipment to buy to keep my tank clear and make water changes easy. He really has a passion for this line of work and it shows. I will definitely be calling him in the future !

Felix was an amazing resource! During the pandemic we decided to get fish for our kids, and Felix walked us through the entire process every step of the way, taking into consideration all of our concerns (including not wanting to go into stores because of Covid). He sent specific listings, helped evaluate options, and answered my kids' many questions. He is one of the most knowledgeable experts in his field - I kind of wish we were in market for more aquariums so we could work with him again! I cannot recommend him highly enough.

My first experience with Felix was when literally saved our fish's life over the phone free of charge without any solicitation for future work. When I did hire him to service our tank and give us a 101 lesson on proper care, I found him to be extremely knowledgeable, courteous, and reliable. I will call Felix from now on for any of our tank needs!

Felix is the man!! He set up my reef aquarium from scratch and it’s looking beautiful. He is knowledgeable and hard working. Even tho he comes to do service on my tank, he always answers my texts and my calls when I have an answer about my tank. I was afraid to start my first fish tank especially being a saltwater tank but he has made the experience very fun and enjoyable. Oh, and he always leaves everything supper clean when he’s done. He is not a messy worker by no means.

Felix is an extremely knowledgable and efficient professional! We have a small fish tank that we were unsure how to clean. He came and showed us everything, step by step, and taught the homeowner's young son exactly how to do everything on his own. In addition to teaching us how to do the cleaning, he explained the reasoning and the science behind everything so we knew not just how to do it but why to do it that way. He even told us what other fish would go good with our current fish & set up, and suggested specific food brands. He was very communicative and answered our questions that came up via text even after the appointment. We would definitely go back to him for any fish needs, and would recommend him to anyone looking for someone in this area!

Felix is amazing!!! Before I even purchased my tank, I became in contact with Felix because I had a ton of questions as a newbie. He helped me every step of the way, and I wasn’t even a paying customer just yet. His passion for saltwater aquariums is infectious, which has caused me to fall in love with the hobby even more. All thanks to Felix!

Felix is now deservedly well-known throughout the New York City metro area for his expertise in setting up, servicing, diagnosing and resolving problems with both saltwater and tropical (freshwater) tanks. The New York Times recently profiled Felix in a major feature story on high-quality aquarium doctors for both businesses and residences. Based on my personal experience with having Felix set up a 34-gallon GloFish tank, he can handle everything from a 10 gallon tank to 450 gallons and above, all while educating you on how to prevent future issues and problems. His educational focus and service orientation are what really set him apart, and his $275 minimum house call charge is a bargain for the value you receive in return.

My name is Gibson Kinloch.I just spent 35 minutes on the phone with the owner of Best Aquarium, Felix.Not only was he super informative, but he was patient and did not try and "sell" me on buying anything for my current set up. He provide solutions to create the best environment possible for my fish.With his knowledge, attention to detail and passion for fish, I will only be using Best Aquarium Service, Inc for all my fish needs going forward. Thanks Felix!

Top quality personalized service. I called with general questions about my new fish, and the owner himself, Felix, listened to even my most basic questions and gave thorough answers and explanations. I’m very grateful. My fish is already happier. Best Aquarium Service NYC are genuine professional experts. 5 stars, highly recommend.

HUGE thank you to Best Aquarium Services NYC Inc. for their help! I called as a last resort to save my beautiful Betta. He has progressively worsening fin rot that I had been treating for months, and absolutely nothing was working. When I called I spoke to the owner, Felix, who very patiently listened to my problems, and I explained everything, he gave me detailed instructions on how to proceed. Almost two weeks later and my pretty boy is doing so much better! His fins are regrowing and his blue coloring is coming back super quickly. He has a ways to go before he’s back to where he started, but without the help of this company my fish would have died being less than a year old. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

I called this service by chance looking for help with our goldfish that where experiencing health issues. Felix sat on the phone with me free of charge and listened to my concerns and explained everything I was doing wrong and how to fix it. I honestly couldn’t be more appreciative of his patience and willingness to help me with this problem!!! Definitely give him a call if you have any issues with your aquarium!! He is not the type of guy that is going to try and sell you a bunch of products instead he explains the science of proper water care and how to achieve the proper environment for you fish. Highly recommended!
