This place is heaven on Earth. They have all you need to build an incredible fish tank. Shout out to Sam for holding it down with keeping happy and healthy fish and aquatic plants.

My very selective senior dog has been picky and sometimes not eating the food he has always loved. I am glad I found Petqua. My dog loves the snacks and treats I purchase from there, and he loves the new dog food I purchased there which you see in the picture. He has more energy, and his bowel movements are much better. The ingredients in this dog food are healthy.

Pet Aqua is a great place to buy a goldfish or resources for a fish. Upstairs, there is a wide array of things like tanks and decorations, (as well as a parrot that can stay stuff). Down stairs there is a tourist with is named George from my memory and he is a legend. Anyway, there are lovebirds downs status and an interesting array of fish. Recommended!

i went back in december a little before closing time for the first time & i was really happy with the experience. i had a nice women help me test the water for free, i was buying fish for my 29 gal that i had just finished cycling ☺️ she escorted me downstairs with the tanks are. Even tho i supposedly went the day before they were going to add more stock they had a really nice selection compared to petco. all of the fish looked healthy, there wasn't any duckweed i saw some reviews mention that but i only say it in 2 or 3 tanks top, free of ick, not to mentioned they had a really nice selection of angelfish & guppies, had this nice little pea puffer too. i bought a chinese algae eater & a shoal of zebras danios for a good price & im soo happy bc they get along with my rosey barbs & tetras just fine the danios grew nicely. Im definitely going back to get a centrepiece for my tank. 🙂

The owner and staff are super nice and very helpful! I always stop by to get crickets for my leopard gecko and their large crickets are genuinely large lol. I used to go to the Petsmart a couple blocks down but I wasnt a fan of their location. The prices are the same too. Also recommend going downstairs, they have very cool animals and a large turtle that roams around lol! If you have pets i recommend this place!

i LOVE this pet shop a lot, especially for feeders for my chameleon. The owners are super nice and helpful and aren’t pushy when it comes to taking your time and shopping. I was also greeted by a talking parakeet that kept saying “hello”. The also have a downstairs section with fish, reptiles, HUGE dubia roaches, hamsters, guinea bigs, doves, turtles and you’ll be greeted by a ginormous 20 year old tortoise. The only reason i’m giving it 4 stars is because in one of the hamster tanks, there was no water in the water container and there were small roaches all over it. it made me feel bad for the hamster and also stressed me out quite a bit. nonetheless, this is a great store with great prices. oh! and they also offer onboarding for reptiles (everything included for $10 a day).Things purchased:10 dubia roaches (66¢ each)Reptile calcium with and without vitamin D3Reptile multivitaminSmall hornworms

BEWARE: Petqua has a no refund policy which is not posted anywhere in the store except on the tiny white notice at the bottom of the register. You don't know there will be no refund until after you've bought your merchandise.Dishonest by omission and active commission (lying!)

The supplies I purchase are of very good quality. The beautiful birds are a breath of fresh air and the parrot actually said, Hi to me.

Awesome local pet supply store with friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable staff. Delivery is also quick and efficient. If they don't have what you need in stock, they are always happy to order and deliver it. Great small business.

The fish section is kept in horrible condition. The tanks are full of algae and a lot of dead fish. I understand that they are a small business but doesn’t mean that they can neglect the fish tanks in basement. The staff are friendly but never wear masks which makes me feel uneasy to go inside the store or even ask them questions. Probably for dog and cat sections, they are doing better because I see they have well stocked shelves, that’s why I give them 2 stars.

I was looking for a local pet store and found this special place. Not only do they have a great selection, but the staff and owners are so nice. Sam set me up and his colleague gave my sweet lab a treat on our way out. A new loyal customer!

Petqua is an uptown gem! The store carries a wide variety of pet supplies and also offers temporary boarding for small exotic pets. Sam and the rest of the staff are friendly and approachable, but George the store tortoise (storetoise?) is my favorite employee.

My go-to local pet supply store. The staff are friendly and quick to try and help. Decent array of products but while they may carry a specific item their selection within that item may be limited (i.e. one tick remover, or one kind of nail clippers). Store was clean and tidy (though it may not look it since pretty products all over the walls is hard to make look tidy).

They are considered essential and still open during PAUSE! Support local businesses if you can.

Inconsistent inventory and inconsistent pricing one week feeders 28 a box of 1000next week 38 the next week back to 28, tell you to come get box of feeders on shipping day ( we’d) to try not to get you to buy inventory boost prices so they can sell part out for more, or staff call personal dibs. Improper pet housing. Inadequate lighting, and some species that should be housed alone will have 3 or more in enclosure like leopards and gargoyles geckos. Bare minimum needs are met. If that I won’t get started on the fish ! But the bettas suffering. Ide shop around first I’ve given them almost a year of business with my first couple transactions Being several hundred, hoping the next week would be better experience then I the last, hoping they see the value in the returning customer, but each time I’m proven they can careless of my business with they way the conversations go. So this is the last week I’ll return. The convinces of working two train stops away was the main drive to further business but honestly it’s worth my time to go out my way from now on.

This is a cute little private business! Several birds and a large tortoise roam the store to add to its charm. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and I was able to find what I needed. Their aquarium livestock downstairs is also unusual and worth taking a look at. Membership rewards are offered here.

This is a wonderful pet store that is well-stocked. I discovered this place recently and will be going to them for all my freshwater fish needs. They also sell seed by the pound for very reasonable prices, which is something you would be hard pressed to find in the area. I bought some guppies and they were leagues ahead in terms of health and energy than any of the fish I've purchased at the chains in the area.

Seriously, the best shop for my fish related supplies! Generously stocked, managed by two very helpful guys. I get personal attention, advice, and service. Minimum time waste, unlike the large chain shops, where I run around looking for people to help me, then the long queues. Is right by the 2, 3 line in midtown Manhattan, very convenient.

We started keeping fish during quarantine.Been to Petqua several times since.Their fish all look very healthy and robust, in all of our trips I did not find any ich or dead fish in ANY of their tanks.We purchased 8 neon tetras. Over a span of the week 3 died, but that could have been either the nature of them or also me not acclimating that batch properly. I floated them.A few weeks later, we got 4 Cardinal tetras (we had gotten some Cardinals from another store previously)All 4, after drip acclimation are still with us and seem to be doing well.Only negative thing about their fish is that the water comes with duck weed. Gah!The staff is really friendly and knowledgeable. They answered ALL my questions. And a lot of the questions I asked, I knew the answers to, just wanted to see if they would sell me fish or actually give me good advice.They do seem to look out for health and best interest of the fish!Hooray!We also love the animals in the store :)

My favorite place to buy fish. Have never had one die on me straight after I bought them and they have a great selection. Unfortunately they do run low on stock sometimes.

Petqua is a pillar of the community. Where would we be without them? I cannot imagine a better neighborhood pet store. They always have what I need, and if they don’t, they will order it. Simply the best.

Local pet food store run by two sweet guys who strive to please fussy, over-informed UWSiders. Packed shelves top to bottom in a typical narrow storefront space catering to a wide range of fauna; if you don't see it, ask. They happily fulfill special requests. Prices are a bit higher than big online suppliers. The tradeoff is friendly, patient service and guidance. P.S. Say hi to the parrot in back.

Definitely a good place to shop for feeders for fish and mice. Despite being a small size place, there is a downstairs level and the feeders are in good price range for someone like me that doesn't want to spend expensive absurd amounts of dollars for just a couple of mice and goldfish feeders. Definitely coming back again.

After 4 years of purchasing bones for my dog every week, we received Teo batches of bones where the marrow was soft and squishy. When I mentioned this to the owners, they pointed the finger back at me as the only one who experienced this problem. After spending close to $1000 a year on bones for several years, they lost a customer. And now I’m wondering last time the health department visited that store. After being a local customer who believes in supporting local businesses, I now would tell people to avoid Petqua!

I actually feel bad writing this because the people who work there are super nice and exceptional. But the fish in the basement look horrible and in pain. There was one fishtank that had two bonded fish and you could just tell one was in horrible pain and it's bonded fish would swim to me watching the aquarium then swim back to the dying fish and touch the fish and stare at me, I am not a fish whisperer but one could tell he was super sad that the other dish was dying, all the otheraother fish just looked weary depressed I guess it's from being in such a dark and depressive basement and having dead fish floating and or on the base of each aquariums. I left that place wanting to call animal control. Super knowledgeable personel and friendly but those fish just brakes your heart. And also a bit too expensive. I hope review helps more as a critique for the place to have more attention to those fish rather than taken it the wrong way. That fish swimming back and forth and around it's partner left such an impression.

This is my neighborhood store. Personalized service like theirs you can't get anywhere in any pet mart. Sam and Ed, the owners are friendly and helpful. They knew the kind of dog food I take already the 2nd time I entered and were glad to deliver it to my home.I made a point to shop just there. This kind of personalized local stores is rare and we need to make sure they thrive and continue servicing us.
