They are so helpful with any aquarium need. We built a new aquarium when we moved and needed new fish, and they helped so much with what breeds are friendly and relaxed, and we also go there for plants. We're there about once a week bc we love our aquarium, and they have everything you need to choose from.

Supper friendly staff. The store is well stocked. Different size fish. Exotic fish and plants. A wide price range. The store is small and can get crowded. They can order it if they don't have it.

Always been on my bucket list to get a salt aquarium. They sold me entire setup and gave me very fair price. Even texted me later to make sure that fish were OK and gave me tips on setup. I now have a flourishing salt aquarium with a happy cowfish that greets me in the morning! Could not have done it without them!

Stopped here with my five-year-old to look around while waiting on takeout at Sabor. Friendly staff, and all kinds of interesting fish and gorgeous aquarium plants! Already promised him we could get his first fish here when he turns 6.

Great place to find healthy, beautiful, and hard to find fish. They have lots of plants available and have increased their stock of decorative drift wood. Chris and his staff are the friendliest and most knowledgeable aquarium people you'd find. I come in occasionally just to check out what they have.

Recently started a saltwater tank (my first time doing so) and the store has been fantastic and will remain my go to! Everyone is super knowledgeable and consistently checking on customers and their needs. Great fish selection and the fish all appear healthy and are reasonably priced! My goby/shrimp combo that I purchased a few weeks ago are thriving and healthy! Family ran and maintained which is a huge plus! Support Local!

We've been here several times over the past few months for help with stocking our 10, 55, & 75 gallon aquariums. We found C-MACS after numerous failed attempts at stocking schooling fish from PetSmart, Rivergate. Whenever we buy from PetSmart, either all of the fish would die, or they'd get a disease shortly after we bought them & need treatment. C-MACS is just down the road and their selection, knowledge, and fish condition are unbeatable. We've been in several times to build up the proper number of schooling fish for our lonely PetSmart survivors, and everyone is thriving and our lonely fish are the happiest we've ever seen them. They carry both freshwater and saltwater fish and supplies. We're so glad we found them, they're our go to for healthy, beautiful fish!

This place is great. They have the biggest collection of fish and plants in the area. The animals and plants look healthy and beautiful. They also have rocks and other nature elements like starfish and shrimps. The staff is very friendly and they are always arond trying to help you. Everyone there is nice and have a deeply knowledge about aquariums and how to keep them safe and happy. Prices are a little high, but I guess is because they offer a better service than other stores. I recommend this place. It's beautiful and very interesting. Kids will love it.

Bought 10 neon tetras from them a week ago for my 180 gal tropical tank. Have lost 6 so far, 1 died on the car ride home. I bought 10 neons from another store a month ago, still have all 10. Saw some dead fish in some of their tanks while I was there, should have walked out. Don’t think I’ll do business with them anymore.Edit: There is a sign at the door, that states no refunds on dead fish. Why would I call? Not being an internet gangster. Your shop sucks!

1st and foremost the place was CLEAN, the tanks were CLEAN and the fish appeared vibrantly healthy. The staff was awesome, personable and most importantly knowledgeable something you will RARELY see at the big chain stores. I had a hard time picking out what I wanted and the folks there were able to answer all of my questions. The selection of driftwood alone left me in awe as I love doing natural tanks. I walked out of there with an awesome pleco, a Siamese flying fox and 2 clams, along with some Riccia which I have never been able to find locally. I cannot wait to do my full stock on my main tanks because even though the place is small(er) the quality and variety were just incredible. Im impressed.

I love this place. It's so addicting. That have a wide variety of fish, invertabrets, and coral. They carry freshwater and saltwater. If they don't have something they will order it for you. The staff is great. They are very knowledgeable and nice.

I’m SO glad I found this little gem! I stopped by here today to pick up a betta and a mystery snail- I had some questions and the woman who helped me (I’m sorry I didn’t catch her name!) went above and beyond to help me. She even gave me a little care sheet on how to acclimate my new aquatic friends to their tank! I HIGHLY recommend this store over any other retailer simply off their knowledge and customer service (as well as many other reasons!) I will definitely be coming here for all of my aquatic needs!!

Great people and great store. Always helpful and knowledgeable. All the fish I've bought have been super healthy and I've never even seen anything looking wonky in their tanks, even on busy days. A huge selection of fish and products, which is probably the only bad thing I have to say about the store is that they need more space.

Great customer service. It's a new fish store near me and I was excited when I found out about. I walked right in and was greeted and helped. Great selection of healthy fish for good reasonable prices. I went all around Charlotte looking for a specific fish, the salvini, and I found it here.(Sal in the middle)

We stopped in after attending the aquarium expo and we were very impressed.Every tank is loaded with healthy livestock, the staff is helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. They spent a lot of time answering our questions and made us feel welcome. It’s always a wonderful surprise to discover a store of this caliber. We will definitely be back!

Absolutely loved my visit here today. I've been getting stressed going to big chain pet stores that don't take care of their fish, so I'm ecstatic to find a local fish store in the area that truly cares about what they do. Their tanks are well taken care of and not overstocked, I didn't see any dead fish in the tanks or any that looked sick. They have a huge variety for salt water and fresh water. Staff was super knowledgable and friendly. We'll definitely be back when our other tank is ready for fish, but today I was just happy to get the final (and smallest) addition to my ADF tank. Thank you!

Amazing! Staff is so friendly and knowledgeable. They take all the time in the world with my three children, very patient. I highly recommend C-MACS. It's the only place I will ever buy aquatic supplies and fish.

I love Cmacs. The fish are well taken care of and the staff obviously cares about their fish and their customers. I drive past two big box pet stores to get here. Don't go to Petco if you within 45 minutes of here!!
