This is an amazing fish store. It’s a small business that is family owned. They have a huge selection of fresh water and salt water fish and all the accessories you could possibly need for a successful fish tank! We will definitely be back for our fish needs!!!! Below is a pic of the fish we bought.

The lady there seemed pretty rude and edgy like my daughter and I annoyed her with any questions we asked by the way her responses were. Then she was getting something out for another customer and we said oh cool we can watch her get it out. She turns around and rudely says is there something I can help y'all with. I kindly said no. She then goes and tells her son to come from the back room and feed the peronas and tells us he's going to feed them we can go watch that... Of course I told my daughter come on we will watch that but her attitude was uncalled for. She has always been that way the many times over the years we have went in there.

Nice place! If you wanna learn about snails there’s a guy works there and can tell you all about them! Super helpful and knowledgeable!

I had not been to their store since they was on Eastman Rd. I have to say I am amazed at their standards of tanks and professionalism. They have one of the healthiest enviroments for fish, salt and freshwater I have seen. With all my travels I can say anywhere in the counyry.

I feel that anyone that has left a bad comment was simply because they didn't want to receive the knowledge that they were getting! I went there after a couple failed attempts, of getting a good tank going, from petsmart and pet supply stores. She offered not only great prices but priceless knowledge! She will be tending any further tank adventures and I will recommend 100% to friends!

Some of the most hateful management and workers I have ever met. Never will have my business. Learn how to use customer service if you actually want customers. Learn how to be accessible. Outrageous.

I won't lie we got good deals on the fish tanks... fish prices are steep though. The lady that works there idk if it's the owner or not but she wasn't friendly at all and rushed us even tho we spent over 200 dollars.. when we asked questions she was rude. The filters they sell are good for about 5 months and aren't good quality. I doubt I'll be back. I didn't travel over an hour to be treated like we were treated.

Went there to just check it out, a friendly employee greeted us, let us pet and hold the ferrets, explained their care, had us really wanting to get some ferrets. Went back and a lady there wouldn't let us even touch the ferrets, was rude and implied we lied about holding the ferrets because 'an employee would never let that happen'. Gave the shop another try recently when we needed aquarium stuff, still came across as rude. Will be getting aquarium supplies from a different local shop where they are always friendly and helpful, instead.

I walked in this establishment with the intentions of spending a decent amount of money getting my aquarium up and running only to be met with a disrespectful owner/employee.After being told several times that the fish tank that I have doesn’t exist and that she has been doing this for years and knows that they didn’t make the model I explained to her I had. She then proceeded to talk down to me about aquarium lights and the fact that I didn’t know much about them. To make a long story short…we spent our money elsewhere and will not be back. I added the photos of the aquarium that I was more or less told I was lying about.

Staff is nice and willing to share knowledge.All the fish I've gotten here were healthy and looked great. All the tanks look amazing. Glad this place exists.

Owner very knowledgeable about her stock, what goes together, how many depending on gallons, etc. Would much rather buy here than big box store nearby. After a week, new residents are healthy and doing fine! Thanks so much!!!

Very nice staff! Super inelegant when coming to there fish and coral! Only thing I wonder is how the return policy works if we had a fish pass?

I recently purchased 10 shrimp and 3 rare tetras from here and every one are healthy and thriving, shrimp are already breeding! Staff are friendly and knowledgeable and prices are reasonable. Everytime I have purchased fish from a big box store (like petsmart) I have lost fish, or brought ick into the aquarium. I can only assume the bad reviews are from new aquarium owners who where not happy with the truth.

These two really know their stuff. I won’t trust my saltwater tank to anyone else.

Absolutely love this store. Staff has always been knowledgeable and will tell you if the fish are not good in the same tank together or if the fish are not good starter fish. They will help you pick and choose the best fish for what you have. They have plenty to choose from and love looking at the saltwater fish they have. Prices are reasonable too. We drive almost an hour in one direction just to go to this store. Highly recommend!!!

I have been here several times over the last two years and are very happy with the place. Prices seam reasonable to me and the selection is very impressive. What I like the most is that when I have asked for suggestions for my fish the advice has been spot on and valuable. The store owner takes time with me and helps me to understand what fish do better with other fish and what sort of setting they do best in. for someone who is still learning about fish she has saved me a lot of stress.

I just wanted to say these people are amazing. The store owner has ordered me two ferrets per color request and gender and has been awesome. They are super friendly people and have really clean aquatic tanks and animal cages. I would def chose this place over pet cove because of how friendly they are. They have a great aquatic selection and fair prices for a family owned business. Support them 💕

Hands down best fish store in the area! A great selection of beautiful fish, all in wonderfully kept tanks. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable, plus they are more then willing to answer questions you may have. Overall best place for beginners to experts, and definitely worth a visit.

Went there once. Lost 4 fish in 10 days. Told me tank size didn't exist and sold me things she knew wouldn't fit in my tank. Won't be going back. The Coral Reef in Morristown is well worth the drive. As to you reply basically calling me a liar, I spent more than an hour and a good amount of money. I've read other reviews in which people complain about "being talked down to" I am an experienced aquarium owner and know how to acclimate fish to a new tank.I chose to cut my losses and not return.

Love to go in just to see the beautiful well kept tanks. Great selectionand fair prices. I found a plant and floating log for my betta, which it loves. And even got a hammock for our rat.

I wish zero or negative stars was an option to review this business. I went to this store for the first time with my family and although they seem to care about their fish, they were incredibly rude to novice aquarium owners. The staff is not friendly and will talk down to you about aquarium topics as opposed to offering quality customer sevice. We left without buying anything, will not be returning, and will be sharing our experience with others.

I bought a ferret from them this morning and I take her home right? So I set her up and I went ahead to bathe her. Anyways, she is completely infested in fleas!!!! So bad that I can’t get them off. Poor little baby has all kinds of marks where she has dug herself for quite some time. It’s so pitiful. I’ve never seen so many fleas on an animal in my life. Definitely don’t recommend getting any kind of animal from them. If they don’t treat them with the PROPER care they deserve. I literally spent 500$ on this poor baby and she was worth every penny. So happy I got her out of there.

This is probably my favorite place to go in my free time. Beautiful healthy fish and other pets staff are friendly and knowledgeable. They have a big selection of fish you can't get at other local stores, great prices. I have bought fish here several times and never had any problems. I'm happy I've never had to medicate new fish from here when I bring them home.

Best fish store in town, we started a tank this year and the owner helped us pick fish that would happily together. She and her helpers are extremely knowledgeable, and will spend a considerable amount of time with you to make sure your aquarium is spectacular.

Staff is educated in both fresh and salt water fish. Nice selection of all fish. Friendly and very helpful. Store is clean and not cluttered.

This is a hidden gem and we need to protect it at all cost! The staff were amazing, and full of knowledge. They have a very wide selection of both fresh and salt water animals that look to be well taken care of. I was awe struck when I walked into their tank area.
