We had a great experience. We bought a bowfront aquarium with a stand. And some beautiful cichilds (fish) I am extremely happy with our decision to use this fish store. Thank you so much for making our fish experience the absolute best. We are first time fish owners, and they went above and beyond to help us with all the questions we had, and even printed off information for us! Highly highly recommended. We even got a cute little hand towel with their logo on it, since it was our first time there! Be sure to tell them, so you'll get one as well!

This store is amazing! My dad and I have been in twice together and it is just such a great store. Everyone is so nice and friendly and we got some great information for the fish we want to put in our tank. The guy who helped up was so nice and helpful! Absolutely recommend!!

Amazing place to go to for aquarium fish, iv grew up along side this place since I was a kid. And the employees are very knowledgeable and kinda. They have CO2 setups and refills, and knowledgeable there too. Also have a large variety of fish both saltwater and freshwater. Highly recommended place to go to.

Aquarium Haven: Where Knowledge Meets Warmth, and Harriet's Heart Shines Bright!I can't recommend this aquarium store enough! From the moment I walked in, I was blown away by their incredible knowledge of the hobby. Whether you're a seasoned enthusiast or just starting out, they have all the expertise you need to make your aquatic experience a success.The staff here is not only knowledgeable but also incredibly personable. They take the time to listen to your needs and guide you in the right direction. It's like talking to old friends who genuinely care about your interests and want to see you succeed in your aquarium endeavors.And let's talk about their selection—it's simply outstanding. They have everything you could possibly dream of for your underwater world. From exotic fish to vibrant plants and top-of-the-line equipment, they've got it all. I could spend hours browsing through their aisles, and each visit leaves me inspired to create something new and beautiful in my own tank.What sets this place apart, though, is the fact that it's family-owned. You can feel the passion and love they have for this business in every aspect of the store. It creates a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes you feel like part of the family.But there's one person who truly makes this place exceptional—Harriet. She's an absolute gem. From the first day I met her, she reminded me of my beloved grandmother, who passed away recently. Harriet has a way of making you feel right at home, and her genuine care and warmth brighten every visit. Her personal touch and attention to detail have made a world of difference in my aquarium journey.Every time I come back to this store, it's like returning to a place filled with fond memories and new possibilities. And it wouldn't be the same without Harriet's presence. She's the heart and soul of this place, and her kindness has left a lasting impact on me.In summary, if you're looking for a place with exceptional knowledge, a personable and friendly staff, a vast selection of products, and a family-owned charm, this aquarium store is the perfect destination. But the reason I keep coming back time and again is Harriet. She's the reason this store feels like a second home to me, and her warm hospitality makes every visit unforgettable. Don't miss out on this amazing experience!

The Aquarium of Knoxville is hands down the best fish/supply store in the East region of Tennessee. The staff like always are friendly and knowledgeable. The owner as well is very friendly and helpful. Not too recently I purchased a female Bamboo Catshark. May I say, I am very pleased with my purchase. This is perhaps my favorite fish I have ever owned and taken care of. The staff were understanding and helpful when it came to setting up aquarium for a shark. My final remark is that she eats like a pig and is very interesting to watch swimming. I will continue to do future business with this establishment and spread the message that it is a wonderful store. Thanks

We have only done fresh water, but this is our go to store in Knoxville. They always try to do their best and want their fish (and shrimp and snails and plants) to do well. We started just before covid and our glofish have since moved on and we are back for round 2. All the usual drawbacks to being local, but I also consider that to be a feature here in Knoxville. Saturdays can also be quite busy.

This could be a really nice store, but unfortunately I can't rate it high because the past three times I've been I've had a bad experience with the employees. They're dismissive and consistently give me inaccurate information about their stock, to the point where it feels like they just don't want to deal with me because I'm not making a large purchase.

My three year old loves to come here as he is fish obsessed. We took him to the Georgia Aquarium and he has talked about it nonstop for 6 months. Visiting the local supply shops quinches his appetite for a few days! This store is so clean and well stocked. If you're looking for fresh or salt water supplies or fish this really looks like the place to go.

Called and asked a very simple question about what they have in stock. The lady was very rude and didn’t want to check. I explained that I live over and hour away. She eventually checked, told me and hung up on me. Don’t go or call here.

Hands down the best place for fish and fish supplies! Very friendly! Very helpful! Fish are super healthy! I've been going here for 4 years now and I love it! I travel almost 2 hours to come here. They have everything you need from fish to medicine. Highly recommend this place!!

The quality of the fish is good. The problem is the prices. The fish are overpriced compared to other stores.

Your staff is rude and do not engage with customers even if they talk to them first. My friend and I came in the other day because I needed new fish for my set up. My guppies were second generation and I needed new fins in the water. I also wanted some plants and 2 heaters. But we were completely ignored by your people even though we spoke to them first. The lady feeding the fish my friend spoke to her and she said nothing back. I said something to her also and nothing. I also said something to a guy working there and again nothing. We just went to a regular pet store and spent my money there.

Friendly staff and a great selection of fish and plants. The only reason I docked a star was for the bladder snails that came with the plants. I'm not really upset about it though. It's just a part of the hobby and I kind of expected it to happen.

I purchased a water pump 8 months ago from Aquarium. The pump stopped working and I was concerned about having to return it, because the only dealings I had in the past with them was when I originally purchased the pump.I could not be more pleased with the customer service! After checking out the pump they replaced it with a new one. Everyone was so polite and helpful. The lady (Harriette) working the front register was so sweet and funny. She made my day!Thank you Aquarium staff for making this a very pleasant experience. You are definitely a 5 star business!!

It's great. I just have one problem. The hex tanks at the back of the fish room keep taking my money😉! That's where they keep the oddballs. Today it was a zebra knife fish. Last time it was an arrowhead puffer. They really need to hide those two tanks from me!

Nice store, with a friendly and knowledgable staff.They have a GREAT selection of fish- Usually. The last few times I've been in I've been a little disappointed in the saltwater selection. The freshwater section is great- they have a lot of fish you won't see anywhere else, and the BEST selection of nano fish in the area. All the fish look good, and healthy. I've always done well with what I've bought there.Nice selection of dry goods, too, and at decent prices.

We've been loyal customers to this store for years and years. Even after moving out of the area we haven't found a single store that compares to the professionalism, extensive knowledge, and excellent customer service. I will continue to order all my livestock and supplies through this store regardless of the longer drive to pick up said items. 10/10 Accept no substitute!

Bought 4 fish from them. Followed the directions of their staff and 2 friends who have separately had big aquariums and many fish for years. Not only did all the fish die but they also spread some disease to my other fish. Literally killed off my whole tank in less than a week. Wouldn’t recommend this place.Editing to add: I had my other fish (bought elsewhere) for over a year before this happened.

I have not been in there in a while do to the drive and I regret not coming sooner. Last time I was there, had a great time and honestly never seen a business ran so good before. And even today the only bad thing i can even say is the drive to get there and the Karen's you see in the reviews. lol. The wait isn't to bad, the prices are fair, The fish I bought are in good quality, the staff is very friendly, even seen the owner a few times. If I didn't already work at Walmart, I'd love to get a job there. They seem to really care about there business unlike my store. They seem to have the best management and team and a owner who cares about his business. 10 out of 10 would recommend shopping there for your supplies and fish.

Great place to get fish and pond plants. The folks here were incredibly knowledgeable, helpful and accommodating. It is a little hard to find, because it is up a hill behind a hotel, but worth the drive. They seem to have everything you could possibly need for aquariums, terrariums and ponds.
