It’s a very nice, knowledgeable family-owned place. I love buying here. You can tell they love the animals. Thank you guys for your business! We love our new betta baby Arthur Findragon.

They had what we needed and gave us extra bags for our feeders when we had to put them in our motorcycles

This place was absolutely disgusting and not sanitary at all.This was very sad to see the animals honestly need some help from this.

If you are a saltwater enthusiast, this place has everything you need: live Coral, fish, supplies for your tank, and most importantly a friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable staff. They also carry freshwater fish, live pets such as hedgehogs, birds and reptiles, and anything one might need to become a pet owner. Rodney and his crew have helped me through a number of crises in my own tank, and they keep me supplied with everything I need for my coral and fish to flourish.

Amazing store!!! We buy little feeder fish for my husband's Oscars as treats just about every week, on top of when we decide to buy new little swim babies to add to our different tanks. Very friendly staff! Will take time to answer any and all questions (no matter how stupid they may seem to have to ask). I bought my 2 guinea pigs from there as well a few months back, happy healthy little fur babies! On top of I usually have our 3 small children with me and as soon as we enter they are every where curious about every little creature they see and they don't mind, which is a big plus for this momma!!! Thank you fishy business for being so awesome all the way around!!!!!

Very knowledgeable and helpful. The animals are cute and look happy and well taken care of. Went in and got some fish (I have a really hard time keeping them alive more than a few days🤷🤦) so far they've all made it 2weeks!!(also was buying from PetSmart so that was probably the issue) they're thriving and I can't wait to go get more and maybe learn about saltwater tanks bc the ones they have are beautiful ❤️.

Very knowledgeable, answered all my fish questions! I told him what size tank I had and he told me how many to get and which fish are compatible together.

Dustin is super helpful and knowledgeable. All of the fish I have bought from them are doing great. Last time I was in there Dustin spent about 30min with me showing me different tank set ups and answering all my questions. Highly recommend them.

Great place to find all different kinds of fresh and salt water fish, they also have different types of reptiles. They also had ferrets and Guinea pigs. The staff is always friendly. Store also changes what it carries from time to time

They have the ability for a nice little business there but it needs more help.The fish tanks are ok but more work is needed in the areas of small animals and cleaning.The employee there was courteous and more than willing to help but they need the help.All in all, buy your fish and supplies there and maybe the owners will be able to spend $ for more help and work on the other issues.

Nothing but good things to say about Fishy Business. Owner will take the time to answer all questions. I have had great success with fish and plants purchased there! Highly recommend!

The staff were friendly and knowledgeable but the 6 tetra and 1 pleco I purchased have all died within 4 days of buying them! And might I add I spent almost $50! I feel like it was a total waste of money and time! I have tried repeatedly to call bc I live an hour away and I get no answer every time! I will never make another purchase with this place again!

As someone who has had quite a bit of experience with keeping animals I noticed a lot of issues with this pet store. First off, basically all the reptile, bird and small animal cages need extreme attention. They are very dirty and rather than the staff cleaning them regularly they want to sit at the front desk chatting it up all day. Whether they are all family or not, the animals have needs that need to be met. Another thing I noticed is that their reptiles do not have the required lighting and half the time they have no lights at all. They say its because they had just gotten them and If that's the case, they should've been working on that immediately instead of just sitting there. The substrates were a mess, the water bowls were dirty, the tanks are not being monitored with any sort of temp or humidity guages, and the lack of hides was also an issue. As much as I disliked supporting this business I had purchased a couple reptiles from this pet store to give them a better setup than what they were in. I'm not writing this to totally bash the business, it was just upsetting to see these animals in the conditions they were put under. I highly recommend that in the future these animals are better taken care of. If you're going to own a pet store, keep up with the responsibilities that come with it.

Pet shop met my expectations! I was overwhelmed by the great selection of fish. The pet shop was overall clean and I will most definitely be going back for my aquatic needs! The guy there was friendly and very knowledgeable about the fish...

I am very disappointed in this place. My parents bought me 2 platys from here. I took really good care of them. They were not too cold, the tank was clean always, there was not too much fish and they were always feed just the right amount. One died from lung issues and the other died of unknown causes. I definitely don't recommend buying fish here. Not only are they over priced here, but they are selling unhealthy fish. I recommend taking the extra time to go to PetSmart or Petco. I hope everyone reading this takes it seriously and to heart. Thank you for your time.P.S. The goldfish at PetSmart are 36 cents. They are a lot more here.

Cool fish store! They have a great selection of both fresh and saltwater fish, a lot of things you don't see in Petco/PetSmart type places. Also some random reptiles and birds. Staff was very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend checking it out!

What can I say, this place is amazing salt water experience with service second to none!

Definitely a hometown favorite!!!

I had $75 credit for an aquarium I had gave them I couldn't take to my new place along with 3 adult bearded dragons, heat rocks, food, different bowls and all they would have needed and they told me all they could do was $75 store credit.... Then get their today and refused to do anything, even a $8 fish for my children.... Not to mention their very overpriced....

Nice small town store, locally owned. The store is always different. Owner knows a lot about fish keeping. Decent prices, too. Will buy and sell used equipment.
