Very cool place to go. Lots of fish and supplies for aquariums. My son only has a gold fish and he got what he needed but if you needed something more exotic it would probably be here. They have all kinds of accessories for aquariums.They have lots to look at and their aquarium is amazing, almost like a mini fish zoo. They have a $5 admission fee but if you buy something you do not have to pay the fee.

Super helpful staff that helped us get plants for our betta fish tank. Before purchasing our first fish it was nice to be able to visit a few times, see all the incredible fish, and get an idea on what we wanted before making any big decisions. When we did purchase, Sanctuary Aquatics was so helpful with the plants! Now Swayze, our Betta, is happily enjoying live plants in his tank.

This aquarium and fish store is an absolute gem! Their expansive selection of coral, fish, and invertebrates is unparalleled, catering to both novice and seasoned enthusiasts. The staff and owner exude warmth and knowledge, always eager to assist and share their expertise. Walking through the store feels like diving into a vibrant underwater world, with large, impeccably maintained saltwater tanks showcasing stunning marine life. Whether you're a hobbyist seeking a rare species or simply looking to enhance your aquatic haven, this store promises an unforgettable experience every time.

Feels like half store, half aquarium! Front has some neat fish and even a frog, as well as aquarium and marine life care items that look hard to find or specialized. In the back is a massive aquarium with a walk-on pier?! The fish in the back seem to have plenty of room to swim so they must maintain the place well. Recommend for aquatic pet lovers or a casual visit!

Really cute shop! Enjoyed our experience during our visit. They have daily feeding at 4PM which pretty neat and loved by the little ones. Definitely recommending this place. Customer service was also welcoming and friendly. Keep up the great work! ❤️

Took the kids to experience fish an aquarium and they had a very large variety of fresh and salt water fish to see. The two employees working were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Answered all of our questions and were incredibly great with our 3 wild boys who ended up getting to feed the fish at their meal time! The boys are 5,5, and 8. They had such a great time there.

Pretty cool experience... if I were looking to set up a tank or add to an existing, I would DEFINITELY come here. Took my grandson as a kind of "field trip", spent over an hour and were very impressed. EXCELLENT variety of fish, aquatic creatures and plants. The large "pond" is appx 10,000 gallons!

What a fantastic little adventure on a rainy day! I wish I would have gotten her name, but the employee that showed us around was super nice and even let us feed the fish in the big lagoon some seaweed snacks! Our 2 year old had a great time! The little horned cow fish was by far our favorite fish in the whole store!

Very awesome place with knowledgeable staff and owner. You do have to pay an admission fee if you don't plan on buying things. It's wonky but understandable. Tons well kept plants and animals for ALL your aquarium needs. Loved the esthetic

I have been in the hobby now over eight months. Sanctuary has been so helpful from the start. All the people are helpful and friendly. I can call and they are more than willing to give me a hand. Live stock I has been awesome. Even gave me a tour of their quarantine area! I would recommend them and have to anyone that asks.Thank you Sanctuary Aquatics!!

One of the premiere fish stores in the state, possibly the Midwest. Amazing 10,000 gallon saltwater lagoon display. Many fish can be purchased pre-quarantined which is a huge plus.

I'm not one to leave reviews, but this place deserves it! It's so clean, well stocked, great selection, with a wonderful staff! Two staff members helped us during our first visit to this store today and they were both incredibly friendly and helpful! This is by far the cleanest and most well maintained aquarium store I have ever been in. You have made a customer for life! Bravo 👏👏👏

The store is absolutely laid out beautifully the staff is very friendly and very helpful, I do believe the prices are a little High especially when you look in the tank and see a lot of dead fish in the tanks, And the majority of the tags they had up on the fish tanks did not have those fish in the tanks, And some fish tanks had fish and other aquatic animals in them without a tag telling you the price and I also don't agree with putting plants and fish around a store that are not available for purchase. Not sure if I will come back to the store the quality is not worth the price On their freshwater, But for their saltwater it is an extremely amazing store for their corals.

All in all a pretty decent fish store, especially for marine enthusiasts. The big lagoon is absolutely beautiful and super impressive.All that being said, I was immediately SERIOUSLY turned off by the signage on the door stating there's an entry fee if you don't buy anything. I often check out local fish stores when I'm driving around the state looking for specific hard to find fish. Maybe they'll have them, maybe not. But if they don't have what I'm looking for I have to pay to check? In all my travels I've never experienced anything like this and it gave me an icky feeling.I absolutely understand how "annoying" browsers can be- trust me, coming from experience vending animals at trade shows.Unfortunately it's just part of the game when you have something fun and interesting people want to look at. You never know though when you'll convert someone who's just curious into a full blown enthusiast- dont burn those bridges.

Oshkosh is incredibly lucky to have a store like this! I would travel far and wide just to come buy from this business. They have a stunning variety of fish, snails, crabs, shrimp, etc (including many that I've never seen in ordinary local pet shops). You can tell this team works hard to keep up the place; the tanks are all in great condition and the building has a very welcoming atmosphere inside! I will certainly be coming back again in the future.
