    100% best LFS in the whole bay area. Tanks are pristine and I've never seen any dead fish in all of…read moremy visit. They have an amazing showroom at the corner with multiple $50-60K tanks. Livestocks are healthy, probably the healthiest among all LFSs in the bay. Also, this is one of the few stores that sell you the correct chili rasboras, not phoenix rasboras; they colored up properly in just 1 hour after I got home. Decent prices overall but they sell CPDs a bit high ($14). I like the customer support here but I see why some people don't like them. The staff won't talk to you unless you directly ask them. They are very friendly tho. So, don't wait for them to check on you if you need something. I actually prefer this way. Decent price but they sell CPDs a bit expensive so you might want to try another store if you want to buy CPDs.

    I was a bit worried about my visit due to some of the negative reviews…read more I only interacted with two staff members but both seemed enthusiastic to help me while also giving me space to shop. The conditions of these tanks are PRISTINE. I'm not sure if it's due to their lightning or something else but the water just looks very clear and clean. I didn't see a single dead fish while browsing. Based on this fact, I'd like to believe that their livestock is quite healthy. They also make their policies VERY clear. It's on their website and there are also signs around the shop. Maybe these policies aren't that shocking to me since I buy lots of livestock online that don't have a guarantee after you add it to your aquarium. They do not have a phone number to check stock but they do post updates on their website and email newsletter. They claim it's due to high foot traffic but it wasn't very busy when I was there (Friday afternoon) with that being said, all of the staff members were doing something while I was at the store. I think they just don't have enough people sometimes. Price wise, yes some of the fish are outrageously priced ($14 for a CPD is crazy) but many of them seem reasonable. I assume it's however they're getting their stock or the fact that they offer 20% discounts if you get a 40G+ kit. They also sell cycled media for $20/lb if you're impatient to cycle a tank! I would highly recommend as a place to visit if you're just setting up a new tank or need a more uncommon/rare fish. They'll have basically anything you need but you can definitely get more common fish like pygmy corys, pea puffers, CPDs, etc elsewhere if you're looking to save money. Below are some prices based on my June 2026 visit to give you a sense of their pricing: Keep in mind that not all of these were in stock so prices might change. PLANTS Bucephalandra 'Blue Metallic' - $20 Bucephalandra 'Brownie Purple' (loose) - $15 Bucephalandra 'Mahap Blue Round' (loose) - $20 Limnophila Hippuroides Aromatica (bunch) - $6 Rotala 'Ceylon' (bunch) - $8 Rotala 'Orange Juice' (bunch) - $8 FISH Betta - $25 to $45 Blue Rasbora - $8 Chili Rasbora - $5.60 Celestial Pearl Danio - $14 Ember Tetra - $4.65 Emerald Dward Rasbora - $8 Ghost Shrimp - $1 Gold Stripe Goby - $45 Gold Tetra - $6.50 Hillstream Loach (Red Fin) - $30 Otocinclus - $7.50 Panda Loach - $30 Pea Puffer - $14 Pencilfish - $5 Phoenix Rasbora - $5 Pygmy Corydoras - $7.85 Pygmy Spotted Maculatus Rainbow fish - $11 Rasbora - $3.25 Rhinotocinclus Isabelae Oto - $20 Scarlet Badis - $7.75 Spotted Danio - $7 Strawberry Rasbora - $4.25 Zebra Otocinclus - $29 SHRIMP Amano Shrimp - $5.50 SNAILS Assassin Snail - $5 Batman Nerite - $5-6 Pumpkin Striped Nerite - $6
