    I am getting back into the hobby and have a 20 gallon aquarium I needed to fill with fish. I went to petsmart first, and they were understaffed, so they weren't selling fish. This was close by and I saw it online and figured would stop in. I was immediately welcomed by the staff and as I looked they checked in a couple of times. When I was ready I was able to get help and recommendations as well as answers to any questions. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable and isn't afraid to tell you no or if the idea you have may not work. That I can appreciate. They had a Black Friday sale going on as well. I will be back soon to get some live plants!

    I can't recommend this place enough whether you are advanced or a beginner. I got all my fish supplies from here including food and both the snail and my beta fish. The workers here are super knowledgeable and they have prebuilt aquarium tanks here as well as freshwater & saltwater fishes + critters. They also sell natural plants you can keep in your tank and i'd highly recommend.

    I've been to fish stores all over San Antonio and Austin. This one is my new favorite. They have the best selection of freshwater aquatic plants I've ever seen in an in-person store. Several several tanks. They have a large variety of shrimp and good amounts of them too. They have a lot of bettas, and all are kept in little tanks with a live plant and not just a cup. Lots of treated wood decor to look through. Can't recommend this store more. :)

    I always come here for all of my aquarium needs! Very conveniently close to my house and a lot of locals recommend this place! Sometimes I feel like their corals and equipment are a bit overpriced but I love the variety of fish and livestock! The only complaints I have are: coral frags I get from here usually have Aptasia and pests, so I always have to dip them first! Also I have seen a few dead fish floating around in the tanks from time to time...but other than that I would recommend them to anyone interested in getting started in the aquarium hobby!

    Beautiful discus, my fave

    We have 4 aquariums and are always needing something. I needed a rubber lip pleco and a long fin bushy nose to handle algae duty in one of my tanks. What I like most about shopping here is the wonderful assortment of freshwater fish and aquatic plants. Their Anubis plants are gorgeous and one of my favorites. They have beautiful discus, Rams, angels, Cory's--you name it, they pretty much have it. Their selection of wood ornaments come in a variety of neat shapes and sizes. They also carry equipment, supplies, saltwater fish, etc.

    Amazing fish store with a beautiful set up. The staff are friendly and extremely knowledgeable and the selection is exceptional. The display tanks are epic as well! I love stopping by here and highly recommend a visit.

    Betta we brought home!
    Erin P.

    This store treats their fish really well. If you want a betta this is the best place in Austin to buy from. Staff is knowledgeable, patient and helpful. I went around to fish stores in Austin this one by far treats their fish the best. Bought my betta from here!

    See all

    If you're a new pet owner like me, you know how daunting the pet food aisle can be. I stopped by…read morethis Petco today feeling pretty lost, but an associate named Ashley completely turned my experience around. What stood out most was her empathy; she really understood the trial and error process of finding litter and food that a pet will actually use. She was attentive, highly knowledgeable, and didn't make me feel rushed even though I was in a hurry. It's rare to encounter that kind of 'above and beyond' service. Because of Ashley's kindness and expertise, this location has earned a loyal customer. Five stars!

    I had a very disappointing experience with the veterinarian at Petco…read more My daughter brought her dog in for a rabies shot after he had just received his routine vaccinations at another clinic. Although her appointment there was at 11:00 AM, the actual vaccinations were administered at 12:45 PM -- which the Petco staff confirmed directly with the clinic. Despite this verification, the veterinarian refused to provide the rabies shot because she believed it had not been done "within an hour" of the earlier appointment time. Even after being given the correct vaccination time, she would not reconsider. Her demeanor came across as dismissive, unhelpful, and unprofessional. As a result, my daughter had to drive across town to another veterinarian, wait behind urgent cases, and go through additional stress just to get a routine rabies vaccine completed. Thankfully, our dog is fine -- but the situation was completely avoidable. Veterinary care should prioritize animals' well-being and treat clients with respect. This experience fell short on both. I hope management reviews how situations like this are handled so other families don't have to go through the same frustration.

    I have always been a loyal customer, bringing my dog here for almost a year now, but my most recent…read morevisit was extremely disappointing. I scheduled an appointment online for 11:00 AM to bathe my dog, who weighs over 95 lbs. Since no one answered the phone, I booked online assuming it would be for the standard one-hour slot. When I arrived, no one mentioned that the appointment was only 30 minutes. It wasn't until my dog was already completely wet and I was about to begin drying her that an employee came over to tell me I only had 5 minutes left because another appointment was scheduled. The problem is not simply that the appointment was 30 minutes--it's that I wasn't told this from the start. If I had been informed as soon as I arrived, I would have decided not to begin, knowing it wouldn't be enough time for such a large dog. Instead, I had no option: my dog was left wet, and I was forced to stop in the middle of the process. They told me I wouldn't be charged, but it was far from "free." I wasted my time, my dog was left wet and uncomfortable, and as many dog owners know, wet dogs start to smell if they aren't dried properly. I then had to drive home, figure out another place, and bathe her all over again--because I couldn't just pay somewhere else to finish drying a wet dog, she needed a complete bath from the beginning. Tomlinson's really needs to improve how appointments are managed and communicated, especially for large breeds. Customers must be clearly informed about time limits before starting--not after their dog is already wet. This would prevent frustration and ensure a professional, respectful experience for loyal customers.
