On 11/3/22 I Purchased @Reef Monster in Mesa, Az. This Blue Starfish not knowing of his injuries.
Lori W.

I went to Reef Monsters 4460 E Main St. Suite 101 Mesa Az. 85205 to buy a few things I had put on my wishlist. 8 bags and a bag of sand later $301.27 One was a Blue tie-dyed starfish When I was watch James owner @Reef Monster. I had noticed then when James was taking the starfish out of their tank the starfish had something underneath him like something from their tank. Have placing all8 bags into my tank, I started video taping. This is when I saw it was physically attached to him. Plus two small cuts with his meat starting to come out. I took him out of the tank immediately. I was sending emails and text with pictures nothing went through. I called Reef Monster, James answered. He asked if I could send some pictures. My daughter sent them through Social Media. James text my daughter back, "He looked great when I bagged him up." (I, Lori do not doubt that at all.) James said that it could not be my water he just tested it. James text, "For that to happen that fast that is not a good sign. If I kept the starfish in the tank he would not make it" I had netted him as soon as I say his injuries in my tank.The starfish had not moved since I placed him in the tank. I brought him back as James said to do. His wife Ash came out from their office and wished me died. All livestock finally. I took a very injured starfish home from your tank. Accusing me for all the injuries to this poor little starfish that was in pain. Two of his legs all contorted My $45. Very injured Starfish is back with Reef Monster where the injuries took place.

Don't let the outside fool you!

AZ reef monsters has very clean tanks free of parasites anstaff is very knowledgeable and I've pretty much done business with all of the reef shops in the Phoenix area and overall I'm gonna say in terms of corals and fish I would have to rate Arizona reef monsters at the top.

The fishes here are so beautiful

Okay so why haven't I heard of this place before?!?! I have been driving 45 minutes to another Aquarium store but now found my new favorite. I bought first snowflake eel from here. Super happy with him. The girl here so knowledgeable and friendly. I been here twice already and will be coming back. The prices are also the best around from what I seen. You should defiantly come and check it out.

Thanks James & Jorell... You guys are the best!!! Great customer service, very friendly...

See all

I wrote a tip thinking it was a review. Long story short bad service, minimal selection,pricey, and dispirited environment.

They literally changed our fish tanks' life! Our tank went from dark sad and gloomy to happy,…read morebright, and colorful. I couldn't thank them more for the glow up they gave our tank!! I love looking at it all the time :)

HORRIBLE AND COSTLY EXPERIENCE!!! I called Jeremy to get an estimate for a custom tank build in…read moreJanuary 2020. I had a large tank was leaking so I had to move 2 large cichlids to a smaller temporary tank. He came to my house and took measurements. He knew the urgency of my request due to my fish being in a temporary holding tank... BUT I NEVER HEAD BACK FROM HIM. I tried to call, text, and email for follow up for 2 weeks on a timeframe... no response. After over 2 weeks of no response, I searched more and finally found a tank builder through Aquarium Arts in Mesa, which took another 3+ weeks to actually get a tank made. Never heard from Jeremy during this entire ~6 week process. The lack of response and delay in getting my fish into a new tank caused my huge Blood Parrot to get sick and eventually die, even after taking him to an aquatic vet twice for treatment. Jeremy was simply unresponsive, unreliable, and unprofessional. He had all of my contact info...phone, email, and address. He was at my house. He has no excuse for his lack of response. He likely didn't see the opportunity for the cleaning service as he seems to focus on salt water tanks, so he likely decided to just move on and leave me hanging... this is not a business that cares about customers, referrals, or being professional.
