The prices here are reasonable and the selection is by far the best in Cincinnati if you want African Cichlids.

I can no longer continue shopping here for my fish considering there are much better options such…read moreas Aquatics Galore in Fairborn and Aquatics Artisans up in Cincinnati . As typical, I cannot seem to keep any saltwater fish that I buy from here alive longer than 2 days. Yesterday I payed an overpriced amount of $100 on a Midas Blenny for my tank which is matured with 5 other fish and lots of coral. As per usual with any fish I by from Gerbers, the Midas Blenny never acted right and has since died in my tank. I have NEVER had this issue with any other fish from any other LFS. Gerbers is the only store I seem to have problems with when it comes to their fish, and after seeing some of the conditions the other fish are in in several of their tanks, it seems their fish are kept in unhealthy conditions. I would not recommend purchasing fish from Gerbers.

These people are Crooks and the Better Business Bureau is investigating them for unscrupulous…read morebusiness practices. They tell you straight up as well as they have signs showing that they are understaffed and the majority of their employees are new, meaning they have no experience with aquariums or with fish in general. My family and I have had an established tank for 20 years and we go to this place and buy three fish and the young lady tells us to put bacteria in our water to combat algae and it killed every one of the fish in my tank, including the ones we've had for years. Not to mention, we'd bought fish from there the same time and they died that same day. We noticed many tanks had dead fish and didn't look maintained, but we had bought from them years ago and didn't have the same experience then. You'll literally walk through the live tank aisles and see not only dead fish in their tanks, but multiple fish on the floor in open totes deemed ill or infected. To make things worse, they dodged me for days and once I finally got a hold of the owner, he was extremely rude, sounds slightly uneducated (ya know...Murica!), but more importantly he laughed at the fact I told him how hurt we were that ALL OF OUR FISH DIED and that we've invested thousands of dollars over the years keeping our fish and maintaining them and our tank! He said I sounded like a problem customer and that he did not want me back in his store. This place may have been around for a while but it's because they rely on the assumption that aquarium owners come to them for fish & advice so when things go wrong they can simply put it back on you instead of being accountable for the fact that they have employees there that have no business trying to give advice on aquarium maintenance! On a side note, the owner told me to let every other customer know that he doesn't give a crap if we have problems and good luck ever trying to find out what his name is if we want to pursue concerns further. What a disgrace to be a business owner and act this way and more importantly to be in the business of mistreating other living creatures....DISGUSTING!
