I was looking for a fish/pet store and found Aquatic Gardens. I had every fish due from Petsmart…read moreand was determined to find somewhere else to purchase fish n fix the water quality in my fish tank. These fish are amazing, and full of life. The Petsmart I used to go to didn't have tanks like Rick. They just weren't as active. I learned alot from Rick and I'm thrilled I found a fish store who really knows their fish and are great at helping u to get great water quality. I drive kinda far to get there but it's worth it to come home with some quality tropical fish!

Really nice locally owned pet store. They have a nice assortment of fish, mice, birds and lizards.read more

It's been almost 10 years since I was in the hobby last time and he (bluntly) advised me regarding the science of light strengths.

I've been to this location twice now, and let me tell you -- the staff here are incredibly…read moreknowledgeable. They don't just sell you fish and send you on your way. They take the time to: 1 Check your water quality 2 Help you actually understand what those numbers mean They explain how tanks go through different spikes before leveling out and becoming safe for fish, which is so important if you want your new pet to thrive. What I really appreciate is that they help you choose fish wisely so that when you bring a new pet home, it actually has a strong chance of survival in your tank. That kind of guidance matters. Plus, almost everything in most of the tanks is for sale, which makes it fun to browse and plan your setup. If you care about doing things the right way and giving your fish the best start possible, this is definitely a place to check out.
