    Test kits for Saltwater
    Crispy S.

    The new owners at Gio Marine are doing an excellent job keeping the store well stocked with all the essentials for saltwater aquarium hobbyists. Every time I stop by, I find more of what I need from additives and food to maintenance items. Their prices are very reasonable, and you can tell they care about the hobby and their customers. I'm really looking forward to seeing even more test kits, food options, and fish come in as they continue to grow. This has definitely become one of my go-to spots for reef supplies!

    We just had to share some love for this amazing local aquarium shop!…read more We've gotten some of our favorite fish here--including our green phantom pleco, fire eel, Congo spotted puffer, and angels--and every visit has been such a great experience. The store is always beautiful, clean, and full of unique and hard-to-find fish. You can really tell how much care and passion goes into everything they do. The staff is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to answer our (many!) questions and help guide us in the right direction. It makes such a difference, especially when you're new into the hobby! Lastly, as a mom, I have to add one of my favorite touches: every time we come in, they give my son fish stickers, and he looks forward to it just as much as seeing the fish. It's those little things that make this place extra special. Highly recommend stopping by if you're into aquariums--you won't be disappointed

    This place is truly awesome! If you're a parent looking to get your kids a starter fish or someone…read morewho enjoys looking at fish tanks and aquariums then you have to come here. They have everything you could ever want, from fresh water fish and plants, to salt water fish. And one of the most impressive things they know what the hell they're talking about. I recently went to PetSmart and no one could really give me information on fish, tanks, food, etc. but this place is total opposite. Everyone is knowledgeable, kind, and patient. Even if you're not buying anything it's a great place to bring a child to look at fish. They have 3 rows of fish tanks to look at and it could take awhile. But please buy something. Let's support small businesss like these so we don't have to give it to the big box stores.

    All the good things I read about Affordable Aquarium Services inYELP are true! My son has a 20…read moregallon aquatic tank with 2 good size turtles that he's been neglecting to clean after we remodeled and it was moved to a corner spot. The tank has gotten extremely dirty & gross to say the least and we realized we needed help! I called up Affordable Aquarium based on the Yelp reviews and talked to Andrew. I told him honestly that we have a turtle tank that's filthy with things growing in it and could send him a picture first. Andrew was not a bit hesitant and said there's no need to see a photo of it before he comes out. I asked and agreed with his fee and he asked me further questions about the size of tank, age, filter...etc. so he can be well prepared for the appointment. Andrew was very acommodating and was able to fit me into his already busy schedule right away. He arrived punctually with all the stuff needed for my job. I was very impressed with Andrew - he's professional, efficient, personable and caring for the pets (our turtles), the tank and our floor/furniture. He thoroughly took out and cleaned the contents (floating rock..etc) in the tank, scrubbed down/scrapped all the gross yucky stuff along with whatever bugs in there. Long story short when he's done our tank is restored to a clean tank with clear water & happy turtles!! Something we haven't seen in years!? Thank you Andrew! My son really really appreciates your help too! I would recommend Andrew's Affordable Aquarium Services to anyone!

Matt and Andrew came in, made my aquarium look brand new and have done a great job maintaining it. They also recommended and selected additional fish to add and all the fish seem very happy and cheerful. They come once a month, are fast, very clean and friendly. They are not cheap, but you are paying for their expertise and professionalism.

    Im very sorry for the extremely long review but this was my experience…read more........ I heard of Aquatic Collection through the Reef Beef podcast. I knew that Richard and his royal highness, Ben Johnson only back products and companies that they believe in. I recently set up a very small frag tank that I plumbed into my main display. I was excited because its a nano frag tank where I can keep alot of the very small fish my rainbow basslet would love to eat. Im a sucker for wrasses and blennies. A Choati, earmuff, China, radiant wrasse and Oman Blenny are the pride and joy of my tank. As soon as my nano frag tank was up and running I was able to finally get my geometric pgmy hawkfish (his name is Cornelius). The next was a pink streaked cryptic wrasse. As most unique fish, they come in seasons. I ordered from a big box site knowing very well that these little wrasses are delicate shippers, at the time this site was the only ones that had them in. This was a death sentence. For some reason they sent the first one as overnight standard, the water was 94 degrees when I recieved him. For a lack of better judgement and selfishness I agreed for a replacement. I was sent another. This time i made sure they held him at the terminal which was an hour away from my house. I got there as soon as they opened and went straight home to find another dead wrasse the died in a little bag. I wasn't going to kill another one so I asked for a refund and waited. I called every LFS in the city and no one had them. So I looked in the next biggest city/state which was San Diego. 6 hours one way for a total of 12 hours round trip. I found a place that had one and they held it for me. Two nights later I was doing tank maintenance listening to Bens lovely voice sing about aquatic collection. I thought i guess I can look to see if they had one and to my surprise, they did. However, I committed myself to the San Diego store. I bought them lunch the day before as a thank you for holding him and I would see them that next day. The morning of my day trip, I woke up and thought to myself am i crazy? Driving 12 hours for a small fish, i asked my fiancee and she ensured me, that I am crazy. So I gave Aquatic Collection a chance. The day of shipping I called Aquatic Collection and got ahold of Ryan who handles their online livestock shipments. Ryan was such a breath of fresh air to talk to. The fish was already packed. Ryan told me exactly how he packed the fish. He went above and beyond to ensure the fish gets to me alive. Again, the fish was already packed and I called him explaining my situation. So prior to my story he already did everything he could to ensure a safe trip for my wrasse. I had the fish shipped to the shipping terminal again, just to be safe. I drove my hour one way get my package and nervously drove back home. I opened the box and HE WAS ALIVE. The joy i felt in that moment makes this hobby worth all the hardships. I immediately called Ryan to thank him, he actually used weather data, experience and his resources to ensure the fish was packed correctly for its journey. This tiny 1.5" in fish was packed in an XL bag with 3lbs of water. The big box website I used previously had the fish in a small bag with probably 6 cups of water. Aquatic Collection and Ryan has earned a customer for life. I am singing their praises everywhere I go. After talking with Ryan I knew i was gettimg an animal that was truly cared for and packed for success. This really mean the world to me, thank you very much Ryan and the Aquatic Collection Team........and Richard and his Royal highness, Ben Johnson

    Went in on a Friday afternoon to purchase fresh water plants, I bought 4 different species of…read moreplants, one in particular being "FOXTAIL". The very next day ALL the leafs of that specific species fell off! The other plants were fine , I then called Saturday the very next day to ask about either an exchange or a refund and I spoke to a representative named Mike whose immediate response was "no! there's something wrong with your tank" / "all sales are final" Mike offered no help or tips or nothing just simply blame my tank, which already has shrimp and fish and other vegetation that is doing just fine........ Definitely do not recommend buying from here unless you know for a fact, if something doesn't work out, you're screwed no refunds, exchanges, or any help. Bad bad business practice
