    What a wonderful aquarium store. This place is huge. They have unique things like stingray and more. Everyone of their tanks are filled with fish. Salt water and fresh water fish. They have coral . They have a big section of drift wood and hardscape. The variety of fish food is good. They have good selection of substrate. I like the colors of gravel. My Number 1 reason I like this store so much is that they have all different tank ideas on display. I have taken plenty of pictures over the years and have gotten some excellent ideas for my own tanks. Great help from staff. I have asked lots of questions I am only 4 years into fish keeping. They are Knowledgeable about everything. I have really appreciated the help and suggestions

    Every time we come to VA beach my husband wants to make a pit stop here. They have a wide selection of fish, salt, brackish and fresh. My only complaint is their pricing is kind of high for fish in general. The store is clean and well kept. If you're looking for food and fish supplies you can find it here. Support local businesses.

    Here is a planaria that I got from them.

    Beware buying fish or plants here. They have planaria in there fish tanks. My tank ended up with planaria which killed all my cherry shrimp when I bought moss from them. I went in and told them and showed them the live planaria in their tanks and 2 months later I found that they still have planaria in many of their tanks. It cost me over $150 worth of nano shrimp and I ended up having to trash my aquarium and start all over with brand new substrate, plants, and nano shrimp. I had to bleach everything that I wanted to save from the old tank and start the nitrogen cycle all over again before I can add any shrimp or fish to the tank. I was just in there this week and they still have planaria in there stable tanks, nano shrimp tanks and multiple tropical fish tanks.

    Fantastic store I could spend hours in. The three goldfish I have gotten from here are thriving! Craig has been an amazing help, and so has the gentleman in the pond room. (I don't remember his name, I am so sorry.) The prices are extremely fair, as you're not getting cheap fish like from a Petsmart. This store is a good distance away from me but I will absolutely drive here for any and all my fish needs. Oh! Also the black orchid betta I bought from here last year is still trucking in his gorgeous aquascaped tank!

    See all

    They had shrimp in stock that no other store (5 others) had. And they had plenty. Their setup is amazing!

    So I used to come here quite often until I noticed a trend in who couldn't and could actually…read morehandle the small animals. So I scaled my patronage down a bit. Fast forward to today. My husband told me about some smaller bunnies he'd seen in there a few weeks ago. As I own a few New Zealand Bucks. Personally my trip in today was for a live feeder rat for my 6 year old ball python. Needless to say I saw two little bunnies behind a little girl who was sitting on a bench who actually wasnt even aware they were behind her because I asked were they hers and she said no. So then I asked the young lady at the counter could the bunnies be held or pet and she said yes. Soon as I go to pick up a bunny another lady who 1. Fails to even identify whom she is states Oh no you cant hold it, but you can pet it. So let me get this straight as a potential customer I cant hold an animal I'm potentially interested in?? So how many people go to buy a car and just purchase it right off the lot, no test drive? I'll wait... My point is every time I come into Pet Paradise I'm being told oh you can pet the bunnies or the ferrets but you cant hold them. Mind you I've seen "others," allowed to do just that. I've owned every animal mentioned previously in my 40+ years but it appears only certain people have the privilege here to actually interact with potential furbabies. Whelp they say word of mouth is the best form of marketing so figured I'd put the word out because it's a reoccurring theme I'm quite tired of and figured I'd let folks know about the fickle behavior of oh peep this the supposed manager who "Can Do what she wants," as I was told by the young lady behind the counter. Now last I checked a manager wasnt the owner but hey what do I know? I just need to find a better pet store with similar or BETTER options closer to me in Suffolk. Nobody buys cars without test driving, nobody adopts a dog without interacting, so why am I limited to petting a rabbit only and not holding it, but told oh you can hold it if your intentions is to buy one by the young lady behind the counter.. whew I could say so much but trust me I dont think I have to.

When we made it to the bird section, I was literally reaching for the sanitizer and the man demanded we put some on, and got mad at me for replying "I'm perfectly capable of reading " I'm new to the area ,and don't know if we will be returning to spend money in an establishment that acts as if they don't want you there. Super cute animals though!

    Very disappointing experience. I do not recommend purchasing pets from this store…read more Today, my husband generously donated two large, healthy Oscar fish (which can grow up to 7 inches) because our tank at home was too small for them. While there, our 7-year-old son picked out three small glow fish, which we purchased at full price ($10 each)--no discount or credit was offered for the donation. We chose to support a local business, so we were happy to pay it forward. Unfortunately, within 30 minutes of introducing the new fish to our tank, they all died--despite proper acclimation. When my husband called the store to explain what happened and seek a possible resolution, he was told there was nothing they could do: no refund, no replacement, and no discussion of the fish we had donated just an hour earlier. The store simply cited a strict no-return policy. When I arrived home, our son was heartbroken and in tears. He had gone from feeling excited about his new fish to having none at all in the span of half an hour. This experience felt very disrespectful and dismissive, especially considering our goodwill donation. The customer service lacked empathy, and it's clear this business is not community-oriented. I will be sharing our experience with other local and military families so they can make an informed decision, NOT to shop here. If I could give zero stars, I would.

I reached out to the shop hoping they were not part of this online bird sale scam. I was disappointed to find out they were part of it. They ask for Zelle money in hopes of a new baby in this case a bird. Then they have a third party ask for more money for a "refundable wildlife insurance " to help it along. In this case it was another $800. Please be aware

I stocked up on a bag of dog food and some dental chews. I definitely recommend signing up for their email list because this was a great deal and I don't believe they had any restrictions.

    Quick Stop at Pet Supplies Plus…read more Okay, so we usually go to PetSmart for our essentials, but today we decided to try something new and check out Pet Supplies Plus -- mostly because it's way closer to home. Sometimes convenience wins, right? We popped in to grab Lexi's usual -- Hill's Science Diet for Sensitive Stomachs (bougie bellies only ‍) -- and let me tell you, they had a huge selection of dog food options. The store was pretty busy but well-stocked, which is always a good sign. I wish I had taken some photos (next time, I promise!), but I did take a quick stroll down the aisles to see if they had any dog clothes... and sadly, no outfits in sight. You know Lexi doesn't go anywhere without a fit check, so we always scope out the fashion section. On the bright side, they had: Tons of treats A great variety of toys Leashes, collars, and accessories ...but no sparkle, no glam, no bougie wear The price for our dog food was a bit higher than what we usually pay at other spots, but for the convenience of being so close to home, it worked out just fine this time. So would we go back? Maybe for quick pickups. But for fashion? We'll have to keep looking.

    Happy vibes here!…read more This is absolutely the place to go if you loving caring for your feathered (even furry squirrel) friends. Or if you prefer to keep the squirrels at bay and cater to the birds, they've got solutions for that too! I've been patronizing this store for many years and renew my $25 membership yearly. The membership is a great option if you shop regularly as it provides a discount every time you shop. With the amount I spend annually on bird food, it pays for itself in dividends. The staff is incredibly welcoming, and have fielded my questions about dealing with annoying starlings and black birds and what to offer my songbirds with the changing seasons. I also love that they stock thoughtful gifts like jewelry, cards, books, garden flags, bird baths and other decor. At the holidays, they have packages for anyone interested in starting a new birding hobby with tips and tricks. And once (or maybe twice) a year, they offer a feeder trade in event to get new, discounted feeders. Most of my dollars here are spent on the food, which is high quality (so don't expect to pay what you would for a bag of filler at Lowe's or Home Depot). That also means the birds don't throw most of it on the ground looking for the "good stuff." A 20# bag lasts me quite a long time in an air-tight container. I also enjoy picking out a couple of ornaments each year from their ever-changing selection. What's most valuable to me about WBU is that they have allowed me to spend more time outside in our backyard with my daughter, who at under 2 years, can already identify a cardinal, Carolina bluebird, finch, titmouse, chickadee, wren, sparrow and, yes, even a dreaded starling! The staff knows their stuff and they clearly love what they do!

Beyond the selection, the rates were competitive to what you can find at online retailers. First off, there was a store cat... who was a little aloof but open to pets. Off to a good start. We browsed the many seed and feeder options before telling one of the employees that my Dad loved feeding birds, but was at constant odds with the squirrels in his backyard We got a thorough rundown of the many squirrel deterrent options, and ended up walking away with a cute little feeder for the squirrels that would distract them away from the birdfeeders my Dad has all over his back yard. The employees were super chill and made the shopping experience very pleasant. They had a great many options for feeders of all shapes and sizes, some crazy contraptions for anti-squirrel bird feeders. They didn't hover or make it awkward when the sales pitch portion was done, and let us noodle on the purchase in peace. Very knowledgable, and also clearly run by animal lovers. Would definitely come back.
