I am sad about this as your place is huge and inviting, and your pumps are great, I can't risk another die off like this. I didn't come in and tell you in person as I dislike confrontation. Please be more careful in the future. I had tetras minnows and two plecos in a 38 gallon tank.

We bought two fish from here and both died. One within 48 hours and one within a week. We had the…read morestaff test our tank water after the first fish died and they said our water was perfect and ready for a new fish. When we were getting our second fish, there was one beta in a small cup that was dead and moldy...I had to give the cup with the dead fish to the staff. Seems like they don't check on the fish like they should. I feel so bad for the fish there. I really hope the owner sees this and makes some changes. This makes me so sad. They have people working there that are clearly not educated enough to care for fish. Personally, I don't think this place should be selling any live animals as they don't take good care of them.

Was walking around this area waiting to go eat some Italian food and came by this aquarium store,…read morepeeked into the door as one of the stores staff was outside. I asked to you work here and immediately noticed his t-shirt said something about "aquarium" and duh, of course he does. With a big smile he said, "Go on in! It's great!". Went in and from the cold dry Seattle November weather it immediately shifted to tropical 95% humidity and 82 degrees. The glow of aquarium lights filled the air, the calm karma of light, plants and fish filled the air. Very calming, absolutely no smells, quiet and peaceful came across. This store isn't a fish store although there's fish, it's more of a plant for aquarium's store. Every aquarium had loads of different plants, fish galore and the staff super friendly giving me an introduction to plants and their care and feeding. Very fasicnating store and people that love aquarium's and plants, almost seems like a cult facination. Really loved looking and I can see how people get hooked on this hobby.

As anyone who's been to a Mud Bay store knows, everything about the store is fantastic. I've been…read moreto at least a dozen different Mud Bay stores and they always impress. Store designs and displays are attractive and uniquely Mud Bay, product offerings are vast and updated, and there's a premium vibe to the experience without a premium price. For those unaware, Mud Bay price matches, and for those on a budget (and who's not in 2026), know that MB carries foods that are extremely affordable in addition to hyper-premium foods. Rest assured, regardless of the price of the food, if MB carries it, it's vetted and high quality. My personal favorite thing about Mud Bay, and why I'm leaving this review, is the people. This was my first visit to this Mill Creek store. I'm dog sitting and needed some treats, so of course I pulled up 5 mins before they closed. That wasn't a problem. The two gals working, Amalia and Laura, were beyond incredible. Both women knew a ton about the products I asked about and got me taken care of at my speed. More importantly, they both seemed to truly love their jobs, pets, and people. If I lived in Mill Creek, this would be the only pet store I'd shop. Once again, well done Mud Bay!
