    Ernie was recommended to me by my garden contractor Sam and have to say it was the best recommendation ever.

    Tony is always helpful and you get the best possible prices anywhere. They have a great selection…read moreof fish at great prices.

    I am highly disappointed with our experience here and will not be returning…read more My 9-year-old daughter was originally so excited to visit this shop with her dad to buy her very first guppies. Unfortunately, they died within 24 hours, leaving her heartbroken. Since we live in the High Desert, we aren't local, but we decided to stop by again when we were back in the area. We spoke directly with Miguel and explained what happened. He assured my husband and me that if we took pictures of any future losses and kept our receipt, we could call him within 3 days and he "would work something out" with us. Based on that assurance, we bought 20 more fish. Sadly, the majority of them have already died. I followed instructions perfectly: I took photos of the dead fish and kept my receipt. However, when I called the shop, Miguel completely changed his terms, stating I now needed to bring the physical dead fish into the store and provide a water sample. I tested my water quality myself, and it is perfectly within range. In fact, I already have an existing tank of guppies that are actively thriving and reproducing--we only bought these new fish to add some color. Furthermore, the fish we purchased from Rainbow brought Ich into our established tank. Despite immediately treating the tank, the infection still killed the new fish and compromised my healthy ones. It is incredibly frustrating to be given a verbal guarantee only to have the store move the goalposts when a problem arises. Terrible customer service and unhealthy livestock. Save your time and money and go elsewhere.

    I was on an HOA in a townhome community that had 5 ponds on the property. No matter who we called,…read morethe ponds usually ended up looking awful and had a chemical odor to them. Being a contractor I started to interview different companies to see what they could do. I was very impressed the first time I met Tony. Every other company told me they were going to do this, do that.......Tony looked at our ponds and told me they had the motors converted from above ground to pits in the ponds (how did he know that). We walked the property (which had many different types of trees, plants, etc) and he showed me why we were having problems with the waters clarity - too much debris. He didn't try to tell me what I wanted to hear, his solution was to clean the ponds (that the last vendor didn't do for years). As the motors failed, he would upgrade them and re-plumb the lines to keep debris out. He also knew a lot about the chemicals we were using - way too much. After bringing Tony on the ponds cleaned up and did not smell of chlorine. Our ponds were repaired by another company poorly and because of this (constant) maintenance was the only was to keep them looking beautiful. It's not what the HOA wanted to hear, but (being a contractor) Tony was honest about our issues. He wasn't the guy with the quick cheap fix. Doing things right the first time, his understanding of our systems and our environment.....guess you could say Tony and Coral Reef should (at the very least) is a company you should call if your water systems aren't what they should be. They are "Billy Approved"!

    Aquarium City is one of those places that reminds you why local fish stores matter…read more Every employee I've interacted with has been friendly, helpful, and genuinely passionate about fishkeeping. I've asked plenty of questions over time and have always received thoughtful, accurate advice. In fact, some of the best advice I've gotten there has been when they talked me OUT of buying something that wasn't right for my tank. Their fish are healthy, their tanks are clean, and the overall level of care is obvious the moment you walk through the door. As someone who pays close attention to fish health and aquarium maintenance, that's something I notice immediately. I drive past other stores to shop here because I trust the staff, trust the quality of their livestock, and know they care about the animals they're selling. That's earned my business for the long term.

    I cannot say enough amazing things about Aquarium City. From the moment you walk in, you can tell…read morethis place is run by people who truly care, not just about their business, but about their customers and the animals themselves. The selection is incredible. Everything is clean, well maintained, and thoughtfully set up. You don't get that overwhelming, chaotic feeling that a lot of aquarium stores have. This place feels organized, calm, and honestly just really beautiful to walk through. What really sets them apart though is the customer service. They take their time with you, answer every question no matter how small, and you can tell they actually know what they're talking about. There is no pressure and no upselling, just genuinely helpful guidance, which is so rare these days. I also really appreciate how much they care about making sure you're set up for success, not just making a sale. They give honest advice and want your tank to thrive long after you leave the store. Whether you're brand new to aquariums or have been doing this for years, this is hands down the place to go. You can feel the passion the second you walk in. I will definitely be coming back again and again. Highly, highly recommend.
