    Foods and Additives.

    Great addition to the aquarium game here in Memphis. We were starving for decent "pet" fish stores for many years. Now there must be at least five shops worth paying a visit. They all vary somewhat in their expertise, style, and set up. This makes it worthwhile to spread your business around and keep everyone around if you love the hobby as I do. These guys have an excellent selection of both fresh and saltwater fish. The prices are actually some of the best around, and I dare say they have the best quantity and diversity of fish anywhere within several hundred miles. My jaw has hit the floor a couple times with what they had in stock. They have tanks for sale. It looks like he builds stands and canopies himself. Not sure how he is with marine setups with sumps, skimmers, and high end monitoring systems. I did see plastic dish scrub pads in the sumps at the store, so there is that. Not the greatest media for bacteria growth, but to each their own. They have a small selection of corals for sale but the ones they do have are generally pretty nice. I bought an ultra maxima clam and it is doing great. It was priced extremely well compared to other places. The place does always seem to be in some sort of construction when I am there so that makes it feel a bit chaotic. There is definitely a lot going on here most of the time. My senses and mind get pretty stimulated. I wish they had more "salty type" goods in stock such as salt, additives, pumps, filter media, live rock, more corals, and a better selection of reef type foods. I get it though, you can't be everything to everyone. They are doing a pretty good job at what they are doing here now though! '24 - 46/100

    Great shop for all freshwater and saltwater tank needs. They have numerous types of corals and other saltwater life available including a wide array of rare or hard to come by fishes. Same goes for their inventory of freshwater fish. They have the basics and then they will get random rare fish in, quite often. So come by often and see the inventory!!! They also sell frozen foods for fish, fish tanks with and without stands, conditioners, tubing, filters and more. We have been buying fish from here for a few years now and just brought home a Congo puffer. All of the employees have been very knowledgeable and helpful and always very polite and personable. We have been beyond happy with all of our purchases from here and are looking forward to adding more cool fish to our tanks.

    What a great aquarium shop!!! This place is just awesome…read more I am a saltwater reef aquarium enthusiast, but this store made me want a freshwater, planted tank, again in a bad way. I have been contemplating setting up a tank in my office at work. I wanted a clownfish and anemone tank, but planted freshwater is much easier to manage when traveling for work and not being around to take care of it. Small saltwater tanks (under 150 gallons) are not ideal really. The evaporation wreaks havoc on the salinity and trace elements. One gallon of evaporation on a small salty tank will alter salinity big time. Salinity is measured in "Specific Gravity". Specific gravity is the ratio of a substance's density to the density of a reference substance, usually water, and is a unitless quantity used to compare the density of substances. A specific gravity of 1 means the substance has the same density as water, while values greater than 1 indicate it's denser and will sink in water, and values less than 1 mean it's less dense and will float. So what that means really is, as the water evaporates, the salt stays behind and raises the "density" of the water thus putting more pressure on the inhabitants within. Sorry.... Went on a tear there.... now you know though.... You are welcome. The owner of the place is super cool, very helpful, and extremely knowledgeable. Win. Win. Win. He only does fresh water and is an authorized Fluval dealer with all of their lines of aquatic goods, as well as small nano type tanks all the way up to the all in one 80 gallon tank. Nice stuff! Built in Fluval filtration makes it easy to maintain. If you are curious about freshwater aquariums, I believe this is the best place to go. I do dare say that this is by far and away the best fish store in the Shelby County area. It's clean, well kept, organized, and the tanks and fish look fantastic. '25 - 97/111

    Been going to the zoo since I was a kid. This place is amazing and we have some good animals. Went…read morerecently with some friends & their kids. Parking was $10 and since it was a Saturday afternoon, the lot was packed but we could still find a spot. I got a kick out of people parking on the grass. Walking up the front, you see statues of animals that you can take pics from. Bought tickets online so all we had to do is scan our QR code and we were good to go and explore. There is so much to see at this Zoo. You can see Cheetahs, lions, axolotls, lemurs and my favorite - Penguins. They also have a zip line. My bf tried it and he loves the view. Also be the lookout for their events & themed nights like Zoo Boo & Lantern Festival. Even a drinking event called roar & pour. And fellow Tennesseans - don't forget about Tennessee Tuesday where you can go for free!

    Every time we come here lately, there seems to be at least one area (usually more) under…read moreconstruction. This time it was cat country (couldn't walk the entire board walk), the area across from the penguins / aquarium, the farm and I'm sure there were more (we only walked about 1/4 of the zoo today). While my kids and I normally enjoy the zoo a lot, today lots of construction was happening and we couldn't see some of the animals we came to see. Lots of times animals are off exhibit. While we have a membership and can come back any time, I'm sure this construction is disappointing for paying visitors. If this would have been my only visit they would have gotten less stars. But because I know how a visit potentially could be, I am still giving 4 stars out of 5. They have great zoo camps and programs as well! My children always enjoy themselves.
