Best LFS (local fish store) in the area!…read more Albeit small this store packs a big punch into its cramped quarters. They have everything to outfit a basic beginner tank to high end CO2 Aquascape, freshwater tanks and high end coral or fish only saltwater set ups! If you've got a desire for monster South American cichlids, they got you covered there as well. Not into aggressive fish?... then they have high-quality betta fish and guppies in the back. C-Macs employees are very knowledgeable about every aspect of the hobby, and are willing to answer even the simplest questions and provide the best solution for your situation. They don't push sales, but try to fit the needs of every customer. I've been in there when it's super packed and there's barely any room to move and the employees are still positive and happy to share their knowledge and help with everyone. I even asked if they were going to move to a larger location and the owner mentioned, he's been looking, but hasn't found the right one yet. If you're old enough to remember the old Fintastic fish store that was the gold standard in Charlotte. This is basically the new version and to be honest it's even better!

Come in and just look at the amazing fish and aquatic specimens they have here. It's amazing what can be kept in your home or office. The owner Chris and his employees are great to talk to and will help you figure out the best fish for your situation. No it's not cheap but this isn't the point this is to provide the best service and living environment for your pet. The store is great and you'll have a hard time leaving without taking home a new pet friend.

We went in on a Sunday and I have to say I'm used to animals and pet stores having worked at Petsmart for a year. If you have asthma please be careful because the smell is a bit strong/guffy. I liked the variety of items from live plants, tanks, bio actives, feeders, supplies, etc. so that was awesome. I was less impressed with the chaotic nature of the shop. Lots of animals everywhere, not sure which were store sold versus part of the rescue and rehab portion of the store. (Love that they do rescue) Not sure if they just don't have a back room to keep supplies but a lot of store use items were on the sales floor so it just seemed a bit chaotic and disorganized unfortunately especially with a lot of empty used tanks randomly stacked in some areas. The other really big down side for me was their prices. A rescue crested gecko was about $190 I believe and there were others cresties that lechies, or larger lizards but they seemed high. The other high price was dubia roaches, which were .50c each at $10 only getting me a 20 count for mediums (1inch ish). I support small stores like this but was bit of a disappointment.

Lots of parking. A little tough to navigate for me (they've just opened & are still moving things in, etc.) but am blown away by a great variety of ferns, greenery, trees & yes, more trees. Good place for homeowners & landscaper pros alike. Pricy to me but you're buying items that are definitely quality & won't die (unlike cheaper places where plants are not as well cared for). I full anticipate changing this rating to a 5 in another 6 months once they're better established.
