I would whole-heartedly recommend Three Little Fish to any aquatic hobbyist whether they are a veteran or a beginner. The services that Mike and Ethan provide are top-notch. They answer every question they know, as well as entertain the silly ones from kids. I used to have to drive down to Canoga Park, Thousand Oaks, or even Ventura to get great-value specimens, but Three Little Fish provides that right here! Thank you - you will always have my business! read more

We got fish for my kids new aquarium at 3 little fish. A young man named Ethan helped us out. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. He helped us to find schooling fish that would do well in our tank. Atmospheres 7/10 very full but kept organized and clean. Friendliness 8/10 it took some time to get help but once we did Ethan was extremely helpful. Cost $$ only slightly more expensive than any big box pet store. Overall 8/10. I would come back. read more

The employees always are helpful and friendly. I have gotten to know them a little bit as I return monthly for RODI water. I am satisfied with my 125 gallon and 240 gallon aquariums and with the delivery and set up. They delivered to the spots in my house where I wanted both aquariums. I also have been happy with ordering specific breeds of fish from them. They go once a week to a wholesaler in Los Angeles and call me once the fish has reached the store. read more

We love this place and are total regulars. They know what they're talking about when it comes to all types of fish & pet needs and have a wonderful selection of Freshwater & Saltwater fish. The service is great, fast and reliable. We value them as a fish/ pet store and really enjoy & appreciate everyone here. Thank you for the wonderful customer service! P & D read more

I LOVE this fish store! Everyone here is super friendly and nice. The main guy that has helped me is Mike. He's extremely knowledgeable with every and any species. He helped guide me to set up my salt water aquarium. I trust his advice 100%. I go to him for anything. He's helped me so much. If you have any questions, ask for Mike. Trust me! He's super sweet! If it weren't for him, my tank wouldn't be thriving like it is right now. Thanks Mike! You're the best! read more

Individualized experience! Super helpful staff and knowledgeable. They couldn't find what I needed but would not give up until I was satisfied. Eventually they found the filter I needed. I was able to set my tank up the same day with their help (rocks, plants, fish, food, conditioner and bacteria) and my fish are doing great! read more

Professional, quick service. They answer all questions that you may have. Great place for aquariums and aquatic animals. Very affordable too. Only concern is the location kinda sucks if you have to turn left into the parking lot and the inside is crowded. So many consistent customer. read more

I'm so sorry I don't recall your name. You have a beard and spent a lot of time with us this afternoon. It was busy but you answered all of our questions and gave honest feedback about what was necessary to address our tank issues and what wasn't. This was of course despite my lack of knowledge and misinformation. In any case I'm looking forward to getting our tank back on track with your help! read more

Customer service is fantastic and the selection of tropical fish are great. Compared to giant chain pet stores like Petsmart...Petsmart is experiencing lot of fish being sold out. But here, there still selection of good quality fish. The associate that help me bagged all of my selected fish by species. I did not even asked her to, which was a nice touch. read more

So I know for a fact they are very knowledgeable about their salt water fish. And have wonderful well taken care of aquariums. I'm giving two stars because they are selling an animal specifically a fresh water crab that they have little knowledge about it's care. I had picked a crab and asked all about it's care before purchasing. The worker informed me it was a 100% aquatic freshwater crab, very easy care, just needs pellet food and gets along with tropical fish. The marking for the crab on the freshwater aquarium was very basic like just "crab". I did try googling his species before purchasing and couldn't find it based on what I could see of them. I should have been wiser and asked specifically what kind of crab it was to help me to proper research before purchase. Either way I brought the little guy home and proceeded to research more about him. I learnd he is a red claw crab. A species that is NOT 100% aquatic NOR FRESHWATER. Infact they need brackish water, do not do well in 100% fresh water and need some kind of land out of water. All of the fish I purchased are doing fine but this little guy died. I really wish their employees werr better trained on what they are selling and could answer the questions with accurate information. As well as having the tanks marked with better information. read more

EXTREMELY friendly, i went in today and asked a few questions. They were more than willing to help me out! They actually asked me if I needed help. I was so surprised on how much they knew as well. Their tanks seem taken care of well. I would for sure go to them again. Thank you so much for being so friendly! read more

Three Little Fish - Clownfish - Professional Services Near Me - Lancaster, California

Awful customer service, worker was very rude and disrespectful and made me feel stupid. Can't ask questions without being heavily disregarded. Do not recommend, rather drive an hour out to the valley to go to a different store than come back here. Aquatic life also did not look healthy, I still bought fish regardless of my experience and it ended up having ich. Should've just walked out. Be very cautious of this place read more

Unfortunately my 20 gallon fish tank broke... I needed a fish tank ASAP. I went to Three Little Fish and they had a variety of fish tanks to choose from. They provided me with great information. I even ended up with two more fishes since they have an entire lot full of Salt and fresh water fishes. Their customer service was great! read more

Three Little Fish - My new fish tank! - Professional Services Near Me - Lancaster, California

I love this pet store!!! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I'm always greeted when I arrive and they are always willing to help. The store is clean and well organized and all of the tanks and habitats are well taken care of. They have a huge supply of fresh and saltwater fish, coral, anemones, lobsters and live plants. If they don't have what you are looking for in stock, they will order it for you. Their prices are reasonable and better than the big box stores. This is my go to store for all my aquarium, arachnid and amphibian needs! read more

Been here a few times. They have a good number of tanks but never have the fish I'm hunting for. The tanks don't look as healthy or as stocked as I'd expect from a LFS. They do carry most of the equipment you'd expect to find at the LFS. However, the selection isn't much. The employee doesn't check on patrons so if you need fish you may have to hunt for the employee. I was in the store for 15 minutes and was never checked on. There is a small parking lot in front of the store with free parking. read more

This family owned business is humorous to say the least. I understand you're in the business of making money, but trying to justify a problem/issue with the poor quality of fish he sales by blaming the customer for having "toxic" water in order to avoid responsibility is just flat out lame. Specially when "toxic" is defined and determined by them. I appreciate the lecture, Javier, as I'm sure the rest of your clients/victims would agree. Word of advise, instead of putting the responsibility on you clients, maybe you should do a better job at screening your supplier. Anyway, I bought 5 fish (neon tetras) one died before morning. I called and asked about their return policy. I was told 24 hrs, but they require you bring a sample of your tank water (to criticize) in order to explain that if the water has any amount of ammonia, nitrates, etc; they are not liable. The other 4 fish I bought are alive and thriving. My advise to you; adopt the "customer is right" business mentality and do what's right for your customers or risk loosing any more return business. I WILL NOT BE bringing my business back to this place on the mere principle--$2.99 just cost you a lifetime customer. Wish you the best of luck Javier and fam. read more

Three Little Fish - Neon tetra (that's not ick on it's tail according to Javier). - Professional Services Near Me - Lancaster, California

Hamsters had no water, looked like it hadn't been filled in days. They were all thirsty. Barely had food , their enclosures were dirty. Employees Doesn't seem to care that the animals had no water ... some of the bird cages also looked like they weren't maintained well. read more

This pet store is our favorite place to purchase fish. A couple months ago my daughter purchased a tank & fish from another pet store. Within a couple days some of her fish died. We stumbled upon "Three Little Fish" & let me tell you we are so happy we did. Not only do they have great customer service they are knowledgeable. They take time to answer our questions & help us pick out our fish. They are honest & they don't try to sell us something. We are in there probably every other week (they recognize us now. Lol) read more

This place has a decent selection of fish but definitely needs some TLC. There are wires and stuff just hanging from the ceiling. So far I've never had a problem with any fish I've purchased here so that's great! read more

Nice clean tanks with a good selection of fish. Saw an Emperor Angelfish, which I haven't seen in any other fish store. Beautiful fish! Seems like they have more freshwater selection then salt water. They have tubs of bigger koi fish on the other side along with a cute bird that'll greet you with a hello when you venture over there. Also, the prices are definitely reasonable. You're paying for high quality fish, rather then at Petco or pet smart where their fish are covered in ich. You go to any other fish store & it's about the same price if not more. read more

Fish are way over priced! Have been given poor advice before! Don't recommend shopping here! It's worth the drive to LA way better fish for cheaper! read more

I've been here a few times and I've mostly dealt with an older lady and a young girl. Both have been very knowledgeable and helpful. During my visit customers kept coming in and it was tough for one person to help them all immediately. I dealt with a young man once and he was a little less enthusiastic and knowledgeable compared to the ladies. They have a fairly large assortment of fresh and SALT water fish and equipment, considering that there doesn't seem to be a high demand for salt water fish in the Antelope Valley. The tanks seem very clean and they always have different fish every time I visit. If they don't have it in stock, they order it for me. Sometimes the wait time for ordered takes a while, but they arrive sooner than later. If you're a fish enthusiast, give them a visit and enter with an open mind ;) read more

I looked online to see what time this store was open until on this day. When I looked on Google maps it said that three little fish was due to Close at 7 PM. So I arrived at 6:30 PM to see what their fish inventory looked like. Upon entry I was asked if I needed help and I replied that I was just looking to see what type of fish were currently for sale. The owners immediate response was that they were closed, so I said oh online it said that you guys close at 7pm. So I then went out and got in my car proceeded to drive off when I noticed a Hispanic gentleman and his young children enter the store. So I waited a couple minutes then decided to go back into the store and record as I entered to see if she was letting this gentleman and his children shop right after refusing me the ability to do so! Indeed the owner was letting this gentleman and his family browse and shop in her store. I then went on to ask why she was letting them shop but turning me away, the owner could give me no clear explanation as to why this had happened. I felt discriminated against and denied my right to shop in her store. read more

I have a blue tang almost 17 years old so I have a older system and I have found everything in this store to keep my tank up and running I have had to go to Van Nuys until now. The owner is a wonderful helpful. If you have salt water fish this is the place to go! read more

This is a real treasure for the area. Excellent selection of healthy freshwater fish, and some rare ones. Great corals from frags to very large, very nice saltwater fish, and beautiful parakeets. Fair prices. A real boon to fish keepers nearby. read more

Super friendly staff! Very knowledgeable. Pricing is not bad at all and the store is clean. Would buy fish from here again :) a lot better than the help or fish you'd get from pet smart. Recommend this place for sure! read more

Horrible customer service here, these ladies are rude, their shop is extremely dirty, theres fish food all over the floor, bird food all over the floor, they don't give you a contract for your fish. Unprofessional people. They do not give any explanation for your fish. Do not recomend coming here at all! read more

Place is nice. Clean tanks. I have dealt with 3 people there and so far they have been very helpful. Will be go going back.

We have had nothing but a great rapport with them. They are very knowledgeable and our two clown fish are thriving in our sea anemone. We have ordered several items and have been completely satisfied.We are happy to have them in the AV. read more

I've purchased several products to include freshwater fish from this place and I've never had a bad experience with them. They offer both fresh and salt water for you to purchase for your home aquariums as well. The prices? Fairly decent and the staff always appears more knowledgeable than your local PetSmart and Petco in my opinion. I am no expert so you can either read this review for what I believe it is worth or disregard it. Point is from my eyes, this is a great place to purchase your next fish tank, fish, or reptile even. read more

If you have children please dont bring them. I have an 11 year old a 5 year old and a 4 year old all did extremely well in school so i promised them 3 a fish for each we even joke on our way there that they are my 3 little fishes and that they would all get 1 my oldest found a little lobster but my 2 little guys were taking longer being that they saw salt water fishes they had their heart set on those but we have a fresh water tank i felt so pressured by the wife of the owner as she keep saying are you done? are you done? The younger employee who i believe is the son was extremely nice and helpful he didn't make us feel bad at all and offer us the sale they had going on explain to my kids that the fishes that they finally wanted were sick and were separate to be treated and just overall nice young man however the owners wife went out of her way to make us feel unwelcome my kids hear her say we need to hurry up so i told my kiddo please hurry and pick 1 for each and she keep telling us she wanted us out cause she wanted other customers p.s no one was outside waiting after feeling pressured and seeing my kids cry cause they were being kicked out i told her that it wasn't ok she began to scram at me and my kids and we left the young man apologize for her actions and i walked away as i was in the car i went back and asked her name or the mangers in which she said she was the wife and that she was on the phone with him i tired to tell her husband what happened but she stoped me and told me to get out her husband seems like he wanted to help the situation but she told me get out your not welcome here and well i walked away cause honestly she was childish please look at other locations i moved from the San Fernando Valley and we were customers of Rainbow Aquarium and Pond check them out its a drive but they have amazing fishes and their staff is AMAZING they text you coupons and deals not to mention the owner is EXTREMELY helpful and friendly they also give you warranty on their fishes read more

Since this is the only "real" tropical fish store in lancaster, me and my bf decided to check it out since he had a 10 gallon tank with everything for it laying around. so we went in, HUGE selection of fish and always changing. Of course the decor and grave,etc, are a bit pricey. the fish can vary as well. So we looked and looked and decided to get 3 shubunkins and a chocolate pleco. i was a little hesitant getting a fish out of their smaller tanks so i went with the shu's that had been mixed with the other koi in the backroom in a bigger pool. But none the less. they are happy, healthy and active. The employees are nice but i wouldn't completely trust them with recommendations. defiantly do your research first!! nice shop though :) read more

This WAS my go to store. Lately the selection had been very slim. One day while shopping I inquired about a fish I had never seen before. The girl working told me the price was $40 for it and OFFERED to hold it for me til the following Sunday. I returned that Sunday after scrounging up the money. I really wanted this fish. When I returned, the same girl who held it for me was there. Right before putting the fish in the bag she decided to make a phone call. All of a sudden the fish was now $300. I couldn't believe it. They don't even have anything in there at that price point! There were fish much bigger than that for less than half the price. I felt discriminated against. Luckily, a friend of mine heard about my situation and actually bought me the same fish (though much smaller) for around $15 at PetSmart. Needless to say I will NOT be going back and neither will my friends and fellow fish enthusiasts. Blue Acara..... read more

Do not recommend. Worst customer service and they all have an attitude. I feel like one star is giving them way too much credit

We walked into this shop and it was clean and the staff was friendly!! They have a great selection at very reasonable prices!! Will definitely be returning customers! read more

Seems like everything is overpriced- they are quite knowledgeable however it seems they are only in it for their convenience and to get money . Went in for some cleaner shrimp and some anemone and they were very rude about when I asked them to get one / if they had one . And for the anemone they acted like it was mission impossible to show me one and said they all kill clownfish except one specific kind which was conveniently $149, or so they said after asking each other 10+ times what kind it was . Comes to getting a shrimp and they wouldn't even check for one . There was one in a bigger tank and the lady ( I'm assuming owner ) wouldn't even make an effort to get it and told me to come back another day and wait because maybe they ordered more maybe they didn't they never know ‍ which is a lie - you know what you ordered . And on top of it the whole time she was talking crap in Spanish assuming I could t understand her . After about 40 minutes of being ignored and handed off to other employees I left and told them I would go go to another and they hit extremely offended . Not a good environment . read more

Really like coming here. I have a new 20 gallon freshwater tank that I just stocked with killifish and dumbo guppies, it was a great adventure waiting for it to cycle so I could come pick out fish. I'm going back soon for some more. I also have a 110 gallon tank ,that I keep with siver dollars that I got here as babies. As of recently I've gotten into birds and saw one that's very cute there. So you can say that they have more than just fish. They have reptiles as well, and pretty much anything else you need. read more

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE....Don't come here, the people are rude, the place is dirty and you can tell the people working there know nothing about fish. After not being helped at all, we went up to the register to pay and the lady gave us the total...when my fiancé showed his military ID for a discount, she rolled her eyes and slammed the cash register closed to re calculate the total. Don't waste your time or money here.. but if you do, at least you'll be rescuing fish or coral from a bad place. To the workers there: work on your customer service skills....you're not getting anywhere with that attitude. read more

It's a big no. For one their fish are over priced and unhealthy. I stocked my fish tank with fish from this store exclusively and a majority of them died even though my water levels were perfect. I somehow got a snail in my tank even though I never purchased a snail read more
