A bit pricey when fish are not on sale. Also they should quarantine fish before they sell them. I bought 5 platties and only 3 of them lived till the end of the week. I think their dead fish return policy only goes till 48 hours.

The Blondie lady new manager she took Jasmine position. She just have very bad attitude. I spend 1000s on this store when I try to buy a fish she told me we cannot promise to give you this fish because it’s hard to catch it … (what can executors is that? )… You cannot even catch the fish while you’re working on this store but I ask her I need pacifically this fish and cheeky answers the same way same attitude. This is just bad for this store. They need to look into it for the new teenagers workers. I hope they will find better workers and better idea to treat the customer by the way, I’m very old customer for the store but I guess they don’t care 😡😡😡👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

Great selection of fish, prices are extremely excessive, and service is terrible due to lack of staff. Almost 20 minutes spent just trying to get someone to assist in purchasing fish. Should reconsider their business plan because this was just awful experience

Disappointed. Went to look at saltwater selection while I was in town. Freshwater side looks nice and have a lot of fish to choose from. They do have a large variety of saltwater fish too but prices were way to high and the tanks were not well maintained (poor fish). They have almost no coral selection.

I am so so happy that my friend referred me here for help with my fish tank. I went on vacation and returned to an extremely green and foggy tank. My fish are like my babies lol So I was so sad and concerned..when I got to the store the associate knew exactly what I needed for my tank. It was an over growth of algae for leaving my light on! He was able to explain how I use the product and the warning of "overuse" that could kill my fish. So I took it very seriously. Here is before and after pictures. We are a week from when I started the algae killer, and my fish are safe and my tank is almost back to full health.
Thank you aquarium adventure!!

Great selection, very helpful and knowledgeable employees. I was helped by a guy named Brian. He was super helpful and a very nice person.

Prices on accessories decor are a little high, but sales are usually really good! The only thing was people just go ahead and stick their hands in the plant tanks… but Brian was helping me and he sternly asked her not to do that which she acted like she didn’t hear of course but stopped lol 😆 Thanks for all your help Brian!! My fish and plants are doing awesome!

I would recommend.

Not what it used to be.
I have been buying fish for about a year and I've had a decent amount of problems with the fish I have bought for the last couple months. I bought fish tonight and one was dead before I got home. Also I was supposed to get 2 big Cory's and not what I got. The big one is beat up and hopefully he makes it. I'm not returning the dead cardinal tetra because of gas prices. By the time I drive all the way back it would cost me more. Also there was a sick or dead fish in almost every tank.

I have been to a lot of fish stores. This one is the best I've ever been to. There are so many fish here and so many display tanks. Plenty of options for hardscape. They also have so many plants. It is my favorite store in the Chicago area. I will definitely come back and buy more plants and check out their fish. If you can make it to the store I would check it out.
