Sold us sick fish. They only give 24 hours warranty where everywhere else 3-7 days. We bought 3 of $30 gold fish total almost $100 we spent for our 5 yr son. But one died in a day and a half, another one died in the second day. The third one is not sure will make it. Heartbreaking for the kid. Will not go back there.

I gave it 2 stars because the fish are alive. My first experience had me in awe until it was time to interact with the staff. I spoke to a gentleman and he promptly walked down the next isle. I proceeded to walk after him so that I could get some assistance. Anywho I left satisfied with my fish. My second visit was about the same, the guy behind the counter did not want to talk to me 🤣 So the young lady assisted me. When I got home I noticed there was only 1 algae eater, so I called the store a few times … (drumroll)…No one answered. I’ll just cut my losses and leave this place alone.

Very strong knowledge of fresh and saltwater fish. Fresh water tropical are in line. Their saltwater line is truly gorgeous but horribly expensive but maybe all saltwater water are now. The quality is truly exceptional. Not sure how supplies, tanks or ornaments stake up as I get supplies and ornament on line at sales time. Staff is knowledgeable and helpful

A very good fish store. every time I have a problem, they help me with trying to sell my stuff, and it seems like the staff really care. And all the fish I bought have been quite healthy.

One of the very best aquarium shops in Southeast Michigan! I've been coming here since I was a boy...they went out of their way to help me set up my first saltwater tank at 11-12 years old in the mid 1990's. Always a great selection, high quality livestock, and knowledgeable and friendly staff. Highly recommended!

I just set up my fish tank at my new place and was looking for a new pet shop to check out. Ya know, get a few fish to pop the cycling of my tank water.

When I rolled up to this place I was thinking this place is gonna suck. Tiny store front in the corner of a strip mall. Not much to look at from the outside.

Well let me tell you, this place has one of the best selection of fresh water fish/plants I have seen in a long time! Oh, and they have salt water too. But I don’t have my 75 gallon bow-front salt water tank anymore sadly.

I won’t bore you with a detailed description of each and every fish, in each and every tank. Nor which fish I selected. I’ll just let a few pics I took give you a teaser of what to expect when you check it out. Which u should.

Oh, and the moral of the story here is don’t judge a book by its cover. The store front of a Pet Smart is real huge and fancy. But most only have like 20 fish tanks with some that are empty….

Great selection of fish and plants for great prices. I bought a pair of sparkling gouramis awhile ago and they are doing great in my planted tank. I also bought some rotala rotundufolia 'indica' clippings which had a really good price in my opinion, (a large bunch for about $2 was enough to grow a small forest in my tank without any fertilizer or CO2. I read some reviews about rude staff and both times when I went there was a redhead girl working who wasn't rude at all and and got me the things I wanted to buy. Only things I would change is the Axolotl tank that was advertised looked too small in my opinion. I saw many of the reviews were replied to by the owner, and I was wondering if you sell any white cloud minnows or bladder snails. I was thinking about buying a tank for a school of the white clouds and maybe try to breed them. This is currently my favorite fish store in my area and I do recommend checking it out to anyone who is curious.
