I highly recommend this Aquatic store. Huge verity of fish and coral.. staff that knows what they are doing. This place has a real mom and pop feel to it. The owner works as hard as his employees and it shows. Been going here for years and at this point its the only place we trust. Not only are the employees enthusiast they are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. If you cant find what your looking for talk to an employee.. they will try to get whatever your looking for. This is the first store we think of for any and all of our Aquatic needs. Best in Vegas for sure! Highly recommend....!

This was our second time at Lance's. The fish we purchased the previous visit were all very healthy and have thrived, didn't lose a single one(8 months or so ago). So we came back when we decided to add a few more species to our tank. They are very knowledgeable. The store is small, but it's because they pack such a variety in to choose from. I won't bother shopping anywhere else for my fish.

  • Jaybriel Akoi

Owner is a little weird. His worker is a little weird. The store is a little cluttered. Ya there is some algae. The selection for such a small store is pretty good. Much better than stores that got twice the tanks. Just saying. So when you go in don't get turned off by the owner being eccentric he's just a weird guy. But if you're into fish at all you know fish people are kinda weird.

  • Hellmaster_vs_kitty

To many fish are in bad shape because of poor water quality very difficult to navigate with young kids..... Price's are kinda high for the fish being skinny and beat up, the owner was so busy schooling me about fish I have raised for 30 years that he got my order wrong also nice guy but you can tell he's lost the drive to put extra effort in or higher an employee

  • Maria Jacobi

I needed a new tank for my son and I found the best price tank at Lances Aquarium. the owner is very knowledgeable of his trade of fish. He can answer questions about fishes. Great service and my son was educated on about his fish. My son bought rainbow fish and this store has a great selection of live plants. Support small business!

  • Alicia Williams

Lance has over 30 years dealing with salt and fresh water fish. He will answer any questions and tell you stories too. That is why I like small businesses. Prices are also fair. Of note, he will only sell healthy fish from reputable dealers. There is also drift wood, hard scape, and everything else you need to set up a fish tank.

  • Myra Tyler

Lance is very knowledgeable. I called him for advice and he hit the fish on the head and it was helpful for my situation. I live on LA but when I go to visit family, I stop by to harass Lance. We laugh. Please support his shop. YeH his shop is crowded but after 30 plus, it makes sense. As long as he knows where things are.

  • Jordyn H

This place is very sad the fish are jailed. it’s cluttered crowded the tanks are horrible they are not clean very disgusting. I felt so bad for the fish. this needs to be a violation and a fire hazard because this place is unacceptable smh. Needs to be shut down all the way down and never opened again.

  • William

Today was my first time in this place. I liked so much. There were 2 workers and both were very kind, I think these guys have a lot experience and knowledge about. The only thing that I think they should be improved is the space, they need a bigger space because they have to many equipment for sale.

  • Tracy M

Love coming to the store he is very knowledgeable and passionate about his fish .. wants to make sure that you're doing everything right for the fish. The shop is small, the dog is very sweet And the fish seemed cared for. These are just three of the fish I got from this store..

  • Ruth Hudson

I guess I can leave a review now. I bought some fish 2 years ago from Lance’s Aquarium and the fish are still alive, thriving and beautiful. Lance & staff know their fish. I highly recommend this place. If you are new to fish Lance will help you pick the right fish for you.

  • J Pokakaa

The owner rubbed me the wrong way at first but when he heard I was setting up a big tank, he was a bit nicer. The store it tiny and packed. His tanks are dirty. Even a fish I wanted looked like it had algae all over it. There seem like too

  • Kai and Mike Fishing Frueh

Lance is a walking fountain of fish knowledge!! I've been doing fish my whole life, and I'm certain he's forgotten more than I will ever know!! Lol. It may look a bit jumbled walking in, but Lance has most of what you're looking for in the

I called to ask a question, I said I would be there in 12 minutes, stores closes in 40 minutes. He rudely rushed me & then said “unbelievable” as he hung up, I called back to ask him if he was referring to me with that rude comment, again

  • Connor S.

This place was about a 3 out of 5 off the bat. What sets it apart is the terrible attitude of the employees. The place smelled bad, the workers stared and were unhelpful, and there were multiple dead fish in almost every tank. I browsed,

Loved coming to this shop. Such a fun variety of fish and Lance is just the sweetest. You can tell he has such a passion for what he does. The staff is very sweet and they’re so knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend a visit!

  • emily doughty

The moment I walked in Lance greated me and asked if I needed help. Lance was very helpful and knowledgeable. He was able to answer all of my question and help me get treatment for a bach of sick fish I got in.
