Wasn't impressed with this fish shop at all. Firstly I am a dog lover but didn't appreciate the dog following me and tripping me up. Secondly the tanks were all bare bottom which is terrible for the fish. Thirdly when doing water changes you don't leave huge hoses and water all over the place for people to slip and trip during business hours. I realise it has to be done but don't just leave the mess there. It's not as if they were busy. I was the only one in the store. Much better going down the road to Seaview. Better assortment of fish, food and service.

Been in 3 times and not once has anyone asked if we need a hand or offered us help. They're too busy looking at pictures on their phones and chatting amongst each other to bother to say hi. 2 out of the 3 times they've been out of the fish we were after and when we enquired as to when they'd be in, they said they didn't know and left it at that. Could have offered to give us a call, or even an approximate date. The only reason it's 2 stars is because they're fish are cheap and decently looked after.

  • Ado Rohn

No communication. Reads messages without a response. Bad service. Not the best thing when your the biggest smuggler of exotic and noxious pest species in the country and thinking about your wallet and gold wrist chain instead of our environment and laws. Un Australian, particularly with what’s going on in the world at present.

  • Matt Ireland

Absolutely amazing selection of fish for sale, there personal collection of fish on view is out of this world. The staff are super friendly and helpful, with there passion and knowledge showing in full force. Highly recommend stopping in for a look at ur future pets, disappointment isnt associated with this fish shop.

This shop is one of the kind. It’s the best fish shop in the hole world. You will never find better fish the then the great Amazon. He has all sorts of rang of fish. Best customer service. Fish are in amazing health and the water quality is top notch. Just come and visit and you will know what I mean …

Your staffy bit my partner twice and ripped her jumper within 2 minutes of entering the store, bruise on her leg and a cut on her arm.. not everyone is okay with dogs and it’s really unprofessional to have it roaming the store.. if it did that to a child things would be very different..

  • Ben Holmes

What a shop, an aquarium enthusiasts dream. This shop is on another level, the variety of fish they have is amazing. And they also have large aquariums available that you won't see at any other aquarium shop in Adelaide. Very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff aswell.

  • Bec Scanlon

This place should be a tourist spot for sa, the amount of work that has gone into the tank set ups is incredible. These guys know there stuff, im only very much a nivice and was only buying fish food but the young lad was freindly and helpful and his tanks are breathtaking.

  • Cheryll Sexy

They have nearly all kinds of fish even rare ones. You are assured the fish are of good quality and the price is reasonable. The owner and staff are very helpful and friendly. Bought jardini, lots of discus and all our fish food and some fish tank materials.

  • vy khánh

Love this place, I bought many fishes from here, they have beautiful set up and wide range of fish with affordable price. The greeting puppy is absolutely adorable, with those people who complain about the dog, I think you guys just need to

  • Lola Nicholls

The dog they let free roam is friendly for a dog person but I can see for a non dog person she could be a little overwhelming, especially if she grips on to article of clothing. The variety of fish and driftwood is great, but the owner was

  • EVIL ROBOTSANTA

WOW No frills just great prices and great advice from all the staff. I have recently found this store to be one of the best in Adelaide. They don’t keep you waiting around for service. I will make this place my regular from now on

  • Dylan Kerrison

Great prices on fish and range that is hard to find in other places. Some fish are almost hlf the price of other aquarium shops. This is almost my first stop. I only wish they had a larger selection and store to browse.

  • Tantulas Gaming

Upon entering the shop my scarf was pulled by a dog (probably the owners) this dog persisted as I walked around the shop shewing on my shoe laces and pulling on my items of clothing. will not come again.

  • Nohx Is on centre link

  • space kitty

horrible, the fish are diseased with their gills literally falling off and faces caved in. This place needs to be shut down. disgusting lack of care for the poor fish that clearly need to euthanized

Top guy, best price by far and very friendly staff. Very large selection of aquatic life and always very healthy. Would recommend this over any aquarium shop, especially over Seaview aquariums.

  • On Country Business

Over $200 spent on products, but they never arrived. No response after several attempts to reach out via phone, email, and their online form. The staff have now responded and shipped the items.

Not a nice vibe, strong stagnant water smell, tanks were not clean. Big fish kept in small tanks. Tanks with fish were bare and not nice for the fish. Will not shop there personally
