    First thing I saw was a sticker on the door advising Concealed Carry weapons were welcome in the store. Second thing I saw was a TV blaring Fox News. The store is a bit dirty, but the tanks are pretty clean and the stock appears to be healthy. There is a minimum of equipment available, mostly just fish with a handful of inverts and a few tanks. The grunt at the desk said hello and then immediately dismissed me and never looked up again from what he was doing. The overall vibe is "get what you want and get out." Not a welcoming place and I don't plan to return.

    We decided to jump into the world of salt water aquariums and took a chance with shopping local at Rob's Aquatics. It's been about 10 months now and with the advice and expertise of Rob, our saltwater tank has flourished wonderfully. Rob's offers great pricing on water, livestock, supplies, and rocks. The quality of each has not left us disappointed, and we will continue to shop with Rob as our tank becomes more and more lively.

    Just bought my new reef tank today! Rob and Justin hooked me up with everything I needed! These guys have tons of knowledge and the tools to help anyone with any type of aquarium set up. Jeremy Henrichsen referred me, he helped set up my tank and maintains my tank on a regular basis. If I could give them 6 stars I would!

    I’ve been in the salt water hobby for about seven years now and majority of the time I’ve been hustled by many, not telling me the true facts so you can have a stable salt water tank and healthy fishes/corals. Ive spent thousands of dollars repeating the same mistakes that many do. Not realizing the problem you'd at one point wither give up or slowly not care anymore. Luckily, I had a turn around for the better! Thanks to “ROBS AQUATICS” Ive been finally recommended to the right man! Local too!! Let me tell you Rob and his worker are amazing people I was willing to spend big money all over again and be just as happy as I did on day 1 seven years ago. My salt water fish only tank is finally almost complete with everything i always wanted and the best part is I can say for the fist time in 7years I can truly say WOW my fishes are happy and eating like CHAMPS!!!! Rob will tell you exactly what you need to do to get your tank up and running and better then ever! JUST REMEMBER DO EXACTLY WHAT HE SAYS AND HAVE PATIENTS AND I PROMISE IF U TELL HIM EXACTLY EVERYTHING YOU HAVE IN THE TANK AND THE SET UP HE WILL FIX YOU RIGHT UP AND IN NO TIME. P.S Crazy thing is I was referred to ROBS AQUATICS by another totally different worker at a another fish store. The person was like you are honestly go to robs you are a really good price go to robs he even said with my discount it will still be cheaper to get fishes by Robs Aquatics I mean if that’s not loyalty then I don’t know what is lol.

Now aquatica I've been visited maybe 4 times and it always reminds me of a high end reef shop almost like what you find on the north side of the city. Its definitely clean and well-organized and does hav...
