    Buyer beware!! First visit to this shop and had a chat with one of the owners and discussed my tank and parameters looked at some corals and was advised to take a Clove Polyp coral. Didn’t pay to much for it approximately $50. However the coral once I got it home never opened up after a few days I called in and was advised to try moving it to a different spot in the tank and so that’s what I did. Keep in mind this isn’t the only coral in my tank. And everyone of the others are happy and vibrant. See picture! But still noting in fact it started looking like it was rotting so I called again and was told to bring it in and they would look after me. So I made the drive and when I got there I was attacked by the owner and his wife. They wanted to charge me to test my water then started making comments and excuses and what not. That’s when I decided it wasn’t worth my time and so I said either do the right thing and replace it or I will share my experience. And so here it is. If you want my opinion avoid this place and go somewhere where they put there customers first. What a shame.

    Amazing staff who love and genuinely care for their fish, the place is spotless! They were incredibly helpful in giving us supplies and tips for setting up our very first tank! Very knowledgeable and reliable, and most of all the creatures in their care are not just stock to them, they genuinely care about the marine creatures' quality of life! Highly recommend!

    I went in search to start my Saltwater aquarium, I visited every shop in our vicinity and met some great people accompanied buy some really nice set ups but!!! Nothing compared to the range of live stock, products & cleanliness of this shop. Not to mention the knowledge, passion and customer support that is second to none! If you are ready to start an aquarium or looking for that one fish/coral please go speak to Andy and the team, you will not regret it 👍

    Freshwater fish and plant collection is rather limited. Quite a few driftwoods but almost no rocks. But the saltwater collection is great. I love how all the tanks are extremely clean, fish all swim happily. I also really really like how each species is clearly labelled with their ideal water conditions like PH, KH, etc. This is super helpful and I'm surprised none other stores do the same. Oh and the staff made me feel very welcome.

    Bought my gorgeous angel and 2 x cory's here and they are absolutely thriving, fantastic fish and so healthy. I also got some guppys which lasted a while too but guppys don't like me 🤣 Going to go back for more angels, their tanks have huge ones! 😍 Awesome store, prices for food and accessories are fantastic here too! Highly recommend!

    Andy and the team have been so welcoming. Always a smile on their faces when my family and I enter. A Fantastic operation with great quality live stock and knowledge that expands beyond the tank. Always a pleasure driving from reservoir to see you guys. Keep up the great work.

    Feels like coming to visit old friends every time I come to visit - (which is admittedly quite often) I’m always greeted with a smile and questions about how my fish are doing, and some friendly banter, These guys actually care about their customers and their fish even after they leave the premises, I think by this point in the hobby I have been in every aquarium in Melbourne and Fishworld is hands down the best, cleanest and friendliest… you can’t go wrong here!!!

    Seriously, first time I’ve been here and I will be back, it’s now my go-to spot. There display tanks are STUNNING! Everything was so well taken care of! I could spend hours in there looking at all the tanks! Not only did all of the staff greet us when we got there, everyone was so nice the whole time we were inside too! I felt so welcomed in the store! Helped us pack up our clowns in a box to help the get home safely from the four hour journey! Not only that, they checked in with me about my tank, asked me some questions! Everyone was so lovely, I can’t wait to visit again! Not only that, my clowns are so beautiful and happy and loving their new home! 100/10 😊😊

    I were at the shop to purchase some gold fishs for my daughter birthday. Once the lady know that we don't have a fish tank, then she told my son to lower down the voice and not touch the fish tank. She asked us to get out because she want have more people in the shop. We were there following the social distance rule. If you do care about the rules, you should not left that many customers get into the shop at the same time. My son has autism, not he intentionly talking. He just get excited about the fishes. Your attitude is examly rude. (Please note, I did edit my review, just want to give more details of what happened on the day. My son only touched the fish tank, once you told us off, he stopped. This was happened before second lockdown. What do you mean i dragged my autism son into this. You might not be a mum yet, if you are, you will understand how hard it is. If you don't want kids in the store, you should put a sign outside. This store is not kids friendly)

    We'll set up little store with plenty of staff and very clean we'll maintained tanks! A good range of accessories. But is catered more towards salt water fishkeeping! They have a limited amount of fresh water stock and very little amount of scaping options for such tanks also! Apart from that it's a nice store and worth a visit if you're near by!

  • 5/5 peter f. 7 months ago on Google • 5 reviews
    Andy and the team are always friendly and happy to answer any questions. I drive across town to come and see what’s new, as there is always a fantastic variety on hand. All livestock I’ve purchased from here has always acclimated nicely to my tank and each one has been happy and healthy.

    I cannot rate Andy & Leanne's business & customer service highly enough. This is my number one place to shop due to their exceptionally high standards & integrity. Their shop and fish tanks are maintained with such high standards and are in pristine condition. You know you are getting top quality when you buy from them. Thank you Andy & Leanne its a pleasure supporting such wonderful small businesses like you who really care about their customers.

    Very arrogant, rude and unprofessional attitude from one of the workers. After asking for frozen fish food to be wrapped in extra paper i was met with horrible customer service and was told that if i didnt like it i could have my money back. Never been treated so poorly and ive been coming here 10+ years.

    It's deferentially the best fish shop in Melbourne. Not only they have a wide range of live stocks and accessories, but also very knowledgeable and helpful. Andy is a very nice person and he helped me a lot in setting up my first fresh water and salt water tanks, I won't forget his support. Prices are reasonable, and you'll get the best service from this shop.

    Couldn't speak more highly of the staff at Fish World! My husband has had some PH issues with his tank & they have gone above and beyond to help him sort it out. Even emailing after hours to check in with how it is all going & offering to help him with his unwell fish if needed. Massive thank you to the amazing staff at Fish World, you guys are fantastic!

    From the first time we walked in, Andy was there, helpful, knowledgeable and super friendly. Every time I’ve stopped by or called or asked for any sort of assistance with an issue we are having, Andy went out of his way to assist and offer the best advise. We really appreciate the service Andy, his wife and staff have provided. We cannot wait to purchase some of the amazing stock they have in store once we are able to.

    Been coming here for a while, so should probably write a review. Andy, Leanne and the crew are all friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. The shop is boutique clean, the fish and corals are all healthy, and the dry goods and livestock and pretty well priced. Always a pleasure to visit :)

    Andy and Leanne are the best!! Such a great store with so much advice and help given to us starting out with our new marine tank. Every time we come in we are welcomed warmly and it has such a nice community feel. Tanks in store are pristine, great variety of fish and corals. We have closer aquariums but travel to this store as it’s impressed us so much! They go above and beyond with advice on Facebook and outside of hours. Great social media presence with weekly updates on fish deliveries.

  • 5/5 Sandy N. 2 years ago on Google
    I have recently changed aquariums and have been dealing with Andy at fish world aquarium .My reef tank had nothing but problems with my fish and coral dying. Instead of selling additives Andy started at the start with simple water testing and advise to get it sorted .My tank has gone from a disaster to looking absolutely amazing. I haven’t lost any fish and my coral is thriving .Andy and the team know what their talking about and are happy to offer advice without selling you expensive products that don’t work .I highly recommend Fish world Aquarium .

    What an amazing store. the staff are very helpful and very knowledgeable. when you walk in for the 1st time you are met with a friendly Andy who is always ready to say hi and help. I have been to many LFS and this is one place where they are always ready to help, than make you spend money. I do like the how can I help attitude. This store is very clean and they do follow covid protocols.

  • 5/5 Amel M. 2 years ago on Google
    I visited this Aquarium over the weekend. I must say the customer service was 10/10. All my questions had been answered and I didn't feel rushed. The products inside the store are also premium quality. Best Aquarium I have been to! HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!

  • 5/5 Carl G. 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely the best & most friendliest staff out of all other aquariums, there marine fish are always plentiful & they always have different species that no other aquarium would have , there tanks are always kept clean marine/fresh water, the go to aquarium 110% , they always go out of there way to help you out...... customer service above & beyond

  • 5/5 Nidhi S. 2 years ago on Google
    First and foremost I am totally new to aquariums and taking care of beautiful fishes. I recently got a tank and the other fish shop stuffed it all up. Staff had minimal to none knowledge and they never wanted to help if there was something wrong with the water in the tank. All they said was buy this medicine and that. And honestly it poisoned the whole tank and 3 of our fishes died. Then I contacted fish world aquarium and I'm so lucky I spoke with Andy and he without any hesitation helped me straight away over the phone and asked me to send the video and photos of the tank as well as fishes. And mind you I never shopped there before still he helped me. That's someone with a passion towards the marine life. For Andy these little swimming friends are life not a money making thing. He loves what he is doing and even after hours he remembers you and your tank issues and if you need any help he is available to help but keeping in mind he has a young family too. His staff is equally trained and well informed with the whole process but if they cant help then Andy is always there as he is more experienced and he is been in the business from last 17years. As a small business the quantity and quality of product is excellent. So I personally recommend him over anyone out there in the market. I have tried and tested few shops but cant fail them at all. Please help the small businesses like Andy's so that he can help you all without you wasting your money with people who have no experience and knowledge.

    There is so much to learn on the go in the reef keeping hobby. You can tell as soon as you walk in the door that Fish World Aquarium's team are genuinely there to guide you through it. Massive selection of new fish each week at great prices. Very friendly staff and importantly they don't try to sell you stuff you don't need (or don't need yet). I've nearly filled my tank with their fish. I can't wait to fill it with their coral too!

  • 5/5 Belinda O. 2 years ago on Google
    Andy and the whole team at Fishworld Aquarium are amazing! Their advice, guidance and ongoing support cannot be faulted!!

    One of the best aquarium store in Melbourne. Huge collection of marine fishes and corals. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Specially Andy is awesome. Keep us the good work guys.

  • 5/5 Sara X. 2 years ago on Google
    Highly recommend Fish World Aquarium. Andy and his team are very friendly and professional. I recently start a marine tank Evo 13.5, I purchased everything I need from Fish World Aquarium. I am beginner and Andy even reply to my enquiry late night which make me feel he loves what he is doing. He becomes my aquarium mentor. When he loves aquarium, he will keep his live stock in a good condition. Before I set up my new tank, I was visiting different aquarium shops around eastern south suburb. Fish World Aquarium is one of the most clean and tidy aquarium. Surely you want to purchase live fish or coral from a clean place. Display water tank are crystal clean. He has huge variety of Marine and fresh water fishes. Location of Fish World are super easy to access. Jump to Eastlink, get off free way, do a U turn. It is easier than accessing to your location Supermarket. I am lucky and appreciate that I could start my hobby with Fish World Aquarium.

  • 5/5 Craig van T. 2 years ago on Google
    I have canvased many LFS across Melbourne but this business stands out very clearly for me. For saltwater you cannot go wrong visiting this quality, conscientious and caring shop that places tank inhabitants first . Of most value are the staff. Hang around to speak to Andy when a quiet patch hits at this popular supplier - but all staff here are dedicated professionals. A very quick perusal of the tanks and the health of its inhabitants will reassure even the most ardent of hobbyists. After-sale support is exemplary. I firmly place this business at the leading edge of creating an idyllic environment for fish, something we all strive for.

  • 5/5 Cathleen H. 1 year ago on Google
    Andy is amazing! His speedy replies, extensive knowledge and incredibly genuine customer service is unmatched, even across state lines! :) I can only imagine his team are highly exceptional, especially under his care. Prices are insanely reasonable, and honestly, I'd happily pay more just to be treated this way by every store I shop at! No bs or gimmicks either, he'll give it to you straight, which is even more of a reason to shop here! I really hope I have the opportunity to come down, see the store and shake your hand one day! :)

    I went in search to start my Saltwater aquarium, I visited lots of shops and find this great place to start my new hobby. I bought my Aqua one mini reef 120 and some other equipments from them. Their products are quality and prices are good. The cleanliness of the shop is very high. Not to mention the knowledge, passion and customer support that is second to none! If you are ready to start an aquarium or looking for that one fish/coral please go speak to Andy and the team, I highly recommend them✌️

    I recently had the pleasure of visiting Fishworld Aquarium, and I can confidently say that it is a true aquatic haven for all fish enthusiasts! From the moment I stepped into the store, I was greeted by a visually stunning display of vibrant fish tanks and an incredibly knowledgeable and friendly staff. The first thing that caught my attention was the impeccable cleanliness and organisation of the shop. Every tank was crystal clear, the water quality was top-notch, and the fish appeared healthy and vibrant. It was evident that the owners and staff take great pride in maintaining a pristine environment for the aquatic creatures they house. The variety and selection of fish species available were truly impressive. From exotic tropical fish to rare marine species, this shop had it all. I was pleasantly surprised to see the extensive range of freshwater and saltwater fish, as well as an array of beautiful aquatic plants and corals. It was a delight to explore the diverse range of species, each tank meticulously labeled with their scientific names and requirements. What sets this aquarium shop apart from others is the expertise and passion of the staff. The employees were incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely enthusiastic about fishkeeping. They patiently answered all my queries and provided valuable insights on proper fish care, tank setups, and compatibility between different species. Their genuine love for aquatic life was infectious, and I left the store feeling inspired and motivated to create an ideal habitat for my fish at home. Furthermore, the shop offers a wide range of high-quality aquarium supplies and equipment. From top-of-the-line filtration systems to aesthetically pleasing tank decorations, they had everything one would need to create a beautiful and thriving aquarium. The staff also provided personalised recommendations based on my specific requirements and budget, ensuring I made informed decisions. Lastly, the exceptional customer service was the cherry on top of a perfect aquarium shopping experience. The staff went above and beyond to assist me, even carrying my purchases to my car and providing detailed instructions on acclimating new fish to their new home. Their commitment to customer satisfaction was evident throughout my visit. In conclusion, I cannot recommend Fishworld Aquarium highly enough. It is a true gem for fish enthusiasts, offering a wide variety of healthy fish, top-quality supplies, and unmatched expertise from a passionate staff. Whether you are a seasoned hobbyist or a novice looking to start your aquatic journey, this shop will exceed your expectations. Visit this aquatic haven; you won't be disappointed!

    Fish World Aquarium has helped us successfully cycle our fish tanks and also saved all our fish. I met both Andy and Leanne when I really needed help desperately in getting onto the right path to get these tanks were they are now. A HUGE THANK YOU !! to you both. The service at Fish World Aquarium is one of the most professional and friendly businesses in the industry. It is so lovely to have people who care for the fish and the health of the water they live in. I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone who needs fish, fish supplies, especially advice and water to go to Andy and Leanne’s business. If you have fish tanks and not really happy where you getting all these services as listed above lately, please do yourself a favour and check them out 😀

    Amazing service with extremely friendly and helpful owners. Andy served us and took his time to explain everything to us that we needed to know, and in simple terms that made us feel comfortable with the advice. Leanne served us the following day and she too was friendly and helpful. Both of these guys are amazing people who really understand what customer service is all about. I highly recommend this store for everyone from beginners to pros. Thank you guys.

    Amazing service and advise!!! Andy took the time and explain to us the process of looking after live plants and also took the time to assist us in designing our new rock aquascape. Great selection of tropical fishes, live plants, rocks and drift wood. If you in the area it is a must visit.

    The staff at Fish World are fantastic and so knowledgeable. The service was next level. Andy helped me sort out a tank for my 4 year old son. He talked us through everything, even let me message him out of hours to ask questions and get help with the water testing. Fish World is 10/10!

    This is a really good place to buy goldfish I have bought two goldfish last year one is a shubunkin and a fantail fish both together overall the quality of fish is just amazing and I would absolutely recommend this aquarium shop to friends. Don’t listen to the 1 or 2 star feedback.

    Amazingly good customer service!!! I usually don't write reviews but Fish World Aquarium has been so helpful with setting up my own little aquarium. The customer service is better than any store I've ever been to, Andy has been especially helpful in answering any questions or sorting out any problems I have. They have a good variety of fish and high quality equipment for your tank. All the staff are very knowledgeable and friendly and will be able to tell you anything you need to know in relation to your own aquarium needs

    Andy has been a massive help since my visit to the store, helping answering any dumb questions I had when I was both in store and online. You can tell he cherishes his customers but maybe not as much as he cherishes his fish (just kidding, I feel very loved by Andy). Ever since meeting Andy and his crew, you can tell everyone is very knowledgeable and passionate about this hobby. He’s also not afraid to stand up for the integrity of the store and will always prioritise the safety and well-being of his animals. Fishworld is a must stop for anyone in this hobby! Aaron

    Came in to get some marine supplies and came out with knowledge that will last me a lifetime. Andy and Leanne were such a great help. Will not go to another aquarium again.

    We are relatively new to the fish keeping family and have learned a lot in the past few months. We had started this journey by visiting several local aquariums. As we encountered difficulties we found that they were happy to sell us Expensive products to try to solve our problems with very little success. Thankfully we decided to pay Andy and Leanne a visit. Immediately they suggested that we decrease the number of products we were using and that we concentrate on small daily water changes to get water parameters under control. Finally we are here thanks to their advice and support. Andy & Leanne are not all about selling you products you don’t need, they really care about the health and welfare of your fish. If you are looking to bring fish into your life, pay them a visit, it will make the journey much easier. We wouldn’t go anywhere else.

    I just wanted to say a MASSIVE THANKS to Andy & Leanne, the owners of this fine establishment. They are such an absolute pleasure to deal with and can’t do enough for their customers, who they treat like family! I have the pleasure of being on the road all week and drop into probably at least 10 different LFS Aquariums throughout the entire Melbourne area... And I must honestly say, that I never feel more at home and welcome to any LFS as I do when I walk into my favorite shop in Melbourne on outskirts of Dandenong. They have the best and most importantly, honest advice to everyone in the hobby whether you are a newbies or advanced. They carry an amazing range of Freshwater Tropical (including my favorite Cichlids), Goldfish (cold water) and an awesome array of Marine species fish and corals. Their equipment and a plethora of different supplies to cater for everyone’s needs at the most fantastic prices, can’t be beaten, especially with even compared to what’s available online! Pop in and say hello to Andy & Leanne... you won’t be disappointed, I can promise you that! I even travel all the way from Eltham, so it’s not to far for quality SERVICE & especially QUALITY STOCK 👌

    Five stars tell all the story! Uncompromised support provided by Andy and his team, whether you are a newbie or veteran. During COVID 19 I trusted them and placed my first online livestock order (in fact this is my first engagement with FishWorld) arrived in great shape with few good surprises :)) Keep up the excellent work!

    We have brought 2x fish tanks from Andy and Leanne’s store at Fishworld and they are very professional, great advice, brought great fish, very friendly, Andy has a great sense of humor and is interested in how your fish are going once you buy them !! And is always happy to share his knowledge honestly!! The best thing we love about this store - is HOW beautifully well kept and clean they keep their aquariums! Which is a Huge Plus for us! Care and pride! Nothing worse than seeing Dead fish and green grotty smelly tanks when you go to buy fish!! Supporting local buisness that is good value for money!! I have been to a few Aqaurium around abouts! Fishworld is No. 1 store for us!! We will keep coming back!
