    Not sure what's going on with this place. There used to be loads of choice and healthy stock. Marine side looks ok, but the fresh water side could really do with a lift.

  • 4/5 Alec M. 6 months ago on Google • 62 reviews
    Great local store with friendly staff. I most recently bought a golden torpedo barb for £25 and it died the day after I got it home. Not my usual experience of this store tbh as they're normally very good. Tend to be really good for Seachem products too

    First time visiting clearwater aquatics traveled from Birmingham to buy some stunning malawi cichlids the staff was very helpful will definitely visit again in new year

  • 5/5 Luke C. 6 years ago on Google • 33 reviews
    This is a shop that you need to go in. From the outside it looks small but once you enter the front door you're transported to a huge shop. Family run and very helpful. You will find everything here for your coldwatwer, tropical and marine fish. I took some pictures but I don't think they do the shop any justice on really how good this shop is.

    Went to this shop for the first time today, and wow, it was fantastic! Lovely fish, loads to choose from, as soon as we walked in we the owner say hello and was really friendly so we're the staff. I will definitely be going back here. In fact, it's my new fish shop! Great prices, great people, great fish shop! 100% recommend.

  • 5/5 Lorraine J. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent I have tried so many places but this one is amazing. You get genuine advice and guidance through your journey. It was my first time buying tropical fishes and cannot wait to purchase a bigger tank and keep expanding on my fish family. My fishes are so happy, take the advice and follow it through its worth the wait.

    Amazing store and really helpful. I'm in there fairly regularly and it's a much easier process to buy fish with them then some other stores I've used.

  • 5/5 Liam D. 1 year ago on Google

  • 3/5 Anil P. 2 years ago on Google
    Located in the food Court, usual snacks and sandwiches with hot and cold drinks, need to ask if the pasties or sausage rolls are warm or hot otherwise could end up with cold one. Few seating outside.

  • 5/5 Simon W. 1 year ago on Google
    Brilliant aquatics shop with pretty much anything you could need. The staff are very friendly and have a vast knowledge to help you if you need advice! Easily one of the best shops I’ve been to for marine.

  • 5/5 Anjam J. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice place to shop. Staff brilliant. Very helpful.

  • 2/5 MoDot D (. 2 years ago on Google
    Little enthusiasm. Seems like their heart is not in it anymore. Poor limited range of stock too. Not very embracing of customers who may have bought/gifted their tank elsewhere.

  • 5/5 laura s. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic shop, the 2 gentlemen working today were very patient with me while I was shopping on behalf of my partner, they gave me lots of help and advice and couldn't do enough, thanks to you both, great variety of marine fish and corals at very reasonable prices, shame we don't live closer!

  • 5/5 GondozaSulo 9 months ago on Google
    Super friendly and knowledgeable staff, always stay longer than I expect because I'm chatting away! Lovely place with a huge range of aquatics equipment and with massive variety of healthy livestock.

  • 2/5 Mark T. 9 months ago on Google
    Used to be 5 star but now, half the fish I was told where sold that I was looking to buy and the other half they wasn't sure and needed to check a list so I left as they started to serve someone else. Shame really as used to be a great shop, etc. Would have given 1 star but may have just be a off day as far as customer service but that doesn't excuse half the livestock being sold and not labeled as sold.

  • 5/5 Stephen K. 2 months ago on Google • 4 reviews New
    Great local shop for fish and fish keeping related products for very good and competitive prices (much better than a few other places I've been to in Leicester). Staff are very helpful and informative, not pushy for sales. They take very good care of the stock of fish they keep. I purchased quite a few fish a year ago all but only lost 3 (I think I bought about 26 in total) but that was most likely because I introduced the fish to a newly cycled tank and I'm fairly new to the hobby. All other fish are going extremely strong, and I recently bought a few more fish from the store for my aquarium. This is my go-to shop for the hobby. Highly recommended this store. Cold water fish, tropical fish and marine corals, etc. in stock along with everything you need for the hobby.

  • 5/5 Richard C. 6 months ago on Google • 4 reviews

  • 5/5 Aquarianchic 2. 2 years ago on Google
    Wonderful shop for all your aquarium needs. It looks small from the outside, however it's actually quite spacious once you're inside. The staff are very knowledgeable, friendly and polite, the items are reasonably priced, they also have a wide variety of fish and other aquatic animals and plants in stock. They were able to assist a first time aquarium owner like me to get started. Highly recommended

  • 5/5 Matthew B. 5 years ago on Google
    I've been in the hobby for many years now . I know good shop I've been to them all . Dreamreef is one of three shop I'll every use the advice is spot on every time . I consider the owner a friend his that nice . You'd be silly not to spend extra time in the shop and get to know the staff .. 100% committed to quality .I've tested his water to check and it's been as good as mine and for a shop that's a big deal .... Keep up the good work

  • 5/5 Adnan S. 6 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Khuzeima M. 7 years ago on Google
    Excellent place to visit for all your reefing needs. John And Kate make your visit very welcoming.

  • 5/5 Emma 7 years ago on Google
    I've visited quite a few fish stores around the uk and I can honestly say that Dreamreef is one of the top lfs I've been to. John and Katy are two of the most welcoming people I have ever met. John has been both a hobbyist and a seller for quite a while and is now my go to person when a problem arises. That speaks within itself. From colourful wrasses to stunning rainbow corals, every purchase i have made from Dreamreef has been in top condition and health, they have helped me combat problems in my tank as they arose and also taught me about how the problem has come about in the first place which shows the length of care they put into their customer's reefs. Definitely a 5 star experience.
