This place is amazing!! Firstly, when you walk in this place it’ll take your breath away, it’s so beautiful!! The owners & staff are amazing and so knowledgeable on their animals. The staff also teaches customers and kids about their animals and will let you pet some of them. Fantastic fair prices, and literally has everything you could need for reptiles & aquariums. All of the animals are very well taken care of, with clean enclosures. You can tell the owner and staff take pride in their work and love what they do. Thank you for an amazing store. I can’t wait to visit again!

This place is amazing!!! Big place, salt, and freshwater fish!! All the fish and corals are super healthy and any that are not are quarantined, which was nice to see! If you need assistance in setting up an aquarium there is a ton of help and they are glad to help. There's a Cafe that will open soon. The salt and fresh water ponds in front of the store are amazing. Reptiles, Cichlids as well many more animals to see. You will love this place.

What do you get when you pair good food with an adventure full of reptiles and sea animals? A culinary paradise for this girl! Had a great time checking this place out for sure. Stephen, chef/owner was so very helpful picking out just the right food for us for lunch yesterday. As we waited we wandered the store that this sweet cafe is nestled in and had fun with it all. Such a beautiful display with ponds, aquariums, bridges and tanks. There were all kinds of fish.. and I mean every kind lol. There were pythons and frogs and turtles and sting rays and eels and plants and sea anemone and well so much more! We had the salmon chef prepared and the Egyptian cinnamon honey chicken. They serve a complimentary sweet tea and a fruit infused water plus have smoothies and other drinks in the cooler. Kids of all ages will love this! Pricing on point too! Going back soon for sure.

Amazing place, big and full of different creatures. My kids went once for a birthday celebration and they had fun experience with snacks and different little animals. I like how they have so many different types of fish and how they organise the store. They also have a coffee shop inside but the time I went there it wasn’t working otherwise it would be great to grab a drink among the nature.

Absolutely amazing experience and beautifully laid out. Staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Will definitely be coming here again. Great as an aquarium date, came here due to wanting to see an aquarium and Jacksonville doesn't have one so this is an amazing alternative. The employees clearly take good care of their fish/reptiles/ect.. animals looked in great condition.

A must go to place if you are an aquarium enthusiast. The displays are amazing, particularly the rescue ponds. A wide variety of hardscape, plants, fish, and corals. Large selection of rimless tanks and tank accessories. Cafe has good food that's made to order.

I'll start by saying if you are going just to admire the tanks & cafe then you'll have a great time. However, if you are planning to purchase fish then I would proceed with caution. I'm new to the hobby & was looking to stock a 40 gallon with a few cichlids. Lydia ended up selling me 3 jewels & 2 "blue ram" cichlids. Turns out neither of the blue rams were actually blue rams. After researching, one was a Bolivian ram & one was a firemouth cichlid. The jewels ended up being too aggressive, so I returned them to the store. Andrew gave me partial store credit which I applied to buying an electric blue acara. When I returned home, I realized it had a severely sunken stomach. Once introduced to my aquarium, it ended up spreading ich to my existing fish. In the last 5 days, I have lost numerous fish while fighting the ich infection & today to top things off the blue acara passed away (purchased 11/24 & passed away 11/29). Now I am left fighting an infection with my remaining fish, including the original blue ram aka firemouth cichlid. Beyond disappointed.

I was thoroughly surprised! Such a cool place to visit especially w/kids.. The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable and the cafe is a added bonus! The smoothies and soups are delicious and very reasonably priced.. We'll definitely be visiting again soon..

Excellent shop with unique exotic animals. They have an amazing selection of fresh, salt, and brackish fish and plants. Lots of driftwood. The store is clean and smells nice. I would go here for all my fish needs and just to hang out! Very cool spot. Very helpful staff. The plant guy helped us out and he was very knowledgeable.

Floating Sea Aquatic cafe is Jacksonville own little hidden gem to get a quick bite to eat and see some beautiful fishes and reptiles. Plus you can purchase you a little forever fish to go home with you. Love it will be back to get me a beautiful little fish.

Great atmosphere with lots of sealife and reptiles! You can find fish, turtles, snakes, lizards, other things that look like lizards and snakes had a baby. Most impressively, they have a cute little restaurant with unique selection of foods from sandwiches to Egyptian chicken to pasta. The people are friendly and they make the food from order. We ordered crepe and layered chicken, both were uniquely flavored and delicious, but my one complaint is that they were too heavy on the salt. If they were to lower the salt content, I think I would give the food 5/5

Great place to bring your kids to learn about nature. As long as you understand this is not a good place for coffee, you will enjoy your time. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend.

A great place to visit. Staff are all extremely knowledgeable. This place WILL make you want to buy a fish tank.

Place is kind of cool and you can see interesting fish. However the tanks are extremely dirty and we saw many dead fish. Lots of turtles crammed into one tiny pool. They probably don't have the budget to maintain everything as well as it should be. I know that must be a lot of upkeep but I wish the animals were in better environments with more space.

I can’t begin to tell you how much I love this store! I keep a marine tank and go here for all of of my supplies to keep my fish healthy and for all my livestock. They are super knowledgeable and if there is something I don’t know or have questions about, Ken and Azi are always there to answer my questions. The best part about this store is that they are more than a for-profit business, they are about the conservation of all kinds of beautiful animals and put their money where their mouths are to make sure these animals are around for future generations to enjoy! That’s what it’s all about! I highly recommend Floating Sea Aquatics!

Love the employers and the beautiful array of fish Can't wait for the Cafe to get back up and running

My family enjoys visiting Floating Sea Aquatics on a regular basis. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. The animals are well taken care of, and the free art classes for kids are amazing. We’ve purchased plants and betta fish, and the prices are fair. There were no snails on the plants, and the staff was available to answer any questions we had.

I go to FSA for their sip and paint/ paint like a star nights! They offer so many other classes and have the coolest types of fish and reptiles to look at! The employees are super nice and welcoming and they do a lot for the animals!

Going to Floating Sea Aquatics is always a nice and fun experience especially since all the staff are warm and friendly. I don't like going to places where the employees are just there to get their paycheck and don't care about the customers at all. This is definitely not one of those places. I like that they have events and also a cafe!

Definitely the fanciest fish store i’ve ever been in, it was like walking through a small aquarium. As we walked around the staff was very friendly and there if you need them. Unfortunately we did not eat at the cafe this time but we will be back!

The most impressive pet store I’ve ever visited that also has a cafe! All your freshwater, saltwater, reptile, and amphibian needs can be met here with an incredible stock of products suited for hobbyists at all levels. The staff were very friendly and provided helpful insight about the store and the products within. I’d highly recommend anyone who loves pet/fish stores to visit!!
