Ben is hands down one of the most awesome people I have ever met! He took time to explain getting the tank ready for our fish. He took the time to actually talk to my 3 year old son and helped him get excited for the fish tank. If you're looking to start a fish tank I highly recommend Shark Reef!

Amazing fish store, knowledgeable staff, wide variety of coral, salt and freshwater fish, they have plenty of new equipment and discounted used equipment which is a life saver. The place is always evolving and there's something new everyday so get it fast!

You’re truly welcome by the fish community got one hell of a deal on a bunch of plants. Pros Great great customer service Healthy animals Wonderful prices Cons Not big enough I walk out craving more. (With what you have currently you are absolutely destroying other stores!!)

Great store, very helpful staff, and Big Mama (the fish) is a real schmoozer!

Great store!! Highly recommend. Owners’ bery knowledgeable and informative. Great customer service. Definitely worth a look.

I’ve gone two times and both of the owners I’ve talked to are amazing and nice. Extremely knowledgeable and helped me with all my fish and plant needs. They have a great selection of fish, plants, and shrimp which are all ridiculously low priced compared to the rest of town. They truly are for the customer and I appreciate that.

We love Capitan Rob and the guys from Shark Reef in Tucson. Good people, great prices and fantastic customer service. What's not to love! - Keep up the good work guys. It's fun to watch your business grow. - Chris from Discount Aquarium Fish and Reef in Tempe

This place is great. It's always better to support local, and the people who run the operations here go above and beyond to provide the best service. I've been going here for a year or so, and the people there have always been helpful, which is always a great thing to see, especially for me when i was just getting into having a saltwater tank. Part of the reason I love having a tank so much is because the people here have been ever so great about when I was starting out. They always have a wonderful selection of livestock ranging from fish to inverts and corals. All livestock is reasonably priced. If they don't have something that you're looking for in particular, they can probably order it in for you. There is much more I could share about why I love shark reef. But i have covered the main points here.

Large selection of saltwater corals & saltwater fish. They have a limited selection of freshwater fish but always have the particular species we were looking for. They have several varieties of freshwater shrimp. A great source of Java moss that they procure from local aquarists.

Went here tonight for the 1st time and was so impressed by the knowledge and helpful information I received. Along with so many beautiful fish, reef, and options! I will definitely be going back!!!

Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Great for both fresh and salt water aquariums. Even have a nice selection of premium Betas.

Nice store and they have really nice corals and all you need to start a great tank.

Love my guys @ Shark Reef. Helped me get started on my nano reef journey just over a year ago. Yes, shopping here will cost you more than it would at Petco but it’s worth it in building a relationship with a GREAT fish store when you’re in fish keeping for the long haul! Have everything you need and pricing is competitive. Enjoy my weekly trips to grab RODI & Salt water (and maybe a coral or two) and some good conversation.

The store has a wide variety of animals and the staff is very helpful. Went to the store looking for advice and help setting up a fish tank and was able to get the information I was needing as well as some suggestions on how set up the tank.

i didn’t get the name of the man who helped me, but he was so kind, knowledgeable, passionate, and professional! suggested some great plants that i was looking for, along with fish he thought would be a great candidate for my bichir. not just the usual google answer, but from his own personal experience fish keeping. i really appreciated his help! super cool place too! huge variety of saltwater fish, some freshwater. unique selection. everything looked clean, tanks looked great.

I love shark reef! It’s clean, and the staff are really knowledgeable and super sweet! Mel helped me out looking for a calcium supplement. Fish and coral are clearly very happy & healthy, and you can’t beat the joy of walking in to look at beautiful tanks with Island in the Sun playing. As an aside - the cory gang will appreciate the volume and variety of the cory cats :)

Awesome place, everyone there is very relaxed and knowledgeable, if you need something odds are they can get it. Also a great place to find hardscape

Buyer beware! This business has no concept of customer service. I bought 1 freshwater fish and 2 assassin snails. When I got home and acclimated both to an established tank, I realized that the snails were actually empty shells and less than 24 hours later, the fish was in labored breathing on the bottom of the tank. Upon returning to the business the next day to explain the situation and return the empty shells, I was given the assurance that the snails would be replaced on the next order and two additional snails added for having to make three 45 minute round trips for the purchase. I asked the employee helping me to document the agreement on the receipt and sign his name. The snails were not provided on the next order. I was told that the agreement to provide 2 additional snails would not be honored. All this after being told by Caleb and the employee, who declined to provide his name, that they would take care of me multiple times. I found out the unnamed employee, a short, sandy blond haired young man wearing a tee-shirt, shorts and flip-flops, signed someone else's name to the receipt rather than his own after I asked specifically for his name in case there was a problem. I finally simply asked for a refund and again was denied. I prefer to support local small businesses, but find it increasing difficult not to turn to on-line vendors when customer service such as this is so pathetic. Unfortunately, I'll chalk this up to experience and consider myself lucky that the financial impact was minimal. At retail, the cost to keep my business was $8. I'll be shopping elsewhere going forward!

amazing selection of aquatic plants and fish! very clean and decent sized tanks

Awesome store. They have both fresh and salt water fish, as well as living corals for salt tanks. The gentleman I spoke to had an obvious love for aquariums and seemed very knowledgeable. While I'm not ready to upgrade to a salt tank just yet, this will be my first and only stop when I do. I plan on going back many more times just to check out the inventory of numerous fish they have.

Great selection of salt water fish and corals. Even had some great fresh water fish and plants I was looking for. Staff was very friendly and always ready to help.

These guys know all about your aquarium needs. Call them with questions or stop into see them!! They have you covered!!

This place is awesome. They have a great selection of livestock and coral. Rob is amazing at what he does and has a passion to bring a level of professionalism that you don't see everywhere else. Shark reef will take you to the next level!

These guys are Quite professional they go above and beyond in customer service I would highly recommend them for any aquarium needs you might have

Loved this place. Very well maintained fish tanks with beautiful healthy fish. Betta care is top notch. No tiny cups. Clean filtered and planted tanks. These guys know what they are doing. Very knowledgeable and great service. I love my new fish and shrimps.

Probably the best fish store experience I have EVER had!! Benjamin helped my elderly sister with her fish, tank and supplies. You can trust this store for its quality of goods, staff and management. SUPERB!!! Thank you Benjamin!!

Best reef shop hands down, they are very helpful, knowledgeable and treat you like family. All the live stock is healthy and they stand by their product. I've love coming into this store. Great job guys.

This place is small but fantastic for any fish enthusiasts. Great pricing, beautiful set ups and extremely knowledgeable staff. If I had the space I'd buy everything in the shop.

Very knowledgeable about fish, excellent service. They reach out to tell me that the had female Kribnesis on one of my FB fish groups. It was worth the drive to get my fish.
