    Best place to buy fish tanks for aquarium. Please avoid buying fishes which are sold in hanging packets. If you buy, then most probably half of it may die on next day. Please spend some time there, search for best shops and buy fishes and accessories. You can also find birds and cages at low price.

    Your one stop solution for you aquarium needs from custom tanks to imported tanks, pebbles, aquarium interiors, lightings, equipments and ofcourse fishes. Preferably not on Sundays as the rush is more and you won't get time to interact with the shop owners. Find a suitable place for parking nearby as parking space is limited and the street is narrow. Best place for buying aquarium fishes in bulk quantity.

    This street is worth going for all you fish lovers, there are multiple shops selling a variety of fishes at such economical rates. I purchased 4 Betta Fishes ranging from ₹70 - ₹150. I would say the prices of the fishes or the accessories are at least 40% cheaper than the rest of the aquariums and pet store. On Saturdays and Sundays some extra road side shops are put up. For me I feel weekdays are the right time to go as the crowd will be less and certain shops the stocks come Monday or Tuesday. You'll not only find fish but also birds, rabbits, hamsters, turtles and other pets. It's a must visit Street for fish lovers.

    One stop place to buy any pets or food. Variety of fishes are very good. Separate shops for flower horn, sting ray, arona fish. We can find lot of shops where they have packeted the fish for 100₹. Foods are reasonable. We can get live worms for fish.

    If u want to buy the aquarium fishes in a cheap rate its the right choice for u its a best place for to buy or see the exotic and ornamental fishes.. If u want to buy the packet fishes just check with the fishes health or it is active in packet or not... You can purchase everything that u need for ur aquarium in wholesale place because all the sellers are wholesale and it is the Asia's biggest fish market to import or export through out..

    The best place for anything related to ornamental fishes. If you are looking/going to buy just fishes, then it’s best to go on a Sunday. Since they sell fishes at cheaper rates on Sundays. But don’t expect to get exotic fishes at cheap rates. Most branded shops like Boyu, Taiyo are closed on Sunday. I went there to check out planted tanks but was only able to find 2 open shops. I think it’s better to go on a working day if you are looking for premium stuff. Overall the best place for all your aquarium needs.

    First things first... If you're going here for the first time, then I would ask you to control the urge to buy something immediately. Secondly, plan how you are going to set up your aquarium. Planted tanks look amazing but they require a lot of effort and maintenance. Check for compatibility of fishes in your tank setup and size. Thirdly, check every shop and all their prices before buying your fish. Fish accessories can be tempting to buy more. Again, plan your setup. Planning is the key for your purchase. Finally, don't buy too much just because you like them, if you buy less you can always revisit them and buy more. All the best!

    Asia's largest fish market. Went to buy a small bowl worth 100rs for my betta...ended up buying a fish tank, all accessories worth 4000rs. It's such a luring place bringing up an entire oceanic ecosystem onto the streets. Cheapest price you would buy at including fish and all acquarium accessories. Bargaining works ...they Initially quote a lot

    The most fun to be had for an aquarium hobbyist in Chennai happens every Sunday at the market where all varieties of fish that are in season. All styles of fish tanks and accessories can be found here to suit multiple needs and tastes. Experts are available to help set up planted tanks and salt water aquariums as well.

Bcuz weekend their will b heavy traffic ..

    Very good place to purchase aquarium accessories, fishes, plants, decoratives etc., The prices are 50 to 60% less than the retail aquarium shops. There are nearly 40 to 50 shops available in one road.

    Kolathur Dish Market !!!🐠🐤🦀🐌🐚🦃🐦🐔🐣🐇🐁🐢🐕🐈🐰🐭🐱I go there whenever I feel down or wanna get some refreshment in routine life !!! Itz kinda my type of hangout place 😄A place for Pet-Lovers ...You need not go there with the mindset, that if you enter a shop, you must buy some thing/fish/item. Every shop keeper at kolatur fish market knows,that you might have come there to get an idea of fish keep or setting an aquarium...You can enquire price and details without any inhibitions. You can make new friends with people who are like-minded...Have a nice visit.. You won't regret it !!! Below are accessories I recently purchased for my tank ...You will find something that fits within your budget at some or the other shop ...Roam ! Roam ! Roam ! Don't buy at single sight.... visit all shops,compare price for your target,either fish/tank/accessories at different shops, bargain and buy. Most shops reduce price on bargaining...

    Just went to explore the market. Don't buy anything at first sight. Go deep into the market and make your own judgement. Over pricing in some shops. First day explore the market. Second visit buy what you want. Before starting an aquarium please think about the negative aspects and what you can do about it. Best wishes.

  • 5/5 Gautham P. 1 year ago on Google
    A big market to get all the aquarium supplies and pet animals and their supplies. Things like aqurium soil, local and imported tanks, wide varity of fishes, local and imported feeds , live feeds, aqurium plants, CO2 setup , marine tank setup , monster fish, exotic burds, pet animaks, dog food , cat food and much more. You name it and you get it. Don't stop your purchase in a single shop. Explore all the shops available before making your decision. Weekends will be crowded. Try to go in two wheelers rather than four wheeler because of this place doesn't have car parking and it will be always crowded and busy street.

  • 5/5 Jinso Joseph P. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place. But the sooner you explore the better. It is slowly turning into a place that sells at retail price. Because of the inflow of people. Visit today. Coz tomorrow everything could get costlier

  • 5/5 Vasanthi R. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 shadab j. 1 year ago on Google
    The Kulattur pet fish market is an amazing place. It is heaven on Earth for pet fish lovers. The only reason I gave this market only a 4 star is because the price for fishes, tanks and equipments vary from shop to shop. Very cheap and inexpensive place to buy aquarium and fishes. You will find plenty of shops but be aware and buy genuine products. All kinds of pets are available. Car parking is a bit problem. You can buy everything in wholesale Beautiful and best place to buy aquarium fishes in cheap and best quality. All shop keepers are friendly and mostly knowledgeable persons.they'll guide you how to take care of fishes. All kinds of fishes & water animals (mainly for aquarium) available here for reasonable prices. Koi fish, lobsters, star fish are famous. Have to check 2-3 shops before buying them. Prices are different from shop to shop for same fish. You can also find pet animals like birds and dogs too. Walking around the street is preferable here. Also delivery is available all over india from here and you can reach box within 1 week maximum.

  • 4/5 Hareesh Kumar K. 1 year ago on Google
    I Visited This Market As on 23.09.22 For Arowana Fish. I Took 2 Pieces Of Arowana Each Cost Rs 900/-. Starting Price Of Arowana Each Rs 800/- Per Piece. Don't Trust Youtube Videos Blindly, They Are Mentioning Bulk Quantity Price In Youtube Videos And Prices Are Different Between Shop To Shop For The Same Item. First We Need To Cover At Least Some Shop's For The Price Difference. Almost Around 40 Shops Are There. Pets Related Almost All Items We Can Get There. Like Cages, Food, Feeders, Pet Toys, Accessoires. There Are So Many Wholesale Suppliers And Retail Shops Also Available...

  • 4/5 Dhamu 1 year ago on Google

  • 3/5 The SIOL Quiz C. 2 years ago on Google
    I am sorry to say this but the trend of cheating the unaware customer is very much prevalent here. If you have a good knowledge in fish and their habits, you will be able to get good prices. Otherwise, you can buy items from your local fish shops itself instead of travelling to this location, especially if you are far away from here.

  • 5/5 Sri P. 2 years ago on Google
