Looking at the bad reviews Im shocked. Ive been going to ACC since they opened up last year and I LOVE the store. I explain it to people as "the apple store for all things saltwater". Ive bought multiple frags, a few large corals and fish and inverts (including one of their beautiful rose bubble nems) and Ive never had a problem. John is super nice and always takes the time to say hi to us even if hes busy. The rest of his staff is exceptional as well. I would recommend anyone to this store and already have told multiple people to shop here and they loved it as well. I buy my saltwater and ro/di water here as well with no issues as I saw some of the negative reviews stated. I have two tanks so if the water was bad I would know it. I will still recommend my friends to this store and continue to buy from John, usually on a weekly basis. I give ACC 5 stars and a big THUMBS UP!

I have been a customer of Aquarium Car Center since their doors have opened and find that their prices are typically on par or below normal retail. To add, their Quality Control is above what I expect and the customer service is far superior to any other aquarium store I have been to. What I truly like most is the fact I can walk in and ask questions, pick brains, and in Layman terms shoot the s---. I have purchase a few nice Center Pieces as well as many Frags with no losses what so ever. I also have a few of their fish, and they are thriving. When purchasing coral or fish, good acclimation is key to a thriving animal and just as important is the water quality of the tank they are going into. Overall ACC is a very personal Aquarium Store with exceptional knowledge and expertise... Not just a local fish store.

John is supper knowledgeable and is not out to sell you what you dont need unlike most of the LFS. His prices are very good but what most important is his live stock is top quality. I never lost a fish, not only that they acclimated to my tanks and would start eating within 24hrs. If he or his staff is not sure about the fishes health they simply will not sell it to you. They operate with very high integrity. I drive to them all the way from Brooklyn which is 60 miles each way. I do that because after visiting all the LFS in my area none come close. Specially when it comes to integrity which to me is priceless.

Simply one of the best small salt water stores that you will find. Always a great selection of fish and coral. Speaking of the corals, wow, some fantastic choices, and all sizes. Many small frags and a large selection of mature coral the size of my fist and bigger. The prices are very competitive and if you download their app, you will never miss a sale. Great offers and specials on a regular bases. Solid advise and friendly service. There are larger stores nearby, but the selection is better and there is no competition with the coral selection, ACC wins hands down.

Not sure what place the last negative review was about, but I can assure you it is not this place. Every piece of coral, equipment, and fish I have gotten from this place has been perfect. No dead fish, no dead coral, not sure if ive ever even seen a lion fish there. Staff is outstanding, and have bent over backwards to help me, and not even with big purchases. The value that is given by the staff and facilities of ACC goes well beyond what I feel anyone would expect from a true reef store! Do not hesitate to visit this store you wont regret it!

Thanks ACC for making my 1st year in saltwater fish & reef keeping a success and a super enjoyable hobby. From the initial setup to now, I have learned so much from your knowledge and advice. My tank is thriving & everything I have added is healthy and beautiful! Its always a pleasure to come in and get my water and all of my tank needs. Your prices & selection are incredible and the raffles, games & events super fun! Love the new App also. Keep up the great work!!!

John and his team are good people. I am new to this hobby and had some bad experiences starting up at another local fish store. Luckily I found ACC on Google and gave them a shot. 5 months later my tank is growing, everyone is healthy and happy. John and his team are not just their to sell you stuff, they have a level of customer service that you do not find much these days, which in the end made me a loyal customer.

We went to Aquarium Care Center and the employees went above and beyond what I had expected. They helped me pick out some fish, told me exactly how to take care of my aquarium, and gave me the right tools I needed. I was sincerely so overwhelmed by how knowledgable and friendly they were. They really know their stuff here!

This is the only LFS that I use. The owner John always makes time for some small talk or advice. I have been to approx. 10 other stores like this one but none have the same deals,selection , prices and quality. I would definitely recommend to anyone in the saltwater fish hobby. Worth the trip from anywhere

They are extremely helpful and answer any questions you may have. They also will help work with you and teach you how to set up and keep a salt aquarium tank running and can answer questions on freshwater too.

Quality and consistency make this place a true winner. Staff always very personable and knowledgeable. Prices great for prime coral elsewhere found much more expensive. Highly recommended. 5 Stars!
