The owner always trys to sell me more fish than my tank should EVER have. Everyone who knows even the basics about fancy gold fish knows the one inch per gallon DOES not apply! My 46 gallon should have a MAX of 3 goldfish. He told me I could have about 10!!! Yeah they fit as babies but things grow.... Every time I decide to give them another chance and buy a fish from them it dies within a week. And its not me, because all my stock from other places is alive and healthy! Its to bad because he does have unique stuff, but I always feel like I am being screwed over. They dont write prices on most of the tanks, and Ive actually witnessed them telling different customers different prices. Once he tried to get me to pay 50$ for a fish that was labeled as 30$ (one of the few that were actually labeled) Its too bad because I would go there more because I live so close, but I always feel like I just left a sleazy car dealership when I go there....

I always buy my fish here. They have the best fish and my step dad also buys fish from here and he has been for 10 years. I tried other places like petco but I got 2 fish and they got all of my fish ick and they all died in a week. I will always buy my fish at the fish bowl. There fish live longer than any other fish I have gotten at any other stores. My mollies and tetras and algae eaters always live longer than usual and I think it is because the workers there are always taking care of there animals no matter what. This place has brought me memories that I will never forget because of the fish they sell. When I am old enough I will work there thats how much they rule. In conclusion, shop here if you love animals and fish. They sell cute puppies, fish, I think kittens, and all sorts of other animals.

I went to this store in search of new saltwater aquarium livestock. The Tanks in this store were horrid. Brown algae consumed most tanks and there were dead fish in every single tank in the store. One of the workers actually argued with me that brown algae and dead fish(that had obviously been there for a long time) is not a sign of bad water quality. I received the bare minimal customer service as they were more concerned with eating Dominos and talking with friends as opposed to helping me. It was the first time I actually felt bad for the fish and coral that live in the tanks they supplied. I will give them credit that they had great prices, but some things come at a cost. Dont waste your time.

They have a good selection and one of the only places to purchase many of the more experienced level fish and medications for taking care of them. How ever if you buy discus there you will be spending more money on the medications than you will on the cost of the fish. 7 out of 9 died because of worms and internal parasites that came from the store feeding them live black worms. I will never buy such a high level experience(and high cost) fish from their store again, however their neons and more common tropical fish have always been pretty hardy and ive never had issues in the past. But as one other reviewer said "its not the fishbowl i remember as a kid".

AWESOME!! Loved the store and the staff!! Always a great selection of fish fresh or salt..tons of beautiful corals..and a nice frag selection aswell...sorry if anyone has ever had problems with the Fish Bowl..its a shame that a person has a bad experience because of their inexperience and has to slander the store cause they cant admit there own mistakes...never in the 10 years that I have been going there have I ever had any problems with their stock and the owner is a very nice, smart and caring person. =) 5 stars!!!!

I went into Fish Bowl tonight looking for a small piece of a certain type of coral. The type I wanted was there but only a few massive colonies of it. While normally you would be walking away with nothing, Mickey went and broke me off a piece of the colony and let me pick the exact piece I wanted, and gave it to me at a great price. The service was superb and the staff was very knowledgeable. I will be going there again very soon.

I bought a dwarf rabbit from here a few years back, and it was a traumatic experience. A month after getting it, it began to have seizures. Upon taking it to the vet it was determined that my cute little baby bunny had a brain infection that he could have only gotten from other rabbits it had been exposed to. Ultimately, he had to be put down, and I had to pay the $400 vet bill. :(

I went in, walked around trying to find someone to help. It smelled like death and the kids working there didnt acknowledge my presence. We were trying to buy a puppy, which there werent any even though the sign states they sell puppies. We ended up leaving. The smell alone was enough to turn us off.

They do not take care of their animals. Someone I know took pictures of the sick and dead reptiles, dirty fish tanks etc. They should be shut down permanently.
