In response to the reviewer who described this place as dimly lit and stale smelling...of course it is. This is a 30 year old business in an area with a "Chinatown" type vibe. I dont know what they were expecting but it wont have the polish and sterility of a newly constructed strip mall. What it DOES have is a very nice owner who runs a gift shop with half a store dedicated to his hobby of fish keeping. While he does not have the vast selection of a typical fish store, he does have an eye for quality. He had one of the nicest flower horns I have ever seen and excellent fancy goldfish. I picked up a calico oranda and a red cap that were show worthy. Also, his selection of half moon Bettas is outstanding and his prices are better than the chain pet stores in most cases. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for traditional Chinese gifts or quality tropical fish.

They have quite a few goldfish... but there were alot of dead fish in the tanks. Things were cluttered, dusty, and unclean. The Bettas had about a half inch of water for them, and there was a dead, rotting beta in a cup... employees had no emotion when I showed the decaying fish to them. This place is like fish animal cruelty....... I would not support this business.... there are plenty of other fish stores that take way better care of their animals.

They had some unique fish that other fish stores dont carry but the place is very unpleasant. There was a stale smell that made it almost hard to breathe and the lighting towards the back of the store was quite dim. The entire time I was in the store I was uncomfortable and was very relieved when I left. It gave me a very sad feeling for some of the fish.

I pass this store everyday for 20 years. I decided to stop one day to see if they had any real plants for my aquarium, WOW! did they, they had many kids of plants, and fish. They had fish that I have never seen or even heard about. The prices are better then your big box stores. This may be Tacomas best kept secret.

Great store with friendly management! They carry fish that not a lot of other pet stores have such as Rummynose Tetra and Cardinal Tetra. Theyre picky about the supplier so they only recieve the best fish. The Asian gifts are also highly notable. Very intricate and beautiful at decent prices.
