Great store Tony is always so helpful and very knowledgeable . Can always find brine shrimp and black worms and other great things to feed my fish . Never brought home a sick fish to make my tank ill with disease . I don't mind the ride from nwlk to stmfd for the supplies I need . If I'm looking for a certain fish Tony will do his best to track them down for me and he has on more than one occasion . Like I said great store.

As a new homeowner, I inherited a koi pond. Not knowing what needed to be done, Tony and his fish whisperer Frank(?) stepped in and made me very comfortable and knowledgeable. He did not try and sell me items I did not need, and offered advice on how to care for the pond during the seasons. I was very satisfied with the cleaning of the pond. I was especially touched, when one of the fish had a hard time adjusting back into the pond, but Tony and his assistant gave him ample time to recover-they did not want to give up on him until it was discovered he was injured. I would highly recommend the Fish Bowl Pet shop for any of your animal or aquatic needs.

By far the best Pet Shop I have been to

The experience and knowledge of the folks at Fish Bowl is an incredible resource for the owners of pets of all kinds. The staff is as kind as they are helpful. The products they offer are all top-notch as well. As a loving pet owner in the area, I wouldn't dream of going elsewhere for my pet's needs.

Fantastic Pet Store!

Fish Bowl Pets is a wonderful neighborhood pet store. I bought a gecko for my son at Fish Bowl several months ago. Tony and his staff have been so helpful and patient answering the many questions we have had regarding our new pet.

Quality service and care! Thanks Fish Bowl for the great service and your personal touch!

Best in Town!

We love this place for several reasons. First, it's a great place to see unusual animals, amphibians and reptiles, fresh and marine fish. Then, Tony and Grace, the proprietors, are very knowledgeable about everything having to do with their small pets! They are generous with their time, explaining the habits/requirements of the various critters in this store. They are also very helpful with prolem solving once the pet has gone home with you. Fish Bowl will sometimes sell used cages, aquariums, etc., so keep an eye out if you are just starting out.



They have an animal program for young kids on Saturdays, and they 'kennel' rodents, lizards, birds, and even fish for a nominal fee, if you can't find a sitter while you are on vacation.

Very Helpful Advice

Tony was extremely helpful the other day regarding my ball python (Alex) who has not been eating for a couple of months. I now have a snake that is eating again. Thanks Tony!

great advice on small snakes and reptiles... they know their stuff - not just with fish. Fair pricing too, and the fact that (unlike bigger stores) they are professionals means that your pets will thank them too!

Friendly and excellent fish pet shop

I have been a customer of the Fish Bowl for about 20 years. I have found their service to be excellent. I have specially ordered fish from Tony, and have been very satisfied. I have boarded my fish at the Fish Bowl, without any problems. Tony patiently answers my questions, and gives sound advice. He knows my tank, and fish population, and makes suggestions; more like a consultant than a salesman.

Great Pet Store

We've had great experiences with this local pet store, unlike many national firms the people at the store are knowledgeable. We had problems with our fish tanks and were losing lots of fish our former stores answer seemed to be "buy more fish", instead of solving the problem.



Highly recommended !

Good service, very knowledgable staff. They know exactly what they are talking about and are in the business because they enjoy it. I would go here rather than any of the large chains.

A local favorite of mine

Fish Bowl Pet Shop is #1. If you need quality pet products at a great price and friendly service...This place is TOPS!! I have been a customer for 20 years and they are always eager to go out of their way to help me, no matter how busy the store is.....The products are great and the fish tanks are sparkling clean. Small animals and reptiles are kept in clean cages and the store is a pleasure to browse though. Most of the time you can find the owners there ready to answer your questions, not like the cheaper pet store chains.....If they are not there they are sure to leave qualified employees who are very knowledgable. It just doesn't get any better then this pet shop!!
