Service is really nice and friendly. They have a good variety of fish both salt and fresh water.

Nice and clean store. I was specifically looking for a healthy looking copperband fish that was eating and they kept me updated after they received a few on the progress as the fish went through their receiving process. Great purchase!

I recently moved to Tampa and was looking for a reef supplies store in the area. I decided to visit Coral Reef Aquariums after reading the positive reviews.

I was impressed by the selection and the quality of the livestock and all the supplies they carry. Justin is a wonderful, knowledgable and a professional person who cares greatly about his customers. He located a specific anemone I was looking for and then gave me a choice to pick from multiple samples. This is a great store and I am a customer for life.

The store is nice, has a-lot of pretty fish, anatomies and, corals. It’s sad to say that the employees aren’t doing a good job with cleaning the tanks and there are several dead fish that are just laying around, no one collecting the dead fish so the fish that are still alive are eating them and digesting, whatever parasite they have, the “healthy” fish are now getting sick. My boyfriend and I love to go drive around Brandon,Tampa and the St.Pete area just to see what all the fish stores offer. The employees at coral reef aquariums are sweet but need more experience with salt water. We bought a fox face and 4 damsels. Acclimated and introduced them in 2 different systems once we got home. Both systems are well-established with much more delicate fish than damsels. Not even 24 hours later they’re dead. Aren’t damsels the hardiest fish? So something is definitely up with coral reef aquariums water and the owner need to do a clean out of all the dead fish in each tank and medicate the main fish display. BUYERS BEWARE! I’m putting this review for learning and growth for the company and buyers.

I highly recommend Coral Reef Aquariums to any aquarium hobbyist or fish enthusiast. They offer a top-notch selection of fish and exceptional customer service. My visit was a delightful experience, and I can't wait to return for my next aquarium addition. Thank you.

This place was great. The staff is very helpful & you can text special requests in if they don't have it in stock. My son has been looking for freshwater puffer fish & they said they can get them within a week or 2 so in the meantime he got shrimp, plants & some other algae eater to help keep the tank clean. Will definitely be going back.

Photo below of one of my two blue Acaras from this wonderful aquarium shop! They have a great selection of both freshwater & saltwater (including corals). The owner/employees are very knowledgeable; highly recommend. My next purchase will be a few discus fish.

I happened upon this aquarium store when I needed to go to the wireless store in the same plaza so I stopped in.

My first thought was that it was a pretty big selection of fresh and saltwater fish, coral, and inverts. They've got all the supplies and food you need as well.

Seemed pretty fair when it came to pricing as well. The staff were friendly.

Definitely worth stopping in and giving them a look!
