Best Aquarium Shop Springfield Near Me

Jason B: Just to let you know we close in 20 minutes like I dont know the time, takes 5 minutes to bag an cash out a fish you would think they want a sale seeing NOBODY is ever there… Go else where unless you want to waste money an really gamble. I have soooooo many fish all kinds of fish that are alive an well. First fish I bought here ever, against my better judgement was a peacock Cichlid, very hearty fish, an it’s already dying next day- dead the 2nd. I recommend going to school of fish or anywhere else where they at least have a guarantee. Even 2 days would be nice.

Peter Huang (Pete): Of course we know you guys close at five that’s why we tried to rush there 20 mins before closing. The staff that didn’t care for our entrance started to sound like a broken record after only a few mins.“Just to give you fair warning the shop is closing in 10 mins”“If you have question I suggest you ask it now so there is enough time before we close”Nope. Not really interested in buying anything after hearing that.

Jon M: Very clean and good prices for fish

Phil McKool: If you're a monster fisher keeper. This is the place for you. Arowanas, Gars, peacock bass, etc.

Eddie Caruthers: My first visit, drove over from Waterbury to pick up a specific fish and they held it for me. Of course, I ended up buying two more as well.

Leroy Trinidad: This store definitely have a nice selection of fish. However the majority are sick. After spending a few minutes in there, I saw everything from ick, to ammonia burn.I ended up buying 2 fish just to try them out and they both died shortly after.This store DOES not have a warranty on fish so is more of buy a fish and pray it makes it.

Preston Lorenz: I just picked up my first tank from aqua dreams after being exposed to this hobby by a friend. I have been visiting aqua dreams and other local fish stores for the past few weeks with a friend and aqua dreams has been the best store by far. Their staff is super knowledgeable, friendly and willing to help. They also seem to have some of the better prices and deals on most livestock and products. Super grateful to be near both locations as they have been super helpful. Highly recommend Aqua Dreams.

Chris Orlandi: There are other stores in the area, but the prices at Aqua Dreams are way more reasonable than the others, and Chris's knowledge of the trade trumps them too. He helped me out in ways that other stores would never do. Great experience.

Jared Kajka: Our first visit. We found it clean and the staff was friendly and knowledgeable. We bought some rainbow fish.Glad we went.

Dawn Laukka: I didn't like that they don't show prices on their fish.

Timothy A: Place is by far best around selection is awesome and tanks are always clean and the help is always knowledgable

David Mojica: Hands down my favorite place to buy livestock or really any product needed for my saltwater aquarium. Been in the hobby for 13yrs now and I have not found a better place in Western Mass! Display tanks are always immaculate, always filled with a great variety of fish and coral, and the shelves are always stocked full of supplies! Friendly and knowledgeable staff, I definitely recommend for all your aquarium needs!

wojtek molitorys: Very professional, thanks

Ashley-Rose Saccamando: Went here looking for some plants. Got a few for such a great price and lovely staff :)

Kristina Vieira: I basically live here. They are so kind and so helpful. I am always asking questions and trying to learn more and they never complain. They always help me load my heavy stuff from water to my new tank. It's the only place I go even though its a good 25 minute drive.

Emily Coleman: My boyfriend and I drove 2 hours to get here and as soon as we stepped into the door we were in awe of the selection. The amount of different types of coral, fish and crustaceans were incredible. His coral selection is something you would see on TV. Everything was so beautiful and abundant. And the different amount of fish felt like I was in the ocean swimming with them. The owner was there and was so helpful for any question we threw his way. The eel and anemone we got were both in amazing shape and looked so beautiful. I would definitely go back to this place and would recommend it to anyone looking to start, or continue a salt water tank. 100% worth the drive.

Dustin Grandchamp: Wonderful people Amazing selection of fish and coral Definitely a 10 out of 10 in my book

Nikari Keyotsumi: They were very helpful when I called in and had questions with my order. The order was shipped very fast. I will definitely be ordering online again.

Bryan Pickett: love it here the workers are very helpful and knowledgeable will always come for my regular necessities got my whole tank setup here, in under a month i have coraline algae growing and everything in my tank constantly looks stunning

Alexis Torres: Ed is the best!! My family only goes here for our fish and shrimp needs! I had gotten shrimp from Petco they died within the week I got shrimp from Ed the beginning of February 2023 and they are thriving!!! The fish and plants are always in good shape and Ed is so knowledgeable it makes fish care so easy. Ed is friendly and so helpful. Fish frenzy will be my go to fish spot for all my tank needs! Thank you Ed!

Tony Howes: So glad to have found this place, a hidden gem for sure! This place puts petco or any of the big chains to shame! Ed is awesome and super helpful when it comes to anything you might need, I will be going here from now on for anything fish related for sure ✌🏽

Elizabeth Savage: This shop is absolutely incredible. The tanks are gorgeous, all beautifully maintained and manicured and every single animal looks like they’re happy, healthy, and fully thriving. The owner is also so incredibly kind and is so happy and willing to show you the ropes of setting up an aquarium. You can tell just how smart he is and how long he’s been in the trade, he’s the definition of a walking encyclopaedia. The prices are also great and there’s a lot of variety in decor, species, plants etc.

RUBEN DIAZ: Great prices. Lowest in the area. Support our local businesses.

Jose Marcial: Friendly and best prices

Eric M: Just discovered this place and I love it. It’s the complete opposite of a chain store. Fish and plants are healthy, the owner is incredibly knowledgeable, not much is priced or labeled (prices are very fair). There is a lot of product in a small space (claustrophobic). Allow enough time to talk to the owner about what your buying. I’ll be going here as frequently as possible, it’s the perfect local store. Going with little kids was a little stressful because everything is at their height, won’t stop me from bringing them again though.

Zack Tebo: Just ask Ed! He knows where everything is and he keeps a great stock of everything. He's always got some interesting fish in stock too.

Natalie Rosado: Ed is great, the only place i shop at to buy my fish, food, plants, and necessities for my fish tank.

Sue Gagnon: Had the pleasure of meeting Ed Saturday, very friendly and knowledgeable. Will definitely be back!

Andie Klopfer: The owner Ed from "Fish Frenzy" is very pleasant, very knowledgeable about many different types of fish, fish tanks etc., as well as any problems you may have. Prices are VERY reasonable and fair. Please Support small businesses like "Fish Freny/Ed"! Petco DOESN'T even come close! Providing absolutely NO CUSTOMER SERVICE & expensive prices!

Iwona Wojtaszek: 👍👍👍🐠🐡🐟🌱

Bonita Applebum: This place is awesome. The owner is extremely knowledgeable and very nice. Dont let the look of the place detour you. All the fish are healthy and they have great prices. I will never go back to petco.ever. I enjoyed my time there and he was awesome in telling me how to fix my filter so I wouldn't have to buy a new one. Thank goodness South Hadley has this hidden gem.

William Wisniewski: Ed is AWESOME!Great place to buy fish, shrimp, corals, fish food, sand, salt, pump systems, supplies and get excellent advice!

Jay Gouin: Nice little shop with a great assortment and great prices

Daniel Reis: if you are looking for a pristine corporate pet fish store turn around. this is not that. it's a wonderfully messy chaotic collection of tanks and supplies piled up in a disorganized mess. but it's wonderful! one of the best pets stores I've been to. it's all backed by a very friendly very very knowledgeable man who knows fish and what you need to do to keep them alive. he made suggestions like using some water from an established tank to colonize the bacteria of a new tank to keep the fish healthy and take care of the fish urine. he knows his stuff is extremely helpful and doesn't try to sell you anything. he has beautiful fish in very clean tanks anemones and beautiful live aquatic plants. this would be a great place to set up a tank. he is so generous, and he has a good stock of all kinds of fish although it's not neatly laid out as one would expect from a chain store. I love this place highly recommended.

Lance C: Great fish store and owner. Never had any problems with the fish, plants, and shrimp I bought from him. It's so great I do a 2hr+ drive to buy stuff here

Caitlyn Boudreau: The owner has very impressively clean tanks compared to other shops I’ve been to. The pricing is very fair and I will likely be returning to get more. I would highly recommend stopping here if you’re searching for a new addition to your tank.

Colleen Moros: The owner has a wealth of knowledge and exceptionally helpful. It’s worth the drive for us to support someone who has helped countless get into the hobby.

Katherine R: Owner has a wealth of knowledgeDecent variety of healthy fishGreat prices
