Very good lfs, got a flagfin angelfish on Labor Day sale. The owner said they had it for two months, so the fish is very well trained: out going, eating well ( frozen and flakes). It took no time to get use to my tank. Taking it as one of the difficult fish to keep, I am very happy for it. The prices for marine fish are little on the high end range comparing to some other stores. But if every fish in the store has to stay under observation and qt, gets food training for over a month, these are actually very good prices for qted fish.
Nice store, good prices, friendly staff. Small selection, but nice quality. Highly recommend a visit. Had an awesome large flower horn cichlid for $56 - unbeatable deal.
As a beginner in the fish keeping hobby, I couldnt have asked for a better shop to stumble into. The owner was unbelievably welcoming and knowledgeable about the fish in her care. Thank you for your wisdom, we will be back!
Thank you Fish Island for all your help and expertise. What a great selection of saltwater fish and live corals you have… and let’s not forget the freshwater fish selection you have. I strongly recommend Fish Island to all my family and friends and can’t wait to buy more corals from your store.
The owner is so nice and so helpful! Shes amazing! I love this place, I’m definitely going back there this week! Hopefully they get a bigger variety of fish soon! I can’t wait!
Wonderful place to buy fresh and saltwater fish. They are so knowledgeable with everything that has to do with fish. They are so professional and nice for a new business. I hope they last forever, they are in a perfect location. Thank you Fish Island for saving my very expensive exotic fish collection.
Excellent service and super friendly owner, who helped me with my issues, tested my water within 2 weeks interval and guided me for proper chemicals and fish nutrients. Her fishes super healthy and I would recommend to by any supply’s, supplements and live fish ONLy at THIS STORE.
Relatively new store, but she was VERY helpful and was willing to price match. They are currently remodeling and will have an additional 2,000 gallons! Cant wait to see it!!!

Great store!
We recently discovered Fish Island. We found the owners friendly and very helpful. There is a good selection of freshwater and saltwater fish. We found some great additions to our current aquariums. We are setting up two new tanks at our home, which is 45 minutes away from the store. Worth the trip. We will be back.
Very nice shop. I liked the guppi they had

2021-09-09The absolute best customer service I have experienced. The owners were both so knowledgeable and helpful. They had a big variety of both freshwater and saltwater fish and corals. My boyfriend and I went in and ended up purchasing over a dozen fish. Many of the fish we got, we have never seen before. The prices were very fair. All of the tanks were very clean and you could tell all the fish were very healthy. The lady that helped us said that they do their best to isolate all fish to ensure that they are all healthy before they go to their new homes. They bagged our fish up, sent them home in a huge insulated box, and helped us carry it to our car. When we got the fish home, they settled in very quickly and ate. Usually when we get new fish, they take a day or so to adapt. Thank you for a lovely experience. I am very pleased with our purchases and will be returning very soon! I would recommend Fish Island to anyone who is looking to start or add to their aquatic collection.

2021-07-03What an amazing visit I had today! I am so psyched that there is a small independently owned fish store so close. The owner is so friendly, warm and knowledgeable. The first impression I had is that she cares deeply about her fish and takes pride in her trade. I’m also beyond grateful that she took in my baby Dalmatian Mollies! I couldn’t have found a better place to bring them. Thank you for a wonderful time today and I look forward to so many more visits!

2021-06-25Shop was beautiful, well organized and clean. The owner is a warm and knowledgeable person who deeply cares for her fish. She works with good breeders and had some of the most stunning betas Ive ever seen, not to mention the beautiful angel fish and variety of salt water fish. There is also parking right in front, which is very convenient. Will definitely be going back!

I can tell that she cares about the fish very much. She takes very good care of the fish and takes the time to educate you so that you will take good care of the fish as well.
