Yelp.com Review - by Danika M.

5.0 of 5 stars. The Fish Store is cool. It's always 90 degrees in here, and real stinky. But they have so much INTERESTING stuff! My favorite thing is the juvenile Caribbean Green Moray Eel. It looks like Cecil…

2.0 of 5 stars. In a nutshell: they have a great selection of creatures, but little to no equipment. The store employees are unattentive and act like they know more than they do. My BF and I have spent the better of…

5.0 of 5 stars. So I have been looking to get a P. dovii for like 7 years. The real king of the Chiclids. I even went so far as to order 6 of them from a breeder and have them air- freighted to me. Downside was…

Best fish store in town

Great selection of fish and a very knowledgable staff. This is a great store. I stop in there whenever I can and always feel welcome. When I need help, it's there.

Yelp.com Review - by Rob B.

5.0 of 5 stars. Without a doubt, this is the best place to purchase aquarium fish in the Seattle area. I have been going to the Fish Store over the last 20 or 30 years. I have been peeved, perturbed, and dismayed when…

Should be included on your shppping list

The fish store has an attractive varity of fish, that appear to be maintained well. The staff is present albeit they are selective in how pleasantly they choose to greet and serve visitors to the store. I spent $500.00 in the store on my first visit and was treated well only after it was clear that I'd be making a moderately large purchase. Subsequent visits where hard to engage staff with questions or to get general support conversations going. Prices for marine animals are about 30% higher that comparable stores, which could be easily offset by providing welcoming support and assistance. The big plus is they that the store maintains a reasonable varity of fish, but don't go looking for supplies for your filtration or lighting systems.

4.0 of 5 stars. I love the Fish Store. I collect fancy goldfish, and they usually seem to have a good selection. The goldies do sometimes seem to get neglected for the fancier fish though, and there's been a few…

Way Overpriced on Fish Supplies! Unique and beautiful fish selection. Dead Bettas. Disinterested college-slacker employees.

I was amazed with the incredible variety of aquarium fish that The Fish Store had to offer! They had a wide variety of gorgeous, exotic fish. I went there on a Saturday afternoon and the store was crowded....
