August 07 Β· Easy The MogulBought my new bird at this store and Im so happy with my new birdie friend! I have to say that the price was super expensive but Iβm glad I made the purchase. My bird is healthy, super friendly and filled with joy! π€©π©·πβ¨
August 31 Β· Genesis ReyesHonestly overly expensive. I bought a filter here for a 10 gal tank and it was $30 (before taxes) at the store and $15-20 (after taxes) online. Extremely overpriced. Iβd check online before buying any actual material things at this location. As for the staff and the animals in the store, I do think they were all great. The animals were in great condition and the staff was helpful.
July 09 Β· Eilyn GutierrezOur experience was great here. Everyone was helpful and knowledgeable. Our tortoise was healthy and beautiful. Definitely recommend
June 01 Β· NooraDonβt buy fish here! We spent $300 on a tank, accessories and 5 fish. One fish died in 24 hours, two fish died at 3 days. Even the replacement fish they gave us died within 2 days. That makes 4 dead fish in 5 days. The shop even checked our water to make sure it was ok. My kids were devastated.Edited to add: another one of our original fish died after 9 days. That makes 5 dead fish in 9 days.
