The Aviarium

Excellent prices and excellent service. The owner nancy really cares about each and every bird. Unlike chain stores she spent time getting to know me and my other finches. She also sells most in pairs which is a lot easier on the birds. Will be back!

Was looking around to start off an aquarium and the Pet Smart recommended this place for a wider variety of fish… These guys definitely know their stuff. Lot of cool and exotic fish around. Spent about 2 hours there and the guy was so helpful in explaining the pros and cons of stuff to me.
Back in India it was so simple. have a clay or cement pot. fill in some well water, have some water plants. and there you go. you can have some gold fish, gouramis etc… it was so easy. The fish used to grow real big. and in a month they outgrow their environment. and then you drop them into a bigger pot…
Anyways not yet got to buy a tank till now. Still contemplating. But I will definitely visit this place if I were to buy fish…

Love this shop. They have reasonable prices. They carry things that the large chains don’t and won’t. They are knowledgable in their own right and will do special orders if they can. They are polite and locally owned and operated!!! Definitely will continue to shop here for all my aquatic and aviary needs.

The Aviarium seems like a bit of a hike from metro Atlanta, but if you are an aquarium enthusiast in search of healthy animals at decent prices, it is entirely worth the trip. The Aviarium splits its energy (and its real estate) between birds and fishes — they have an interesting array of birds and bird supplies, but I’m going to focus on the aquarium stuff.
This is not the hugest LFS you’ll ever see: they have a couple dozen tanks, but a lot is crammed into those tanks! The people who work there seem to know what they’re doing and are happy to lend some advice and feedback as well as sell livestock. Bill in particular is great.
In my ongoing quest to do a census of the Atlanta area’s aquarium stores’ saltwater pricing, I’ll mention that The Aviarium sells pre-​mixed saltwater (BYOB) for $.50 a gallon, the best price that I’ve come across.
Their livestock are well cared for and their tanks look very nice. Prices seem reasonable.
Go check out their enormous Bumblebee Grouper — he is 22 inches and while he will nip at strangers fingers, he lets Bill pet him. Gorgeous fish — wish I had the 500 gallon tank that he needs to live in!
