Fish’s Paradise

Always something new to see here. A wide selection of fish, both fresh and saltwater as well as tanks and accessories. Customer service can be hit or miss though. The place is also kinda dark and cramped but that seems to be a fish store thing.

I have been in the marine aquarium hobby for 20 years and I have never seen such quality fish elsewhere, seriously the quality of fish in this establishment is unparalleled. The owner or his son are very knowledgeable and helpful. They have just the right variety of fish freshwater and marine along with a fantastic selection of dry goods and frozen foods at very reasonable prices.

I don’t know how to describe how awesome this place is! I go there every month to get salt water for my aquarium and I often leave with something else. They have a great selection of fish (both salt water and fresh) and anything else you might need to set up an aquarium. Everyone who works there is super kind and helpful! Highly recommended :)

I love this place. After using many different fish stores I’ve found this one to be the best. The staff is very knowledgable and most of them very helpful (especially Jacob!!!) I haven’t had any problems with the fish I have boughten from here.

This is a family run business since 1968, and they really know what they are doing. The building is a stand alone and doesn’t look like much from the outside– but this is what makes this place a truly hidden gem!
I’ve literally been coming here my entire life. When I was in elementary school (not too too long ago!) My parents had a fish tank built into a wall in the living room behind the couch. They decided that they should have a salt water tank– and then realized that maintaining such a tank was quite an undertaking. To help them they enlisted the assistance of Fish’s Paradise. From fish to sea horses, feeding and water changes, FP was there every step of the way.
The tank that they have at the front of the store is nothing short of impressive. The fish in the tank are not for sale– and are roughly the size of a small dog. If you are ever there for feeding time it is quite a site! The size of the fish is a testament to the caliber of expertise that the owners have with keeping up fish tanks.
Getting back to my story– I hadn’t been to to FP in a while– Shortly after MR L. and I got married– we inherited a 10 gallon tank with a pleco and the fish tank quickly became our hobby. We decided that we would have a fresh fish tank and started with easy fish like guppies, and then progressed to the aggressive cichlids. After a few months it dawned on me that I had to introduce the Mr to FP– and he was quite impressed (which is difficult to do, so it felt like a real win!)
There is about about half the store dedicated to salt water fish, invertebrates, and other salt water animals — the displays are quite beautiful and they get in some really exotic species — but of course I am more interested in the fresh water fish of which there is also a wide variety and some exotic fish and plecos as well. The people who work here really know a lot about fish and are extremely helpful with picking out fish for your tank.
This is a great place for novice and advanced hobbyists.

This shop is called «Fish Paradise» they specialize in aquarium fish and supplies.
Their fish are hand picked from the distributers, and they will not sell you a fish if it doesn’t look right to them! the owner and his son are very knowledgeable in all aspects of the hobby. The store has been open for over 40 yrs, and they carry a full-​line of parts for most old aquarium equipment!
I give them a 10!!!

Coming in out of the sweltering FL sun into cool darkness you are hit with the «pan-​sized» cichlid tank and right away and all you can think of is WOW !
In business since 1968, (about as long as I have had aquariums myself)…they know a lot about fish and probaly have a doctoral degree in how to run a fish store ! I thought it was about ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ fresh/​salt and a good variety of turtles, invertebrates, and a few walls of small tank divisions of spectacular salt water fish. Many sizes of the same type of fish and oddities you do not see in other fish stores in the area. The prices were reasonable and it was a pretty complete collection of anything to do with fish. All the fish looked healthy and the staff offered assistance to me. but hey IT WAS VERY APPARENT. I needed a better job to buy a big, big, tank and have them set it up for my own personal eye candy.
They do sell tanks, filters, medicines and overhearing the staff they sound quite experienced, Their business card says they do custom installations and servicing as well. so give them a look. At the very least you will have the full picture of what can be care for well in your tank given the experienced instruction of this classic neighborhood fish store.

This place is great!
I have a 55 gallon cichlid tank and 29 gallon planted tetra tank. I’ve been coming here since my first tank of 10 gallons.
More freshwater than salt but still a good selection of saltwater fish. They’ll order anything you’re looking for.
They helped me with all my questions and even took my catfish on trade when it got too big for my 55. I had no idea what I was doing at first.
If you’re starting a tank for the first time these guys can help.

Yet another fish store review… can you tell I am a bit obsessed with my tank?
This stand alone building seems like a bunker when you first walk in the door. While walking around I found the place rather dark, with almost all of the light coming from the tanks, and only dim over head lighting. I was informed this is to help teh tanks remain alge free, and for the health of the fish, so I have nothing negative to say except watch your step.
The fish here are impressive. If you are a large tank owner, this is your place. While I have not personally bought fish here, I have bought an emergency bubbler, and a tiki hut decoration. It is the tiki hut that earns the four star review. I was looking for just the right fun item for my tank. Something that looked nice, was of good quality, and had places for my fish to hide. I found the exact piece that I wanted, but it was in display tank, and would be rather difficult to take out. The owner and I walked around the store and could not find a second one, I found out that it is because the item was hand painted. When we did not find a second one, I said it was okay and not to worry about it. The owner wavied his hand and told me to wait, while he did go into the tank, retrieve the item, and cleaned it up to see to me. Note, this was a 19 dollar sale for him. Nothing expensive or ground shattering. Just a simple sale, but he was willing to go through all of that effort to see that the cumsomer was given just what he wanted. (excuse the royal he here, thank you).
The place is a bit out of my way, and that is the only reason that this is not my primary fish supply store.
