Blue Fish Aquarium

My daughter wanted an aquarium and fish for her birthday, the fish that glow, so this seemed the perfect place. Got all we needed :) thanks again for the help!

This place is AMAZING! I can’t believe I’ve never been there before. The staff was so amazing and helpful and answered all of my questions. I spoke with Damon quite a bit and he was so awesome and really helpful. This place is so cool to walk through that honestly even if you’re not planning on getting a fish or reptile it’d be a nice trip to just walk through there for a couple hours and look at everything. Thanks for the great service! :)

Love this place. It was our first visit here and I was very impressed with it. They have a great selection of fish and supplies and are also very knowledgeable. We were able to bring in a fish for a trade situation that wasnt working out in our tanks which was also great. Very friendly and helpful staff also.

Great prices. Very knowledgeable staff. This is honestly my favorite place in Michigan for aquarium needs.

This is a great fish store. Their selection is great. They have a billion different types of guppies and a good plant selection! If you are in this area it is a great place to go for supplies. They also have some beautiful display tanks. They also seem to do a great job at rehoming fish!

If your looking for fish this is the place to go in Grand Rapids. They have a huge selection of fresh and salt water fish available. Along with tanks and decorations.Reason for the 3 stars is because the aquatic plants from here are contaminated with snails (trumpet snails) which will spike ph and ammonia. Plus they reproduce like crazy!

Best place around if you have any questions about fish or reptiles. And have anything you could ask for when it comes to aquariums and terrariums!

I love this place!! Exotic species and hard to find products. A job to shop here looking at not things. Highly recommend.

This was the most amazing aquarium store I have had the opportunity to explore. The numbers and sizes of different species -- both freshwater and saltwater -- was very impressive! The staff was very knowledgeable and courteous. I can hardly wait to visit again!

This is hands down the best aquarium store in the area. I drove 90 mi one way to come here. Its awesome! The staff is knowledgeable as well and very accommodating.

They have so many different salt water fish, corral, and fresh water fish, and reptiles its alot more than normal store would have!! We went inside and a gentleman helped us get everything we needed to set up a 65-gallon salt water tank! From the tank down to the water and stand for it. We r so glad to have what we got from there!! Thanks so much everyone at Blue Fish Aquarium you were so awesome!!!!!

I was beyond pleased to see that they are requiring masks and keeping the door literally locked to those without, who are being willfully ignorant during the pandemic.Thank you for the precautions for your employees and customers!They have a great selection of products & healthy fish, plus a friendly and knowledgeable staff.One time someone even took the time to explain to me how to build a flow restricting valve for my pump, what parts I needed, and where to go get them.Keep it up, and Ill keep shopping there for all my aquarium needs.

Great pet store of animals that live in glass cages. They have some cat and dog stuff as well but I dont go in for that. The freshwater fish collection is great as are freshwater plants and supplies. The reptiles and amphibians are nice. The saltwater fish collection is great as well. Although I feel like lately the number of corals have been down. This place doesnt carry small furry animals.

Great helpful service and a large selection. Experts helped me a few times setting up my brand new reef tank. I now have a bunch of little swimming buddies thanks to you guys!

We had to wait 30 minutes to get inside due to social distancing, which I understand.We specifically wanted the reptile department to look at the turtles.We found a tortise we were going to put our names down on a wait list for, but one of the employees asked if we needed help and when my daughter and I answered we were all set she informed us we have other people waiting so if youre just browsing keep that in mind. Since we waited for 30 minutes we should have been able to spend at least 15 looking at the department!!The employees were all grouped together, no one was even at the register to give our information to. Would not waste my time in line to be treated like that again.

Super staff. Great freshwater and saltwater fish. Have lizards.

A great pet store. People are really nice and helpful. I have been to a lot of pet stores in my years and this is a great one.

I spent $100 here because I found so much stuff that I need for my turtles and aquarium. They have so many fish here. They have most of what you would need for salt water aquariums, fresh water aquariums, reptiles, amphibians, and they even have some things for cats and dogs as well. I highly recommend checking this place out even if it is just to look at all the animals. I will be back at some point to buy some shrimps

Awesome Saltwater Corals and Fish and Everything! Very knowledgeable and friendly workers too!

Very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. Huge selection of fish and reptiles. Didnt try to sell us anything we didnt need and were extremely helpful with choosing just the right gekko for my son. Highly recommend and well definitely be back.

My girlfriend and I love to go here. They have a good variety of goldfish food! Would be nice to see more variety of goldfish themselves to be sold there!

Friendly staff, knowledge too. Good selection. They sell a lot, so inventory is always changing

Nice place to go fish shopping. Large selection of both fresh & salt water.

Friendly, knowledgeable, patient staff. Great selection and variety of both freshwater and saltwater fish

What do you want?? A fish.? A coral.?An aquarium? Let them know they are there for you. They teach you about the pet the condition it needs to be in and also help you to set up and exquisite display at home. The best per store that I have ever been to so far. Go Bluefish Aquarium.

Best Aquarium store I have ever been too always has what I need

Lots to look at and choose from. Good prices. Helpful staff!

They have a great selection of fish and supplies. The employees are very knowledgeable and helpful with problems you have with your aquarium.

Really loved this place before COVID-19 came into place, but their regulations compared to all other businesses around have become very extreme, along with some staff becoming quite short tempered, this has led me to a very negative view of the establishment.

Nice products, good variety of pets such as fresh and salt water fish, reptiles and snakes. I do feel they are a bit on the pricier side. The Staff has always been nothing but professionals, as well as, friendly.

Very knowledgeable, large selection of fish and reptiles, helpful.

Was awesome, lots of employees ready to help. Nothing like the aquarium shops in my town. Ive never seen anything like it.

Wow, they have a lot of stuff in that store! So, great selection, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Fish (freshwater, saltwater), snakes, lizards, frogs, turtles, hermit crabs, etc, etc. Prices seem reasonable, all my new tank members are home and doing well.

Cool place. Good prices. Staff was kinda rude. One guys was awesome but when we said we wanted to purchase a tank, the girl helping told us to grab it, as we were walking up, holding a big tank, we got yelled at for “cutting” in line and the girl helping us started helping a new customer and told us to wait while the guy came in and helped us. Ridiculous that when we were being helped first, she dropped us and made us wait.

The staff is amazingly helpful for ALL of your freshwater, saltwater, and reptile needs!! They will walk you through every detail of getting your tank set up and cycled. They will test your water for free. They have a great selection of livestock, aquarium plants, tank decor, and a section for your furry baby. Patty and Taylor are A+++

Very knowledgeable staff and always fast response time for on line

They have a knowledgeable staff as well as a decent variety of reptiles and fish! When I was last there they were very helpful not pushy to make a sale witch is important to me! My only reason for 4☆ is because they are VERY pricey! Seems that aquariums and habitats and what not is marked quite high! But with that said I would definitely recommend Blue Fish to anyone interested in snakes,fish etc just be prepared of costs!

Connor helped me get a couple cichlids the other day, he was very knowledgeable of compatible species and gave some suggestions on rocks and substrate that would suit the fish well. very good experience, very good employee. Collin offered fantastic advice in the salt water department and encouraged me that setting up a salt water tank is not as difficult as it seems.

Great selction and service.

Nice place. Animals are kept clean. Not always good with keeping frozen rodents stocked. The bearded dragons I saw definitely needed more space to move around. Most staff is very knowledgeable but some are not.

Highly commendable staff who are patient and caring. They take time to share info and do what it takes for both the customer and the creatures in transition.

Addi was very friendly and helpful!

All my aquarium pets are doing great. Very kind and knowledgeable staff.

Found the salt water tanks filthy, looked like no one did any tank maintenance during the lockdown, after calling to see verify they were open at 11, got there only to find out they were open at 12, staff kicked me out cause my mask was not covering my entire mouth, couldnt hardly breathe cause it was so humid in there,. This used to be an awsum store! Not anymore,.

Very pretty! Fish and other animals were curious and lively. Im not a professional nor a hobbyist, so I cant vouch for the condition of the tanks - but nothing seemed wrong from a first glance. Everything is carefully labelled and the staff is usually around to answer questions or provide conversation about the animals. Got to see a chameleon feeding by absolute chance. Wonderful place!

Love the variety. Very nice workers.

Awesome staff. Very knowledgeable and helpful.

This place is very hit or miss, with both service and products/animals.

Very nice selection of fish though there were communication issues which led me to drive up from out of town for no reason (fish were on quarantine but was only told they were available)

Used to be a place to get quality equipment. But sadly my last few purchases have been lack luster to say the least. Still a good store. Just poor quality accessories.

A wonderful aquarium store, roomy, clean, very well stocked, with many attractive displays. One of the most appealing independent Local Fish Stores Ive ever visited!

Wow, this has got to be the best all around Pet store in the state of Michigan. Saltwater and freshwater fish and supplies, freshwater shrimp ( many varieties), reptiles and supplies. Prices are great and staff is very, very knowledgeable, friendly, and caring about your experience in their store. Put this one on your bucket list.

A nice aquarium shop. Lots of variety and friendly workers.

Excellent store with a great variety of livestock and dry goods. Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable, great resource for all aquarium needs

Great place to buy fish or aquariums huge selection!!

What a great place!!! It’s well stocked and the employees are super nice, friendly and knowledgeable in everything... the girl that helped us, unfortunately i forgot her name, said she’s been there 5 years and could not have been more helpful... i will be back often for my fish and aquarium needs.

Friendliest and most helpful staff! Thank you for choosing to educate me instead of letting me waste money. You are awesome!

There are so many varieties of fish here. I love looking at the fish. The people here are very helpful and friendly.

Very high quality fish.

Pretty cool place

Best place to get fish. Good quality fish, very helpful and knowledgeable staff.

Blue Fish Aquarium is dangerous lol youll walk in not knowing what to get, to having a full set up and knowing how to put it together all in your hands walking out the door. Amazing place for almost any animal need, reptile, fish and dogs and cats

Excellent selection of fish. Everyone is incredibly knowledgeable and all the tanks are in great health

Huge shop with a good variety of fish, large and small and much more. Very fascinating.

This store used to be so great. I used to come here since 2010. I was into ro whatever water tanks with their water and everything, loved my plants!. Last year I set up a salt wate tank and it was great with great service spent a lot there over the last year but haven’t been in in a while well i bought a fish two weeks ago and it died but when I come in they keep saying to talk to someone else I never get a straight answer everyone wants me to come back to talk to some girl I never seen!!! i wasted enoug time been in multiple times I won’t be back preusses pet in lansing would never do this or scan me out of my fish money big shame you think they want to keep what little customers they have left this virus really shows the difference between the two stores!!,

Full service from A to Z, including a full selection of fresh and saltwater tropical fish, all imaginable accessories, knowledgeable team members, and reasonable prices!

Awesome fish, reptiles. The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly.

Good store, friendly people. I recommend not going during the day on weekends though. They dont have enough people working the freshwater area so it can take a while to get fish or plants.

One of the best aquarium stores in the west michigan area that i have found, they generally have all of the specialized equipment, substrates, plants, fish, ect. that i am looking for. The staff is friendly, helpfull and knowledgable. If your looking for something special they will order it for you

Lots of fish to choose from... Customer service was ok.

Great customer service!! Needed help selecting some fish and the young man who helped us was awesome! Very patient and informative. We drove an hour to check this place out for fish and it did not disappoint. Will go back again!

Perfect place to get a new Betta fish. My daughter had a blast looking at all the different types they had. In addition, the fish has been healthy and prosperous!

Honestly I feel its the best aquarium store in the Grand Rapids area. Brackish, fresh, or salt water they got it. Need a more specific fish, they can aquire it. You can also find reptiles, amphibians, spiders, and scorpions. There is a newer section in the front devoted to dogs.

This place is AMAZING! The selection of tank decor is excellent and the fish are thriving and well taken care of. The staff is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this store.

The staff was super helpful and informative without being condescending like some other places. Definitely recommend and will absolutely be back.

The staff was very helpful, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Prices were on par for a local specialty shop, and I have no issue supporting just that. This is my new go to for all things aquatic! Of course they also have exotic reptiles and spiders, and was the only store that had turtle stone substrate. Their product selection is the most eclectic Ive seen. Thanks Blue Fish Aquarium!

They always have quality fish and reptiles. Love the atmosphere. Definitely worth stopping by if youre in the area.

Staff is always friendly and very knowledgeable.

Great fish store with a great selection of fish

Awesome place with very helpful and knowledgeable staff. Has everything and more for aquarium needs.

Lots to choose from and look at it. The staff is pretty good. Definelty run by people who care.

We love going here always warm in winter, its a mini escape from the cold quality of products and assistance is wonderful well staffed and knowledgeable service.

This is our go to place for anything related to fish or reptiles. They really seem to know their stuff. Our last two visits we were helped by a very surly young man that made us feel like we were idiots for asking questions and taking up his precious time. Sorry pal - you may know you some stuff but that doesnt make you automatically better than us.Otherwise - I would highly recommend the place.

I’ve had mixed experiences with Blue Fish. The employees have, for the most part, been friendly and helpful. They have decent prices for most products and a great selection of reptile supplies. They have a small selection of dog stuff, but what they do have is high quality. I’m surprised and impressed at their selection especially since they specialize in aquariums. I was a bit disappointed to see lettuce (not one of the many recommended dark greens) being fed to their juvenile bearded dragons, as well as sand in the enclosure, as these are both inapporpriate care for these lizards (especially as babies, because it puts them at risk of impaction which is deadly).

They have beautiful saltwater fish .. I bought a gorgeous Lion fish prices are reasonable.

Friendly knowledgeable staff, great selection of reptiles, fresh and saltwater. Awesome establishment

The only pet store close to me that sells Dubia roaches, which can be hard to find. I always enjoy visiting and looking at all the fish, and they have a great selection. Their employees are very helpful.

We at Apogee Therapy Center love Blue Fish Aquarium! we have a 45 gallon and a 75 gallon fish tank at our facility and they are a huge part of the atmosphere. Blue Fish has been extremely helpful in providing us with excellent fish and with information on how to maintain our tanks. We Highly recommend Blue Fish Aquarium!!!

Ive been shopping at Blue Fish since they moved to their Wilson location, so thats quit a few years now. I will say that they are a great store overall. Im giving them one star because of my experience there last Saturday. I went in just after 5pm to get drift wood and a plant I picked out my drift wood then started looking for help for a fish tank plant. I looked for about ten minutes and couldnt find any one free to help me so I walked up to the register and waited in line for another ten minutes. They were busy so I wasnt too offended by the wait. When it was my turn I asked for help getting a plant to rubber band to the drift wood (so it would attach itself to the wood over time). The woman at the register said that she didnt know how to do that, but I was in luck because the guy in charge (the manager or owner or something) was standing there. I asked him for help and he told me that they were to busy to help me and that I would have to come back another day. I waited twenty minutes for help just to be denied service. Im not sure why its so much work to put a rubber band around a small piece of wood and not around a bag of fish but I am sure that I will not be returning to that store.

This place is great! They have answered all my questions and if they did not know, they went and found the answer for me. Friendly staff and tons of products for a reasonable price.

Great place for fish and tanks and all things that goes with them. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly.

Animals are well cared for there. Unlike many other stores Ive been too. (VIPets). They have a really unique selection

Staff is pretty knowledgeable and the store itself is awesome to just walk through. Its like a free trip to an aquarium!

Best place for fish and reptiles in the grand rapids metro area.

Really like this place there is really no where else to go for fish or aquarium related items that compares. My only problem is that every time I go in they have yellow post it notes all over the aquariums that says the fish are spoken for. What about the people that drive 25 miles to buy fish and all I see is those annoying yellow notes all over that says the fish are spoken for. I even put my name on a list and have never gotten a call back. Not sure how this will keep me going back. The staff does know there stuff, I will give them that.

They had the information /products I was looking for. I didnt order anything yet. I might in the future.

Amazing selection of everything fish, large terrestrial reptile selection as well.

Great place to visit! Knowledgeable and friendly staff.

Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Fish selection is great and they keep them healthy.

I love this store! The staff is super helpful and knowledgeable. They have a huge variety of fish!
