Great local fish store. Clean, organized, and priced. Staff are very friendly and extremely knowledgeable in the reef hobby. Not the best place for fish but coral selection is always outstanding. They also have a great assortment of filtration equipment and reef supplements/salt. Highly recommended.
Stopped in today and picked up 3 frags $20 each. Great price and healthy. Spent some time talking with Ken who is super friendly and helpful. Gave me a lot of suggestions and recommendations for a new build I plan on doing. Something I did not know which Im glad I do now is the MAP equipment in the store is same price as BRS.10/12/2019: 2nd pic is one year later.Great store and service, thanks Ken.
Brian was super nice & helpful with teaching me how to get my fish tank back up and running !! Nice place and staff is knowledgeable of products!!
Great local store stocked with high quality equipment and products. Very responsive to message on Fb and friendly worker when arrived. Corals look healthy and reasonable, haven’t purchased any but will in future.
I’m new to the hobby, my daughter wanted a small fish tank, and got a Coralife BioCube 16g. It has been a 12 month roller coaster, to say the least. Why? Because like me, there is many of you doing your own research online and coming up with your own conclusions, of what you need to do to your fish tank. Rather than leaving it to experts, like the owner Ken, who has saved my fish tank from crashing (not once, but twice). I have a beautiful garden of LPS and softies, 25 in total that, I patiently wait for Ken to have in his store.The first time, I thought I should be ok if I just test for Nitrate and Phosphate with the API kit. I was wrong, those kits are too weak and Ken recommended buying a better water testing kit like Hanna or Red Sea. I was slowly killing my corals and I didn’t even know it. The nitrate levels were through the roof, when I took a sample of my water to Ken. He has all the kits available in his store and if he doesn’t have it, he can get it. Ken recommended water changes twice a week, until my tank cleared up all the nitrates. He was right!The second time, I read that Red Sea has a product called NoPoX. I had developed green hair algae in some parts of my tank and I read that NoPoX can help control the algae. I read the instructions and used the right dosage. I went on a trip for 4 days. When I returned from my trip, all the Corals has lost their color, the Zoanthids were tightly shut, my Ricordeas, where tucked in, my chalices where immediately beaching. I knew I was in trouble. I went to Ken the very next day and did a 75% water change to my tank. He recommended another product for the green hair algae and told me to patiently wait. Sure enough he was right again.My corals are opening up again, it has been a long week of bitting my nails, to see how much damaged I caused. I only lost 2 montiporas, but I’m hoping they will come back, so I’m leaving the skeletons in my tank for now.Thank you Ken for saving my daughter’s aquarium, I will always come to you for advise.
So far this is by far my favorite store in Broward County! They have a great selection of corals, a ton of frags from 10 to 40 bucks. Lately, the had even better sps frags and fish. And no, their price isnt higher at all. Some people may have that impression just bc they sell some higher end equipment. But on average their price is pretty much the same as most stores around. On average their fish is in a much better condition than what I see on some other stores closer to me. Not quarantined fish, which I wish they had, but way better than many other places I have to say.
You know, it is so rare to find a fish store that with a knowledgeable staff! I have a coral tank, and the last thing i want to do is introduce a fish that will either attack my other fish, or worse yet, attack my corals. Other stores i get the sense they care only about the sale, and not the welfare of the animals. These guys are different!
Great Service and Very Excellent Employees
From the first day I walk in the store Ken was very nice and helpful. Ken is helping me start up my tank up. Now we are on phase two. In two weeks than he will help me with phase three. He told me he will continue helping me till it is done completely. Thank you Ken for your help I am glad I stop in. See you in 2 weeks.
We just found this store and couldnt be happier. Amazing selection of beautiful corals at a price point for everyones budget. Knowledge, helpful and friendly staff. Its worth the trip just to see the magnificent display tank.
This is the best store by far due to the service that is provided by knowledgeable staff that knows what they are talking about. Specially that fat white guy who goes out of his way to help and inform you even if you make a purchase or not. Blue seas offers the best service and products in the business. I love every time I go to this place.
Top store, the guys working in it are very knowledgeable and friendly. They answer any question you may have regarding saltwater tanks, corals and fish.Come with time as it gets busy there often, this is not a McDonalds where you go in and rush out.Prices are very competitive and fair. Quality of corals and fish are hands down amazing.
You pay top dollar. And get top dollar corals there. Not a place to bargain shop.
BSA is a great store with everything you need ranging from great selection on top notch equipment, great live stock and all the way through great friendly and reliable advise. If they don’t have it, they can get it. Now with their new expansion coming soon, they are only going to be better than what they already are, making them my first go to place for all my aquarium needs. I’ve been in the hobby a long time and did step away for a few years but always stayed up to date on its progression or at least I thought so, then I met Rami the owner of BSA and quickly realized I had more to learn; Rami is a standup guy with a world of experience in the industry and as genuinely helpful as they come. I recently had someone (NOT BSA) start an aquarium project for me and it was the biggest mistake I have ever made in the hobby, thankfully, I was able to get Rami to come help me out with the cluster mess this other person left me with and Rami went above and beyond the call to help me get things to where they need to be. I wish I would have gone with Rami from the beginning! Not only was he knowledgeable and helpful but never stubborn or driven to do things one way and always presented me with options for doing things rather than trying to jam something down my throat. Additionally, I am very particular about who I allow in my home, Rami being a family man himself was alway super respectful of my home and family at all times and earned both my and my wife’s trust. He is one if not the most premiere dealer for Neptune Apex products and his knowledge of their system is second to none, which is great when setting up all the programming, wiring and configurations. Overall, BSA is a great business with great people and have earned my business and loyalty. They have points and rewards programs like many online places do and are local to our community which is great for us in South Florida. BSA gets an A+ in my book!
Great store with great prices and quality of their coral. The price you pay for the size/type of coral you get is awesome. Only giving it 3 stars because of the older man that works there. I have gone to the store multiple times and he never acknowledges me when I walk in even if we make eye contact. Doesnt bother to ask if I need any help or have any questions. Even if Im the only person there... Kinda rude...
Great place, friendly staff, with healthy fish and coral. I highly recommend shopping here!
Starting my first salt tank, employees were more than helpful and patient. Great store, clean, and well organized. Fish and coral all seem impecably healthy. So happy this store is literal seconds from my house.
Really nice selection of higher end corals. I go there about once a week for water changes, always have a nice conversation with whoever is behind the counter. Medium sized selection of fish but they arent the crappy filler fish, these guys carry some of the nicer things to put in your tank. Would always recommend Blue Seas.
Love this store, amazing selection of corals at great prices. Nice selection of reef fish and aquarium supplies. Always worth the trip.
These guys have a nice little shop. They focus more on coral than fish or dry goods but all three are available. You can find some great $5-10 frags here sometimes. Staff are always friendly.
Went there and was making a purchase 3 year old duaghter need to use restroom and was denied to use restroom and was told to go down the mall to a restroom.Thats what i really customer service and a friendly local shop.Will not be doing business there.To deny a child to use a restroom is totally wrong nobody should be denied especially a child..... It was a really nice heavy set bald person not sure if he was owner.There is a law to refuse restroom to paying customers...
Great little shop for coral, clams and some fish. They do full testing for a fee ($7 for a full salt water test) and individual component tests for a $1 each. We have purchased many coral crib here and it all thrives really well. It can range from $10 on up to $100 depending what you are looking for. There really is something for everyone.The sales associates are very knowledgeable and ready to help or give advice as needed. We shop here all the time for the service alone.
Two thumbs up, but had to edit my review. Stopped in on 5/11/15 and was given the cold shoulder from cashier Weston; salesperson 100117. Im the only customer in the store and he didnt greet me only thing he ask what type of water I wanted, because of the blue five gallon pail I was carrying. I wanted to by some corals, but he acted like I was bothering him so I decided to get my water and leave. Other than that love the place!!!
Amazing customer service from friendly and experienced staff. Great selection of coral.
The best aquarium store around! They carry a huge selection of corals and all the best supplies. Worth the drive!
Great store with a huge selection of corals. Lowest cost & most helpful employees!
Omg found such awesome stuff good prices and I really enjoy my time here will totally come back and enjoy it again
Excellent selection. They make sure thier frags are well settle and grown onto the frag plug before releasing them for sale.
This is my go to store, the staff are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable.They have never hesitated to answer any questions that I have had. definitely the best prices I have seen by far.
Wonderful little shop. Amazing selection of Corals and friendly staff. Will visit again
Great customer service
Looks great. Staff is great. This place is awesome. Great selection of corals great quality. Great prices
Great store and even better staff!
One of the few stores like this in Sunrise. Good for quick stops to get fish food and such.
Most beautiful corals and frags ive seen in awhile. Combined with friendly and knowledgeable service as well as good prices will have me coming back.
Love this place, best aquarium store around! Huge selection of corals starting from just $10 all the way up to high end! They carry RO/DI, Sythetic Saltwater and Natural Saltwater. Staff is great and always helpful! Highly recommended!
Amazing store. Best selection. Always clean. Helpful employees.
One of the only stores I remain going to these days. The staff are nice. The place is clean. No false info ever received. just plain outright what a store should be, period.
I have recieved two orders now from Rami. Both have exceeded expectations. The corals are very healthy and the color is better that the photos he posts, unlike some other sites that overdo the PS. The customer service was great too. I called with a question about a posted coral and Rami answered them honestly. I would not hesitate to buy from BSA again!
Great place. This is my new go to place for fish and supplies. Great prices and awesome staff.
Great spot! Very knowledgeable staff and a well kept store.
Fair selection of frags ranging from $5+ . Staff is knowledgeable and willing to help.
Stopped by just to look and left with a lot of corals. Great selection, awesome prices and very inelegant helpful staff. Will be returning.
I could not believe how amazing this store was. So Organized and clean you would think they just opened last week.A friend of mine told me that i need to go visit but i never had the spare time to drive an extra 30 minutes out of my way. After i was there the first time, im there every friday afternoon getting whatever i need.This store has great prices, selection, and service.
As someone who frequently travels hours to visit various shops around Florida, Blue Seas is probably one of the best aquarium shops Ive ever been to. Their frags are some of the nicest, healthiest and cleanest youll find anywhere. Despite my religious dipping, Ive yet to find a single pest among the loads of frags Ive purchased from them. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable - always willing to share their experience/advice. I decided to visit them when figuring out where to order my Red Sea Reefer tank and finally make my transition over to the reefing hobby from planted tanks. Theyve guided me from near zero experience to running a maturing, successful mixed reef tank packed with SPS, Acros and LPS. Its always a pleasure stopping by the shop. My only complaint is I cant seem to walk out the shop without buying something I had no intent on purchasing haha.
One word, Stephan. The only reason to go to this store is because of this man. Water, 50 cents a gallon, corals $10-$300, Stephan...priceless.
Great store indeed wish this star review was six stars not five
Horrible customer service. I picked up some water for a friends tank. I was not even acknowledged by the employee when I entered. I stood around for several minutes until he was ready to help me. I didnt know what water my friend used exactly, so the cashier Rami looked up what he bought previously. He tells me mixed saltwater. I found out later it was actually RO water that was always bought. He was an unfriendly employee and he straight up lied about the water my friend buys ( because I dont know much about fish tanks and it was more money then RO water). I wont be going back to that place with employees of such integrity.
HEY THIS STORE ROCKS!!! I LOVE THE OPTIONS YOU HAVE WITH THE WATER OPTIONS, YOU HAVE REGULAR RO, NATURAL SEA WATER, AND THEY HAVE A MIX SATWATER OPTION!! STORE IS REAL CLEAN AND THE STAFF IS FREINDLY, GREAT STORE
Awesome selection of corals at great prices!
I have been mislead by so many companies in until I found Blue Seas they saved my tank and answered emergency calls on a Sunday!! I highly recommend this business if you get an aquarium...
Great prices and owner is very nice and friendly and helpful!
Very friendly staff, we are starting our first salt water and got a whole lot of information from these! Will definitely go back!
Their customer service sucks. Always end up waiting around.
Huge selection of corals!!! Great black friday deals...
Amazing store with great prices!! My one stop aquarium shop!
Great coral selection!
Wonderful livestock, great Corals.
Great place!
