First time in and the owner was extremely helpful with setting up my humble betta tank. So nice to have a locally owned option other than the big box stores. Will definitely be back!
They were very nice and fairly knowledgeable. They did sell me a pregnant guppy that gave birth the next day, as long as they arent too inbreed it will be a bonus.
Mike has always been very helpful. He always makes time to answer all my sons questions. He keeps a clean and organized store and we love coming here
Excellent store for fish supplies and even ordering fish that are not in stock. Very helpful and educated owner.
He is a very helpful person and takes time with his customers. He loves his fish they are well cared for as well! He also builds tanks!!! Very good prices!!! If he doesnt have what you want/need he will order almost anything for you! I would definitely recommend him for all of your fish care needs!!!
Theyre very helpful keeping my newbie wife informed to the fish keeping hobby.
The greatest place to get fish in the entire state of Michigan always a great experience great prices and very clean tanks very knowledgeable always teaching me something new every time I go in there
The owner is very enthusiastic and caring of his animals. He will happily answer questions and introduce you to any of his various species. He even fed some large fish for my son to watch! His prices are extremely good! He will order specific fish that youre looking for, too.
There is not a better place to go for all your fish needs in the entire state of Michigan. Rare fish, amazing prices, top notch service and expertise. Whether youre a novice, knowledgeable or an expert of all things aquatic, this is your one-stop shop.
This is not your normal fish store, its better. The prices are very reasonable, staff are very knowledgeable and friendly and are always willing to help educate you on the different fish they have or what you currently have in your tank (if you have a picture) and what to or not to home together. If you are looking for beautiful colors or just something totally different, this is where you want to go. Our aquariums are stocked with fish only from here.
Great place for fish. Very knowledgeable people and awesome selection.
My new favorite fish store! Michael is extremely knowledgeable and made my experience awesome! They have a wide, growing selection of species and out of all the fish stores around, he has fish the other stores don’t carry! If he doesn’t have what you are looking for, he will do his best to get it. HIGHLY recommend!!!!
Disappointing. Spent $91 in 2 days, had 2 die in 2 days, and another 4 get eaten by an aggressive fish that I didnt even know I had selected. I had asked for a ram cichlid to keep the other ram cichlid company, and that is not what I received. I texted the owner twice to simply find out what kind of fish it was but even though he read my text, didnt bother responding. (Google lens says Jaguar cichlid but I still dont know) So I heard Flip Aquatics is pretty awesome for buying online, so thats what Ill be doing from now on.
New store just opened, lots of nice fish.
Drove an hour to get fish from the shop to find a closed early sighn will not be returning
Amazing experience! Very helpful, informed, and personable owner. 10/10 will be returning. Also has an amazing stock of freshwater fish at reasonable prices! Very impressed by this locally owned fish store.
Today was our first visit and we will definitely be back!! So nice to have a store with healthy fish at a great price. The owner is a fish guy and is very knowledgeable and helpful. Also carries fish that you wont find anywhere else.
Great staff, Mike was great with explaining on how to set up and use the filter my husband purchased. Amazing selection of fish love my new Zebras and Guppys. Highly recommended this place.
I purchased some fish and a rare pleco about 2 months ago. The communication between myself and the store owner for my own special order was amazing. The tanks he has are in immaculate condition. He doesnt overstock the tanks. While this store is small, the amount and types of fish he is able to get in is amazing. Dont see it? Ask and he can probably get it. The fish are healthy and getting fatter each day lol, and theyre very hardy, disease-free fish. I drove one hour there and back just for the fish and I dont regret it. Fair prices, nice guy, helpful. And he is buddies with another fish shop I highly recommend too, who has been in the business for a long time (store in Livonia called Fantastic Fins). He has a good reputation within the Facebook fish group community, and amongst other fish ships in Michigan. Highly recommend him and am looking forward to my next purchase. :) He also gets a wide variety of plants in, but I havent made a plant purchase just yet... But hell be my next go to trip for sure.P.S. to owner, I think that Wabenmuster pleco is actually a girl... But theyre growing wonderfully. :)
Small store but nice owner. Still growing. Mike is very knowledgeable.
All employees I’ve conversed with are Very Knowledgeable and give fast and friendly service. It is a place for aquarists and even people new to the hobby that really enjoy it. Many variety’s of fish that I haven’t encountered at many other aquarium stores. Got a green terror awhile ago From here and it is thriving and as healthy as the day I got it. Definitely worth a visit👍🏼.
Great place to buy freshwater fish. Owner knows his stuff and keeps an awesome selection. Awesome prices as well. Will definitely be back.
Very disappointed. bought several fish and within two days they my tank got ick. one of the fish I bought ended up being covered by ick and died along with four other fish including my $45; fresh water shark. I spent $60 in treatments to get rid of it too. Will never buy here again. I normally drive to ocean and seas to get my fish and will continue to do so. not only that but they only give you a 24hr guarantee unlike oceans that gives you two weeks.
The owner is so kind which if anything makes anyone want to come back! I’ve never had healthier fish than from him. I 10/10 recommend this place!
Michigan Tropicals always takes the time to help choose the right fish for our tanks. They are also more than willing to answer any questions we may have and to tell us if they dont know the answer, rather than making it up to get the sale. We have never had a bad experience with them and would highly recommend them.
Great place. Very helpful staff willing to go the extra step. This is my new go to aquarium store. If you dont see it ask them. Thanks for the Amano Shrimp.
Great local fish store! Michael is very knowledgeable and will do what he can to get a fish youre looking for. I highly recommend the be your first place for fish!
Very knowledgeable owner, fish are well-cared for in clean, good-sized tanks, and he breeds his own stock as well. Its good to see more local businesses in Flint again.
Youre welcome. Hopefully I can get these convicts to breed. Love the store and cant wait to see it expand.
Great place! If they dont have what your looking for always willing to do special orders!
Very excited to have a good fish store in Flint. Their selection is great and the quality of fish is outstanding. You can tell they take pride in what they do.
Highly recommend!!! Ive bought all my fish here! The gentleman was very knowledgeable and friendly answered any questions I had. I wont go anywhere else from now on!
Great staff, am Very knowledgeable an up friendly.
Every time I visit theres more tanks up and decent selection of fish. Im sure if they dont have what your looking for they could get it. Lots of good information and advice. Keep up the good work👍👍
I walked in knowing very little about caring for tropical fish and left feeling more confident with my purchase and knowledge of my new pets! My aquarium has evolved so much! Thank you Michigan Tropicals!
Knowledgeable and helpful owners! Informative rather than judgemental. Definitely will return! 10/10. Good people that care about the hobby on a full spectrum.
Not very clean, first time there and guy was taking phone calls instead of helping customers in store. They didnt wear mask, we were only ones with mask on and fish was over priced and tanks were dirty. Will not go back!
Nice little shop. Friendly staff, well be back.
First time in. Had a decent selection of freshwater community and aggressive. Tiny to huge. Traded in a couple big guys towards some new friends. Will definitely be back. Thanks!
Me and my wife just left Michigan Tropicals And got some fish. The fish was healthy and most of all the customer service was outstanding. We definitely will be going back he has a Variety of fish and other animals I’m well pleased
