"I come here strictly for dog food and bones. They have a deal with my brand where every tenth bag is free. They cut out the proof of purchase and keep it on file. That’s great customer service. It’s also a great pet shop. They have a ton of fish and a lot of birds. It’s a relaxing atmosphere to hear the birds. Really like this store."

"I remember when this place was on 95th and Kedzie. Love coming here. The atmosphere is awesome. The fish selection is huge. The birds are raucous and fun. The employees are generally nice."

"Found this GEM while searching for live mice for my python, it's probably the nicest store I've visited. Too bad it was a really quick stop, planning on coming back with there whole family."

"I’ve been out of the fish keeping hobby for about 5 years now so today was my first trip there in a long time. They’ve changed the place up and I love it so far. It’s definitely on the list of one of the cleanest shops I’ve ever been to. Pretty knowledgeable staff. I would like to see a bigger selection of tanks for purchase but I do understand the constraints of available space. Fish always appear healthy and when in doubt they quarantine the tanks properly. Very nice local shop. Prices vary as do most other shops that deal with livestock."

"Let me talk about the pros first. Probably the cleanest pet shop ive been to. I’m a fish guy, so i will talk about that. All their tanks are super clean and most of them are planted as well. A HUGE variety of fish and plants. Especially the different types of plants surprised me. No dead fish, everyone looks healthy. Now the cons. 1) Overpriced, but that is somewhat fine especially since the livestock and plants looked healthy and of good quality. 2) I expect the people working at the fish section to have a minimum knowledge about fish, but i do understand not everyone knows about everything. So that is okay as well. But please do-not pass on wrong information to hobbyists. 3) The person working had no idea where the fish where. Since they have so many tanks, I couldn’t remember where i saw them. He kept on saying saying things like “we may not have them”, “they just came in, so Im not sure which section they are”, etc. So i finally took the time to find it myself and then tell him where they were. I hope these things change, so i can update this to a 5star rating. Definitely going back!"
