Art Of Aquaria 7912 Gravois Road, St. Louis, MO 63123

"Incredible store. Staff members are knowledgeable on aquarium keeping and very friendly. The vibe of the store is upscale and reminds me of a gallery or museum. Fish are in great condition and their nano room is incredibly designed and stocked. The hard scaling room allows for customization of tank decor and gives an impressive edge against retail pet store plastic decorations and fake plants. The store has many live plants and fish of all shapes, sizes, and price ranges. Must visit for any hobbyists and aquarists in the 314. Very pleased with the danios and platy i received from them."

"Such a unique store with a great selection! The staff is always helpful with everything you need. This place is definitely my new go to for anything fish/aquarium."

"I recently have become enamored with Aquascape and community tanks. I have one tank that’s been going for several months and just started a 10 gallon shallow. I got almost everything I wanted for set up, animals tanks plants substrate etc.. from this store and I always come in with a million questions! Every employee I’ve talked with there is always so helpful and patient with me, and gives great suggestions. It seems like they really care about the hobby and getting other people into it! They have so many options for tanks/ lighting/ animals/ aquascapes/ plants (terrestrial and for aquarium)! It’s my favorite fish store to go to for all my freshwater tank needs and I always recommend it to anyone willing to listen!"

"I'm giving a 1 star because I'm tough on pet stores, especially those who specialize in Aquatics. I've been in the exotic hobbies for over 25 years and proper husbandry is #1. As I first walked in the door, I thought I was in for a treat seeing how well the Discus looked, but the fish room had many dead fish partially eaten, and deteriorating. I get it, not everything shows up healthy and the shipping process can be very stressful on fish. My problem is not removing the sick, dead, or injured fish from the tank. What really wrenched my gut were the Axolotls! Bellies full of sand and rocks to big to digest, tank was at room temperature which was mid to high 70's which is too high for axolotls, and one had a severe bacterial infection. I brought this to the attention of the employee who was working the counter, to which he replied, "we know, it's being treated." Please tell me how you are treating this axolotl, while it's in a tank with the very same rocks and sand that fills its belly, and while still in a display! The treatment of these axolotls is nothing less than cruel."

"These guys are amazing. I’ve been going to Art of Aquaria for about a year now. They are the only fish store in the St.Louis area that I’m willing to go to. I always have a positive experience when going in for a visit, and they have amazing customer service. I’ve never felt inclined to leave a google review for anyone, and these people definitely deserve it!"
