The Fish Store

Staff is very nice and knowledgeable. And yes you have to let them know when you are ready to get fish. No biggie.....

Well-kept fish. Pricier than stores such as Petsmart, but the quality and size of the fish make up for it. Will never buy a fish from Petco again. Employees were helpful. Had to go ask for help, but they were more than happy to help once I asked. My fish are healthy and I love the store!

Pretty great fish store overall. Employees were very knowledgeable and friendly, tanks weren't extremely clean but decent, selection of fish was pretty good and prices were acceptable. I'd recommend this store in Lincoln!

Last time I went here many of the tanks were dirty or had dead fish. And be careful to check your fish for ich(parasite) before you introduce them into a larger tank. Had a 20 gallon tank wiped out by a few sick fish I purchased here. Overall not happy. And this has happened on multiple occasions including with just beta fish. Be careful and inspect your fish for disease before leaving. Also staff is somewhat friendly but not all that helpful and they try and talk you into more expensive fish. 2 stars just because they have a selection of saltwater fish. And they are knowledgable about that.

excellent service and store. just wish they had more variety of freshwater fish. like the tropheus

The prices are a little higher than say Petco or PetSmart but you get a much more personalized service and the people that work there actually act like they care about helping you. And they seem to be very knowledgeable

I walked in this store and I witnessed 3 dumbazzes sitting behind the counter, on their phones and one was reading. I walked over to the where they housed the cory cats...stood their for at least 7 mins, and not one person got off their bigoted butt to asked me if I needed help or was their anything I was looking for...not to mention no one spoke to me when I walked in. Before I walked out, I let them know how I felt, and not one person apologized or tried to recover from how they treated me. If they don't want to service people that do not look like them, then just say so, post your sign, then you wont have to deal with it. Come out the closet.

They sell unhealthy fish knowingly. They as the "experts" should know that when a fish has no tail or has a concave stomach, that these fish should not be sold until they are healthy. And then when they die, it's all the customers fault and they won't own up to it. Do not buy fish from this place.

I don't understand the point of this place. The website says "If you are looking for a specific aquarium, supply, or critter, don't hesitate to contact us - we will try our best to find it for you". But if you DO ask about a specific fish with one of the moronic teens that staff the place, as I just did, they will act very pained and say they "could" take down my number but they doubt the owner will want to get that specific fish for me because if I don't come back he won't be able to sell it. But it's a fish they regularly carry, as I pointed out, they just never had females, and I'd like to be notified when they do. She didn't think they could tell (completely white) females and (bright red) males apart. So what, exactly, is the purpose of a local fish store? Might as well go to Petco.

Certainly better than any chain petstores (Petco, PetSmart), and I would much rather support a local business. Employees were kind and helpful, however was given complete misinformation about fiddler crabs. Theirs are kept in fully aquatic freshwater, while these crabs are only semi-aquatic and need brackish water. Any extended time in freshwater drastically reduces their lifespans. Was also told they do fine alone, while they really friends to socialize. Cool place, but please do your own research before making a decision, don't count on the employees to know everything.
