Bayparkway Aquarium — Attraction in New York

One of the few neighborhood fish store still open that's not petland or Petco. Been going to this fish store since Mr. Tam used to own this store and pass it along to his nephew. I still remember the small room in the back was used to house pet birds, and other tiny pets, but it's now a room to treat sick fish. The backyard of the store was used to store unused tanks and other pet items. I only know this because it was always left open when Mr. Tam own the store. The fish tanks are actually cleaned daily, and quality of the fish are pretty good. Probably due to the pandemic the koi pond in the front of the store was removed.

It also has all the tools you need, from tanks, to medicine, to food, to wood, (you get the point). Don't even get me started on the owner. He's talented and knows what he's doing, and helped me when I needed help with my aquarium. This fish store is definitely...

The owner is very knowledgeable about fish and takes great care of them. He's not scared of giving you recommendations and likes talking about fish-related topics. All the fish I've bought from the store are healthy (he quarantines them before selling), and they are reasonably priced as well as having a great selection of fish, although it really depends what has been sold out - so you'll have to just ask what's available or when the next shipment of the particular fish you want is coming in. This fish store is way better than the nearby Petco where I see dead fish all the time in...
