New Lucky Fish Aquarium & Pet Supply — Local services in New York

Excellent store!! This is a typical mom and pop store- imagine the mood of a cozy bodega. This is the best aquarium store in all of Brooklyn that I've found. They have great prices (BTW some of the prices were rubbed off since they were in the middle of washing the tanks but they were able to tell me prices on everything when I asked!), an excellent selection, and lovely people. Everyone was friendly, quick to help despite being busy, and readily answered all the questions I had.

I got around 10 fish, 10 shrimp, and several plants and they're doing great! (As I was told by the shop, you need to quarantine the fish and introduce slowly. Following this, my fish have been going strong!) This is my go-to store from now on!! If you're looking for new additions to your tank, this is a go-go-go!!!

FYI I noticed quite a few other reviewers mentioned that the workers were rude but I'd have to disagree and it leads me to wonder if they were being a "Karen". The workers' English wasn't the best but they definitely did try to accommodate me nonetheless. A couple times, they were busy with other customers but would still come back to me afterwards to help. (Frankly, if you're in a rush, a simple "excuse me" or "yoohoo" goes a long way). Also, if you are newer to aquarium keeping, you may wonder why there's a lot of goldfish being kept only in one tank and well.... those are feeder fish. It's a bit jarring but, that's the nature of keeping some of the more aggressive fish/bottom feeders (you might even see that some of the other tanks have some feeder fish being munched on but that, too, is fairly typical since it's necessary for these other fish's diets). So, all in all, don't let these other reviews discourage you...

I want to start by saying, I visit quite a few pet shops/ aquarium stores. This place I've been to 4 times within the past 4 months. They do at times carry fish you don't always see in your local shop, BUT you have to check carefully because a few of there fish on all seperate occasions are generally sick and skinny. They keep a large variety of community fish together (which is fine) but alot of times you'll see a few dead fish being eaten and some just being picked on. A few tanks either don't have a price for the fish or the writing is just worn out. I personally don't care about customer service, but if you are looking for some here...you are going to be disappointed. I've never been welcomed or asked if I needed help. I have purchased some oto cats, red eye lyretail swordtails, cories, etc. I enjoy the "mom and pop" shops and like to support my local stores, so hopefully...

I bought 2 goldfishes here only once and they are incredibly misguiding.

BOTH OF MY FISHES DIED IN LESS THAN A SPAN OF A MONTH. ONE DIED 2 WEEKS AFTER THE OTHER AND I'M INCREDIBLY HEARTBROKEN STILL.

They carry improper information and place the other fishes in small tanks, goldfishes need 10 gallons PER fish so I wouldve needed 20 gallons but they gave me 1.5 gallons for $48 or even MORE, and it was way too small, didn't come with a heater and not worth it.

It's overcrowded and reminds me of a slum, squishing everywhere and not too good for corona

overall this may be biased because my fish died when i purchased from this store...
