LAX Aquarium

Coolest fish store I have ever been in! My kids are into fish, so they wanted to stop here during our brief LA vacation. Staff is super friendly and very helpful, they took extra time answering a million questions from my kids. Very nice setup, good time just walking around the store and looking at all the incredible setups

Wish I could leave 5 stars because the variety And cleanliness of this place is great! However staff is not knowledgeable they sold me a chocolate chip star fish along with some smaller fish. Few days later most of the fish started dying. I was working and couldn’t get back to swap the dead fish they said I only had 2 days to change the fish. I had them frozen so I can take them so they can see they died within the week. Anyway long story short they didn’t offer any discounts on water tests either. Another thing to add I find out the starfish is actually carnivorous and eats the small fish! I personally picked up the starfish after one fish was left and it had it in its mouth already dead. they never mentioned the starfish feeds on smaller fish. so I spent about $150 on those fish for them to all die. I love the starfish though I plan on keeping it but now that I know it’s carnivorous I won’t be buying expensive fish for it to eat. Anyway I will probably go to another saltwater fish store next time where the staff is more knowledgeable.

Love this place, great attention to their guests, they answer every question with a good attitude, nice environment, they have everything for the care of my aquarium. l like to visit it every time I have the opportunity.❤️

I reached out multiple times over several days requesting a quote to move my aquarium, but unfortunately, I never received a response from Chris, the owner. I'm extremely disappointed by the lack of communication. Even if he isn't taking on new jobs at the moment, a simple courtesy call or message to let me know would have been greatly appreciated. I even called during the hours his employees suggested, yet still received no response. Good customer service is about keeping potential clients informed, and this experience was frustrating. To the response below: It’s disappointing to see that there was time to respond to this, but not a few minutes to assist a potential customer. It sends a clear message about how new customers are valued.

This is honestly the best place in town for aquarist. They have shipment if new coral selections weekly, you can find lots of rare species at this facility.. Kris is the owner of this place and he is great at having his team assist you with questions and pricing. I bought my 175g red sea reefer with him and I love it so much.
