Tucked into North Palm Beach, the Aquarium Shop is the kind of local fish store that earns fierce loyalty from its customers — and it's easy to see why. This saltwater-focused shop may not be the most spacious retail space in Palm Beach County, but what it lacks in square footage it more than makes up for in livestock quality, coral selection, and genuine expertise from owner Andy and his team, including Tyler and Vince. The store specializes in saltwater fish and corals, with reviewers consistently praising the variety and health of the livestock.
From clownfish that delight visiting kids to a Peacock Mantis Shrimp that became one customer's son's favorite pet, the selection leans toward interesting and well-cared-for specimens. The coral offerings are a particular draw — zoa frags, reef-ready pieces, and live rock fill the tanks, supporting hobbyists running everything from 13-gallon nano reefs to larger setups. Regular livestock shipments keep the inventory fresh and varied.
What truly sets this shop apart is how the staff treats newcomers to the saltwater hobby. Multiple first-time reefers describe feeling genuinely welcomed rather than overwhelmed. One beginner brought in a zoa frag so the shop's peppermint shrimp could clear hydroids — and walked out with a borrowed PAR meter, no charge.
That kind of generosity builds the sort of trust that turns casual shoppers into regulars. The team also handles special orders for aquariums, equipment, and accessories, and local tank maintenance professionals regularly source livestock here for their own clients. Pricing is another recurring theme in reviews — consistently described as reasonable and competitive compared to other Palm Beach County shops.
The old-school aquarium store atmosphere, where conversation flows freely and staff are happy to share advice on tank health and stocking, gives the place a community feel that big-box retailers simply can't replicate. If you're building or maintaining a saltwater tank anywhere in the area, this is the local fish store people keep coming back to.
