About
Blue Seas Aquariums in Sunrise, Florida has earned a devoted following among saltwater hobbyists across Broward County and beyond — some driving 25+ minutes past closer shops just for the coral selection alone. And it's easy to see why. The store consistently stocks an impressive variety of coral frags, from sought-after Bali green slimer Acropora to beautifully colored specimens that customers have shipped as far as Sweden.
Staff members Justin, Eric, and Floyd have built reputations as go-to reef experts who will spend real time walking through tank problems, explaining purchases, and even steering customers away from things they don't need. The saltwater fish selection draws equal praise — healthy marine livestock with reviewers noting they've never experienced ich or red velvet from Blue Seas purchases, a common frustration at other local shops. Butterfly fish, clownfish, and a rotating variety of reef-safe species fill well-maintained display tanks.
The store also carries a solid inventory of aquarium supplies, replacement parts, and equipment that can be difficult to source elsewhere. What sets Blue Seas apart is the combination of product quality and genuine expertise. The team speaks both English and Spanish and has a knack for making newcomers to the reef hobby feel welcome without being patronizing.
Multiple reviewers mention asking endless questions and never feeling rushed. The store's online presence is equally impressive — they ship corals with careful packing and will even send updated photos before shipment if a coral's coloration has changed under reef lighting, ensuring customers know exactly what they're getting. The store itself is clean and continually upgraded with new displays.
Coral pricing runs competitive, especially during periodic sales that regulars keep an eye on. For anyone maintaining a reef tank in South Florida, Blue Seas Aquariums delivers the trifecta of healthy livestock, fair pricing, and staff who genuinely care about your success in the hobby.

— Cristina Nino5.07 months ago“Customer service was severely lacking, I greeted both employees and received not the slightest acknowledgement from either of the two employees on shift. This is a small store, with only 1 other customer present at the time both employees could not be bothered to even ask if I needed help in a span of 10 minutes. The coral selection was good, pricing was decent. Store was clean, but it was a lackluster experience given the drive to visit.”
