About
Tucked into an unassuming warehouse off Route 360 in Taunton, Massachusetts — the entrance is to the left of the building, with no flashy signs to flag you down — Ken's Fish & Pet Supplies is the kind of place you can drive right past before doubling back. There's no storefront polish here, just aisle after aisle of aquarium supplies at prices that consistently undercut the big-box chains. It's a supply-only operation: no livestock and no live plants, just an enormous, deep inventory of fish food, equipment, replacement parts, and dry goods that keeps hobbyists coming back.
Ken's reputation rests largely on fish food. " The flake foods earn especially high marks, and the specialty feeds — larvae-stage powders, large koi pellets, and freeze-dried options — are genuinely hard to find elsewhere. If you keep bettas, discus, koi, or a community tank, the food and aquarium supplies for sale in Taunton, MA are worth the trip.
What sets the warehouse apart is the sheer depth of stock. Walk-in customers regularly turn up replacement parts nobody else carries — Fluval filter covers and betta filter cartridges, Seapora tanks (one shopper carried home a 90-gallon at a price that beat every competitor they checked), aquarium lights, pumps, and beneficial bacteria. There's a solid reptile and bird section too, with Zilla hides and terrariums rounding out the shelves.
The atmosphere is part of the charm. Jim, Ken's right-hand man, gives newcomers the layout of the place, and Ken himself comes out to talk shop — personable, down to earth, and encyclopedic about his inventory. The vibe is refreshingly no-frills.
If you're anywhere near southeastern Massachusetts and need freshwater, saltwater, or pond gear, this Taunton aquarium supply store is worth the detour.

Customer reviews
“Great place for supplies”
— Ken T5.03 weeks ago“Im stuck on comm ave near brighton / newton and getting to the store with no car is near impossible. Ive ordered multiple times through kens ebay shop. Always ships incredibly fast and arrives safely .”
— Tariq Zobair5.04 weeks ago“Excellent shipping and product selection.”
— Kevin Duffy5.0a month ago“Buyer beware!! Read the low reviews. There is a theme. First and last time ordering from Ken’s. They sent my order via usps and ups but only sent me one order confirmation and one tracking number. I only received part of my order. I didn’t receive the shipping confirmation until after contacting support but by then the package was lost. I contacted support, which was completely unfriendly, no attempts to make it right, no salutations, or thank yous. No name attached to the email. I followed up several times with no reply. USPS told me to contact the seller which I attempted to do.”
— Kylee T.1.02 months ago“Ordered beneficial bacteria on online.They sent me a bottle with no expiration date on it.And it looks like there was one , but it was rubbed off. I have sent emails and left phone messages requesting a return authorization. And to this date, I haven't received one.”
— Ruth S.1.02 months ago“This place has everything you need for your aquarium needs. They sell name brand foods and bulk house brands at a fraction of the store prices. I Will definitely be buying all my foods from here from now on.”
— Paul S5.03 months ago“Used to be a good place to order food in bulk but the flakes in the last order were dust. After multiple emails I still have yet to receive a response and will be ordering elsewhere”
— Thomas2.03 months ago“This is my 4th time ordering my betta filter cartridges online and i love how fast shipping is. The prices are amazing compare to other pet stores. Thank you :)”
— Catherine Garrido5.03 months ago“The pump went out on our seventeen year old cat’s drinking fountain. He has kidney disease and it’s really important that he stays hydrated. I ordered the new pump from Ken’s on Wednesday and it arrived by Friday evening. We are so thankful!”
— Seri Manning5.04 months ago“Purchased an item online, delivered via USPS 2 states away in under 3 days. Great pricing, fast shipment. Happy to support a small business over one of the big chains.”
