Simply put, there is no other human on earth with more knowledge than Craig - the owner and proprietor. I’ve known him and purchased the best fish from him for decades. I recently committed to a large tank installation at my school - a four flight walk up building! His staff were amazing. Polite, early, enthusiastic, extremely clean, they carried up and installed a 125 gallon with custom stand and case joyfully and got the job done beautifully and even more quickly than budgeted for. The service has been amazing and we have a tank that is bringing joy to our children and staff - and attracting attention and visitors from across the city and state. Craig continues to provide expertise, support, water testing, great deals on bulk food and supplies ad infinitum! With the largest and BEST selection of live fish in NYS and a commitment to customer satisfaction and long term relationships, if you are a rookie, novice, or professional - and you’re contemplating a new tank, upgrade, custom tank, new fish or a complete makeover there is only one place you should go - BETAIL’S - the official aquarium and fish suppliers of Green Bronx Machine! We love you Craig and crew! Thx for all you do!

Absolutely the Best Aquarium Service Experience! From start to finish, this has been the best aquarium service I have ever experienced. The knowledge and expertise of both the owner and the staff are outstanding. They take the time to explain even the smallest details with complete honesty and clarity, making sure every need is addressed. Craig, the owner, is truly one of the most reliable, helpful, and honest people I've ever met. He personally helped me set up my saltwater tank, including a fully automated water filtration system, cooling system, and more. He was hands-on throughout the entire process, ensuring everything came together exactly as it should. Craig guided me through every step, making sure I was comfortable and confident with my setup. Even after the installation, he continues to be available 24/7 for any kind of aquarium emergency—which is priceless. If you're even considering starting or upgrading an aquarium, do yourself a favor and visit his shop. You won't be disappointed! Thank you so much, Craig, and a huge thanks to your amazing team. You’re the best!

I have known Craig at Beital’s for most of my adult life. I started going to his shop in Pearl River New York in the early 90s. Also When I was a child 10 years old, his father sold me my first fish tank. (Different shop) Craig has always been there to answer questions to give advice whether it’s about fish or tank supplies or life in general. My daughter has grown up going to his shop and is now involved in the hobby THANKS TO CRAIG He’s always made us feel warm and welcome. He is honest and a straight shooter. From the smallest fish to the largest of fish, both salt and freshwater, he has it there at his store truly there isn’t anything like it anywhere else. He is a warehouse of supplies as well as a custom installation, shop and on-site maintenance for fish tanks and ponds. Throughout the years I’ve gone through so many different types of fish both salt and fresh. and I’ve always gone to Beital’s. I currently have two 210 gallon aquariums and I’m about to start a new 150 gallon discus tank. He stands by everything he sells. Thank you, Craig for being such an integral part of my life for so many years. If you’re in the aquarium hobby you would be remiss not to visit his shop.

Beital's Aquariums is a fantastic place for anyone looking for high-quality koi. I recently got 3 new koi from them for my outdoor pond, and I couldn’t be happier with the selection and the condition of the fish. They have an impressive variety in all sizes, and the staff truly goes above and beyond to make sure customers are satisfied. Whether you're new to koi or a seasoned enthusiast, you’ll appreciate their knowledge, service, and attention to detail. I highly recommended!

My son and I purchased a very specific large saltwater set up from Craig and his team. They came to our house, installed and set up the tank. It was great spent about an hour explaining how he set it up and why. Told me things to look for over the next couple days and what our next steps are to building a successful coral tank. The next day, Craig had called to check in on the tank, gave him an update, In fact he knew how anxious my son was to get fish in the tank ( my son negotiated a couple fish from Craig) he kept to his word and brought the fish over, got them acclimated and put in the tank before my son got home from school, imagine his surprise. I feel that Craig’s word was kept, went above and beyond for us on our new hobby. It was a great experience and will always recommend Craig to anyone looking to get there aquariums done correctly. Photo attached ( this was about 4 hours after the install, the water was still clearing up in which it entirely has) it looks absolutly stunning!
