About
6-star average across more than 650 reviews that speaks to how much locals trust owners Dave and Stephanie. The store covers dogs, cats, reptiles, and small animals, but for aquarium keepers the draw is a freshwater fish selection that regularly turns up species people say they couldn't find anywhere else. One recent visitor came in hunting a specific fish and finally tracked it down here; others simply praise how consistently healthy the livestock looks.
Walk in and a little wall of aquariums opens toward a reptile room in the back, and it's easy to lose an hour wandering between them. What sets the aquarium side apart is care. Reviewers point out that the bettas are kept in real, properly maintained tanks rather than the little plastic cups you see at the chains, a small detail that tells you how the whole shop is run.
You'll find healthy freshwater fish and bettas for sale in Tonawanda, NY, alongside invertebrates like isopods and clean-up crews that signal a store built for serious hobbyists. Competitively priced tanks, lighting, and aquarium supplies round out the selection, and shoppers regularly note prices that beat the big-box stores. The staff is the other reason people keep coming back.
Mari, Elijah, and the rest of the team take time to investigate questions and suggest the right product, even a cheaper one, instead of upselling. The shop is currently remodeling, and regulars say the animal habitats keep improving with each visit. Whether you're picking up frozen feeders, crested gecko diet, or planning a full freshwater setup, Buffalo Pet Supply rewards an in-person trip.

Customer reviews
“Love this place. I go to get frozen rats for my snake, but they have a wide variety of pet supplies, mostly for reptiles and fish (but some for rodents too). They're currently remodeling so things are somewhat in flux, but they're making good progress. I like to go look at their fish before making my purchase - it's so nice to see that they keep their beta fish in actual tanks rather than the clear little Tupperware that other places do. Seems like every time I go in, their animals' habitats have improved a bit. Really great to find a local place that really cares about their critters.”

— Eugene W5.0Edited a month ago“This is one of the best kept pet stores I’ve ever been to. I stopped in to grab isopods while I was in the area & stepped into a mini aquarium that led into a reptile room in the back. I think we easily spent an hour and a half there today just checking out the fish & the reptiles, maybe more. They have so many different things for your tanks and terrariums so check them out! The staff was really nice & checked in often to see if we had questions or needed anything.”

— Brandon Bove5.0a month ago“They had the dog food we use and offered to help take it to my car, but the price was $10 more than at Per Supplies Plus. The store smelled like a zoo (I'm assuming because they have a lot of reptiles and related supplies.”
