About
Dubey's Pet World in Graham, North Carolina is primarily an exotic pet shop rather than a dedicated aquarium store, but it does maintain a fish section alongside its extensive collection of birds, reptiles, and small mammals. The store stocks freshwater fish including guppies and other species, making it a convenient stop for local fishkeepers looking to pick up livestock without driving to a bigger city. The shop's real draw is its menagerie atmosphere — walk in and you'll find macaws, green cheek conures, sun conures, and caiques sharing space with bearded dragons, snakes, tarantulas, ferrets, chinchillas, and rabbits.
One customer described picking up a baby green cheek conure that ran up to the glass flapping its wings, a bird they named Fuji because of his love of apples. Cats roam freely through the aisles, adding to the pet-shop-as-zoo feel that makes it a popular family destination in the Graham area. The fish department, while not the store's centerpiece, serves the local community.
Reviewers mention purchasing guppies and other affordable freshwater species, and the store carries fish supplies alongside its broader pet inventory. One customer noted they rely on Dubey's for all their fish, parrot, and lizard needs in one stop. It's worth noting that the store generates strong opinions.
Many customers praise the friendly, knowledgeable staff who remember regulars and answer questions patiently over the phone. However, pricing — particularly on birds — has been a consistent point of contention, with some customers finding the store's prices significantly above market rates and encountering friction when attempting to negotiate. The fish section carries standard freshwater species at prices some reviewers found steep.
For Graham residents seeking freshwater fish and supplies without making a longer trip, Dubey's offers convenience and variety. The store functions best as a one-stop pet shop where you can browse an eclectic animal collection and grab fish supplies while you're at it.

— Taiye jimoh5.0a month ago“Realmente es lugar de multi variedad de mascotas, lo cual es maravilloso y realmente como les comenté a la familia y a la gente que labora ahí. Pero quiero enfocarme a la compra que hice dos peces económicos de 12 dólares cada uno (2) mi pecera es pequeña pero jamás he tenido problemas con el otro de la misma especie guppy es decir con la compra de los 2 iban a ser 3. Me justificó el señor que garantía de 3 días y ese era el día 5 ya que el noche del día 4 ya están m***s pero bueno. Lamento mucho la justificación y la forma defensiva que hizo el hijo del dueño al explicarme. Bueno mi pez sigue vivo y los otros 2 menos de una semana ya no viven.”
