Owner Tony and his small crew run a shop that prioritizes fish health and genuine expertise over flashy presentation. The space has a warehouse feel, reviewers admit, but that becomes irrelevant once you see the selection: robust freshwater livestock including dwarf rainbows, koi, and a rotating cast of species that outpaces what the big-box pet stores across town can offer. Saltwater enthusiasts will also find stock worth browsing, though the freshwater side is clearly the heart of the operation. The live plant selection is a standout draw. Multiple customers report driving nearly an hour each way specifically for TK's plants, which consistently root well and arrive in far better condition than what Petco or Petsmart carries. If you're building a planted tank or getting into aquascaping, this is where Tulsa-area hobbyists are shopping for healthy specimens and substrates. What earns TK Aquatics its loyal following is the care behind the scenes. Fish that show signs of illness get quarantined rather than sold — a practice customers specifically call out as uncommon in the area. Tony has been known to source hard-to-find species on request, and the staff will stay past closing time to make sure a customer can pick up an ordered aquarium. One reviewer recounted mentioning interest in dwarf rainbows, only to find a batch of babies in stock on their next visit. Pricing is competitive, often beating nearby specialty shops, and the tank selection — from small setups to custom orders — rounds out a solid inventory of dry goods and equipment. The consultation is casual but informed; Tony once walked a customer through multiple solutions for a snail problem without pushing a sale. People drive from as far as Wichita, and they keep coming back. For Tulsa fishkeepers, TK Aquatics has become the default local shop — and it's earned that status honestly. ## Specializations - **Water Types**: Freshwater, Saltwater - **Livestock & Products**: Live Plants, Koi, Aquarium Equipment, Planted Tanks - **Services**: Quarantine, Consultation - **Known For**: Premium Equipment, Knowledgeable Staff, Great Selection, Healthy Fish, Good Prices ## Highlights - Fish are quarantined when sick rather than sold — a rare practice in the Tulsa area - Exceptional live plant selection that outperforms big-box competitors - Owner Tony sources hard-to-find species by request - Competitive pricing on both livestock and aquariums - Knowledgeable staff with genuine passion for fishkeeping ## Customer Reviews **"Camryn Rought"** - 5/5 - 3 weeks ago > Awesome **"david hawn"** - 5/5 - a month ago > A fantastic store with very friendly and knowledgeable staff. They have a great variety of fish and plants with good prices as well! **"anecia mendez-weber"** - 5/5 - a month ago > Love this store!!! They always have a great selection and they are easy to talk to and ask questions if you have any 😁 **"Jasper Zatch"** - 5/5 - a month ago > Absolutely love this location and will come here for any and all of the fish I want. The sale fish are kept in pretty great tanks that make them comfortable but still let customers view them. Theyre not overstocked for the right species and usually very clean and healthy. They have the best prices and options on tanks as well. Their plants are gorgeous and never have a problem taking root in my tanks when I get them home despite almost an hour drive. I do wish they had just a little more hardscape like rocks and wood for decorating tanks, but they've got some options and sand/substrates. The employees are always the best part. heyre super kind and helpful whether it's the owner himself one of their usual two employees(i think there's a third young gentleman too, I've only met once though). You can really feel that the people working here are also absolutely in love with fish keeping. The inside could use a little organization or "prettying up" since it does feel a little like a warehouse instead of a shop, but honestly this becomes very easy to forget or ignore when surrounded by the gorgeous tanks and fish that are so happy. Really grateful to have the store nearby and I recommend anyone interested in fish keeping to give it a visit. I actually did decide on a five stars instead of four because I know they do truly pay attention to the fish health and will not sell a fish they believe is sick, but instead quarantine and wait til they're better. Which is not something I trust from the other shops in the area. I really appreciate them for their care. **"P M"** - 5/5 - a month ago > Great place, far better stock than big name stores. Very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable with questions. **"DeAnna Fletcher"** - 5/5 - 2 months ago > After visiting about 3 or 4 other aquarium shops in the Tulsa area while looking for more freshwater options, this was my last stop and I’m SO glad I did! A much bigger selection of freshwater creatures than the others nearby, prices were even a little better than competitors nearby, and the young girl that helped us was very sweet and we could tell she’s familiar with the hobby and helped with any questions we had. We will definitely be back to visit this store, we may have found our new favorite in a several hour radius! ❤️ **"Coco G"** - 5/5 - 3 months ago > Friendly service and variety fishes they have with reasonable price. I highly recommended this place to anyone. **"Michelle Adams"** - 5/5 - 3 months ago > Super friendly and helpful **"scott maxwell"** - 5/5 - 3 months ago > Great place and friendly staff! **"Charles Pruett"** - 5/5 - 3 months ago > Great people really friendly told me about everything just amazing Service and great prices ## Nearby Stores - [Axolotls Tulsa](https://www.fishstores.org/oklahoma/tulsa/axolotls-tulsa) - Tulsa, OK - 4.9/5 - [ReefLife](https://www.fishstores.org/oklahoma/tulsa/reeflife) - Tulsa, OK - 4.9/5 - [Ultimate Reefs & Aquariums](https://www.fishstores.org/oklahoma/tulsa/ultimate-reefs-and-aquariums) - Tulsa, OK - 4.6/5 - [Adam's Pet Shop](https://www.fishstores.org/oklahoma/tulsa/adams-pet-shop) - Tulsa, OK - 4.5/5 - [Fins For Grins](https://www.fishstores.org/oklahoma/broken-arrow/fins-for-grins) - Broken Arrow, OK - 4.9/5 - [A1 Pet Emporium](https://www.fishstores.org/oklahoma/oklahoma-city/a1-pet-emporium) - Oklahoma City, OK - 4.8/5 --- *Source: [FishStores.org](https://www.fishstores.org/oklahoma/tulsa/tk-aquatics)* *Last updated: February 7, 2026*
