About
Aqua World Pet Super Center is a sprawling aquarium store in Pittsburgh, PA, and home to one of the largest selections of freshwater and saltwater fish in the city. Shoppers looking for saltwater fish or live coral for sale near me find a deep, ever-changing reef section, and reviewers repeatedly point to competitive prices on live coral and saltwater livestock. On the freshwater side, the inventory runs from everyday community fish to rare and hard-to-find species, plus plenty of goldfish and koi — a goldfish and koi pond out front gives you a preview before you even step through the door.
Hunting for live aquarium plants near me? Aqua World keeps a healthy, well-priced selection of aquarium plants alongside its livestock, and customers describe the fish and plants as consistently healthy. Beyond fish, this is a true exotic-animal destination: reptiles and amphibians are available in Pittsburgh too, from frogs to far more unusual creatures, sharing the floor with one of the most surprising inventories in the region.
The shop also stocks a broad range of aquarium supplies, premium equipment, and dry goods, making it a genuine one-stop fish store for Pittsburgh aquarists. Staff are widely praised as knowledgeable about species requirements, care, and compatibility, and the owner is known to special-order fish that aren't currently on the shelves — so if you're after something specific, it's worth asking. If you want a fish store in Pittsburgh, PA with real range — saltwater fish, corals, freshwater fish, goldfish, koi, rare species, and live plants all available under one roof — Aqua World delivers a selection big-box retailers simply can't match.

Customer reviews
“This place isn't just fish it also has a lot of exotic reptiles (snakes, bearded dragons, geckos, lizards, turtles) and birds birds (finches, budgies chickens). They have every species of coral and fish you'd need for both salt and freshwater as well as a good amount of cichlids and other brackish species. Such a wonderful place to visit even if you're not looking to buy.”
