About
Something Fishy in Warwick, Rhode Island is part aquarium store, part design studio, and part gathering place, and the moment you step into the immaculate showroom you understand why. Couches, high-tops, and a bar area sit ringed by stunning saltwater and freshwater displays, a space families have used for celebrations and businesses have booked for meetings while reef fish and swaying corals glide behind the glass. Led by Kurt alongside a crew that includes Billy, Hunter, Zach, and Josh, the team designs, installs, and maintains custom aquariums for homes and offices across Rhode Island.
They handle everything from the first consultation through weekly service, building large-scale saltwater reef systems as readily as freshwater setups. Longtime client Doug has watched his reef aquarium get "better and better" over seven months as new fish and corals were introduced, and when he wanted a different look the techs rebuilt the entire lighting configuration until it was exactly right. The livestock is a real draw.
Corals, reef fish, and other invertebrates are available in Warwick, RI, hand-selected for each build, and the crew handled a full axolotl-tank redesign for one family whose axolotl, Milo, now has a home everyone loves. If you have been searching for healthy corals or reef fish for sale near me, this is the kind of aquarium store where the staff actually know each animal in their care. Maintenance is where the meticulousness shows.
The service techs keep up weekly visits and leave detailed log-book entries documenting every step. Reviewers describe support available at 4:45 on a Friday or 5:30 in the morning, plumbing kept neat, and systems running flawlessly. Between the showroom displays, the white-glove installs, and a team that clearly loves the work, Something Fishy has become a centerpiece for aquarium keepers all over the Warwick area.

Customer reviews
“Can't say enough about Josh and his team! The care taken of our waiting space fish tank is second to none. Clients and staff alike admire the end results and are loving the relaxing impact it has on the space. Thank you Something Fishy!”
— Brian Beaudry5.0a month ago“Definitely overcharge for some of the fish you offer, and on top of that they just don’t treat people well. Avoid this business!”
— Dan1.02 months ago“Amazing job helping me revamp our axolotl tank. Hunter was extremely helpful with all of my questions and did an amazing redesign. The whole family (including Milo our axolotl), love the tank! Thanks guys!!”

— Joe Turner5.0Edited 2 months ago“I've been enjoying my reef aquarium from Something Fishy for more than seven months. Each month has gotten better and better as new fish and corals have been introduced. At every stage, from planning/designing the aquarium to selecting the best combination of fish and corals the service team and techs were attentive to my questions and concerns. Even six months along, they worked with me to revamp the lighting system for the aquarium and put in a completely new configuration, all to make sure I was completely satisfied. The quality of the tank, and equipment is top notch; the health of the fish and corals is excellent, the knowledge and expertise of the service techs, and the quality of service has made my enjoyment of my aquarium exactly what I wanted. Service and customer satisfaction are real hallmarks of Something Fishy. Whether I've had a concern at 4:45 on Friday afternoon, or 5:30 in the morning, support is there. I'd been looking for an aquarium design and service firm for a very long time, and I have been most satisfied by Something Fishy.”

We love having a large fish tank because it adds movement, color, and a really calming vibe you just can’t get any other way. Kurt and the team at Something Fishy made the whole process easy, from planning to installation, and the system has been running smoothly ever since. Their crew clearly knows what they’re doing, and we’re excited to keep working with their service team as we add more fish and coral. Highly recommend.”
