An excellent local fish store. They have a wide variety of fish and plants for home aquariums. They have a lot of knowledge to share, if you ask the right questions. Ask for their brochure on Ten Steps to a Beautiful and Healthy New Aquarium. I’d give the 5th star if they were open more hours and if they sold goldfish.

Albany aquarium has an amazing selection of healthy fresh water fish. They quarantine all fish downstairs before selling which is wonderful! The staff is very knowledgeable and are mostly as patient as can be expected when being asked really simple questions all day.

Fantastic selection of freshwater plants and fish. Very knowledgeable staff and everything is very well priced. They have everything you need to start an aqua-scaping tank.

Absolutely love this place! Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. All their tanks are very well taken care of and all of their fish are healthy. Some might consider this place a tad expensive but honestly, you get what you pay for! This place is totally worth it if you are new to owning aquariums or not. We have purchased many aquatic plants and fish from this location. And we are always happy with what we take home.

Lovely shop with knowledgeable folks. They helped us get some adorable golden backed yellow neocaridina and golden tetra for our nano tank. Then, they helped us get everything we needed to set up the aquarium half of our paludarium. Highly recommended!

These guys taught me how to keep fish alive. They can teach you too. Reasonable prices, very dedicated staff, and soooooooo many awesome fish and aquatic plants. This is the spot. Our fish tank has now been thriving for over two years. When I was dealing with the people at PetSmart fish mortality was a huge problem. Now or fish are forever having babies

I don't come here anymore. Over 25 years ago, I started shopping here and was fascinated with the high quality of fish, however, the rare plants were the trophies. Customer Service was very good as long as the staff weren't busy with too many customers. Unfortunately, over the past three years, a new manager and staff has significantly deteriorated customer service and lack courtesy toward me whether over the phone or in person when no other customers present. Although livestock have been ridiculously priced, some expensive high quality discus occasionally appear and are worth my time. Rare plants are no longer sold here and they're not interested in ordering them anymore, yet you might be better off shopping elsewhere for a better deal and respect.

There is a really good selection of plants, and the fish they have are super interesting! The displays set up in the store are really unique and well done too. Everything in the store is kept super humanely, and there are really nice signs reminding you what all the fish need and pricing that encourages you to buy in the proper numbers. The staff are super personable and informative!
