Owner is friendly and knowledgeable with an amazing collection of coral starting at only $10. Definitely worth stopping in. Some of the largest, healthiest pieces I've ever had the pleasure of viewing.

If you're looking for a good place to shop for your saltwater aquarium needs this is a great store! The owner Dennis is very knowledgeable and friendly.

Awesome experience, super helpful owner spent an exceptional amount of time digging a single pistol shrimp out of live rock so I could buy it. Best frag selection I have seen in the greater Houston area with reasonable pricing. I'll definitely be back to feed my addiction.

Not the best looking from the outside but the inside OMG. New to the hobby and the staff was truly amazing. You can tell they are passionate about marine life and love their job. I ordered my first tank from them and can't wait to get started. Although this place is an hour drive for me, it's definitely worth it.

I have been here twice and still have yet to step foot inside. Both times were during posted hours of operation. Open sign was on both times with a note on door stating will return in 30 minutes. Waited almost an hour both times and they never opened back up. Not worth the drive again not knowing if someone will be there.

They have some nice stuff definitely a heavy focus on LPS not much Sps at all. It's definitely for reefers not a fish store. Coral I picked up is healthy and thriving in my reef.

Let me start off by saying this stores appearance more than any other does not do it justice by any means. I found this location shopping around or new LFS's in Houston. I even have to admit that when I first pulled into the parking lot of this location I debated going inside. However, they are a Red Sea distributor and therefore I decided to make the leap. Let me tell you something it was well worth it!

Let me emphasize again that this store also in the top three of my favorite Reef Aquaria stores for the west side of H town. Reef Aquaria is an advanced level aquarium Hobby and should be respected as such. That being said if you are in the hobby or interested in the hobby, this is the place to be!

As mentioned previously, fjw is a Red Sea distributor, and for those who do not know, Red Sea Aquatics is one of the top five Reef Aquarium manufacturers in the country.

This alone makes it worth the visit. When I visited for the first time I had children with me and did not have a lot of time to speak with the gentleman. However, I will say that what little I heard him speak about while he was receiving new stock of Frags, appeared to be what I would consider advanced level knowledge.

I would easily compare my visit to a micro version of WWC only local.

I could easily go on and on about the benefits and pros of visiting this store. But we won't do that today I will simply say that I highly recommend this shop for any one interested in Reef Aquaria!

Wow! This place is coral heaven. Was looking around to buy a couple of fish and ended up with $500+ of corals.
