Let customers speak for us
The guppies were healthy and colorful. Nguyen, the owner, took his time to explain all of my questions. Great service!!!
Very happy with the purchase of my Premium Red Koi Galaxy Male Betta. The fish is healthy and a beautiful addition to my tank. It coexists well with 6 ember tetras in my 10G tank.
The most amazing betta, arrived healthy, and instantly went looking for food when I put it in my tank. I only can have one betta, but if I wanted another, I would buy it from Splashy Fish!
These discus are so so wonderful! :) They come to the front of the tank, they're very happy and healthy. We bought them a little over a week ago and they are so great. Highly recommend! We also bought some betta fish for our sorority here and they are also great!
They are happy, very active a week later in two 10 gal dirted tanks @ 74 deg F. and doing well. They came wrapped in a wet paper towel in separate little plastic bags...I never saw shipping done this way before but it works well, and saves weight.
I ordered the 2 premium Bettas from Splashy fish recently and they are thriving. The owner was very cooperative with shipping my fishes at an opportune time after Hurricane Milton hit our area. Great experience...highly recommend Splashy Fish!

So i had the worker hunt me down a female hillstream which she did with no problem at all, I really appreciated it. The little one seems healthy, she wonders the quarentine tank for food which is a great sign, flashes a little but i know how picky some hillstreams are with water quality and bare bottoms. Overall the hillstream is healthy and the worker was super accommodating.
You do get what you pay for and my 2 Betta purchases from Splashy Fish can attest to that. Great experience and really awesome fish. Can't thank you enough.
The Splashy team was very friendly and knowledgeable. We have always been satisfied with the quality and health of fish purchased from Splashy.
I have been to Splashy Fish twice now. Their animals are well cared for and they have a nice selection of fresh water fish and some crayfish. I am not a Betta person but they seem to have a dazzling and beautiful selection of them. In addition I was told that they breed some of their stock which is great for hobby and the environment from which their fish originate. I met the owner today and got some good advice on setting up my tank after a move. I have purchased fish, plants, and decor from them. They are a friendly and helpful locally owned business. It is clear that they are much more committed to keeping their animals healthy than the big box pet stores. They will be my regular aquarium store from now on.
The White Cloud Minnows I purchased are eating well and growing fast. I enjoy watching them forage.
Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. They walked me through a ton of options for my tank. Amazing experience definitely headed back there.
