This fish store is the best! Fish are healthy and well maintained by the owners. I was previously buying my fish from a local big box store but the quality of the fish was very poor. Fish either died quickly or infected my tanks. I'm so impressed with the availability of stock and the knowledge the owners have about fish care, compatibility and tank maintenance. This is my new place to buy my fish and supplies. John & Jenny were so patient with me and answered every question that I had. I will definitely be buying more fish from Shillington and highly recommend this business.

The owner was great. He's a little eccentric, but he knows his stuff. They have a great variety of fish.

The owners are very good people and knowable. They care about the costomer and fish. They will tell you if a fish is compatible with others you have and if they know it is not safe will not sell you the fish, to protect your investment and the fish. I wish more aquarium stores were like them. I ABSOLUTELY RECOMEND SHILLINGTON!

Thanks John glad I got the 4 Congo tetras adapting well to the 90 cube tank love them one if my favorite fishes . Great place to get fish and supplies thanks for the tip on the baby brine shrimp for the baby angels and new frozen food you recommended.(Highly recommend) this place also your wife is great too . Great advice and hospitality. Every Time I came in I keep saying get the Congo tetras and glad you kept them together they love to school and keep mostly low so I believe you that it’s a rare chance they will jump out of open cube tank . Thanks again been coming to you since the 80 tees .Finally did a review .

Saltwater selection is slim only a handful of fish, freshwater fish had better stock. All around mediocre experience. Much better places to get your aquarium needs around.

DO NOT TRUST THIS STORE! The owner is just trying to make a quick buck. Should've stuck to the rules, when I asked if he could please feed some fish before buying them, his response was "no it will stress them out." How is feeding fish stressing them out? First red flag to stay away. I bought them anyway against my better judgement.Sure enough, the fish never ate no matter what I tried. He knew that, he was just trying to make a sale on me. He'll tell you anything at the store to get you to buy something. Prototypical scam business. But then his true colors show. Even called him back after the 1 week mark and at the 3 week mark. Blamed everything on me and also refused to let me return them and hung up on me. Because to him the well-being of the livestock is less important than his money. STAY AWAY!

Very rude. Couldnt even get the help or information. The lady would not even let me finish my sentences. When manager came out he also was rude. I couldnt even get a clear explanation of what he was saying.

Stopped by this place and am beyond impressed. Tanks are clean, fish and bright and healthy. Very well put together shop. I have spent my whole life in this hobby and still learned a lot from John the owner. This shop has been around since 1969. I'm so glad I got to see it. Even was able to purchase some vintage aquarium decor prices from the 80's and 90's. This is a destination store. Don't miss it.

John is very knowledgeable and will take his time explaining what you need to get your aquarium started. He also understands what fish are compatible with each other, creating the most harmonious aquarium experience.

John and Jennie do an excellent job with fish care and customer service. We highly recommend Shillington Aquariums for freshwater and saltwater needs.
