Tropic N Reef Aquarium is an amazing place! The staff are incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely care about the health and well-being of their fish, coral, products and customers. Whether you’re just starting out or an experienced hobbyist. They take the time to answer questions and give honest advice, which really sets them apart. I always leave feeling happy and well looked after. I highly recommend to anyone looking for quality aquatic care and great customer service to shop here.

I am so far very impressed with Tropic N Reef Aquariums! The staff are kind, friendly, and very helpful. They have a wide range of products and are happy to make a special order if you're looking for something they don't routinely carry. They have never pushed me to purchase anything and frequently recommend products or livestock from other businesses to encourage my success in the aquarium hobby. Between their Oakville store and Burlington pickup location, they offer excellent customer service and convenience. Thrilled to have a passionate local business in my backyard committed to helping the community!

I am so happy to have found this shop. The staff were very helpful going above and beyond what I could have ever hoped for. They were able to answer all my questions, (and believe me there were many), and offered their knowledge and guidance in helping put me on the right path to building and running a successful environment for my new betta. Their understanding and patience was greatly appreciated. I look forward to my next visit.

We popped in to this lovely little aquarium shop just because we were in the area and are new to fish keeping. We had a couple guppies who have of course already multiplied by 10+ (there are about 25 fry in there). The guy at the shop was very nice and shared lots of good information to help us keep our guppy babies from danger and some other options for feeding these super tiny fish! Thank you! I can’t wait to come back, and see your new freshwater tanks running! 🤗 And buy some stuff too! 😉😁 I added some photos, a couple of my fish babies ~6wks old. …apparently I need to clean my glass… 🫣

I had a fantastic experience at Tropic N Reef Aquariums Store while setting up my very first fish tank. As a complete beginner, I had a lot of questions and honestly didn’t know where to start — but Meher and their team made the whole process simple and stress-free. They patiently guided me through everything, from choosing the right tank size and equipment to explaining filtration, water cycling, and fish compatibility. I really appreciated how they took the time to educate me instead of just trying to sell products. Their advice gave me the confidence to set up my aquarium properly. Thanks to their guidance, my tank is now running beautifully! I highly recommend Tropic N Reef Aquariums Store to anyone — especially first-timers — looking for knowledgeable, friendly, and trustworthy support.
