Very nice selection of fish the owners were more than happy to assist us and help answer any questions we had they also made a point to tell us they can look for the kinds of fish we were looking for and let us know when they get them in!

This is the cleanest fish store I have ever been to. The tanks are so clear and you don’t see multiple dead fish just floating around in the tanks like at other places. I got a group of cichlids from him and they all did and are still doing amazing! The fish selection is also amazing! I love this place and will not purchase from anyone else. Will definitely recommend him to others!

The best aquatic store in the Iowa City area hands down.I’ve been keeping aquariums for close to ten years now and am blown away by the quality of their stock. Although neon tetras are easy to find, good genetics are not. I have had 0 problems with NTD from The Fish Barn. I purchased Beckford’s Pencilfish and a variety of corydoras from them a little over a year ago and they have done brilliantly in my tank. Although I do not keep shrimp, my colleague has been extremely pleased with his RCS purchased here.The owners are wonderful, and if you are lucky, you’ll be greeted by some extremely cute French bulldogs.I cannot recommend this store enough. This is an example of what all LFS should strive to be. Easy 5 stars.

Stunning fish. Clearly well taken care of. There's no proper fish store where we live so we drove out here looking for some betta tank supplies like wood and plants.

Clean beautiful tanks. Awesome customer service, friendly, and helpful. Knowledgeable support with passion and excitement for aquatics. Feels a little out in the middle is nowhere, but it's awesome. Highly recommend.

Cody has a nice selection of fish and aquatic plants to purchase. The prices are reasonable, as well. The Fish Barn will be one of two places I will go to for my aquatic needs.

Easily the best fish store in the Iowa City area. Unfortunately, it's a bit out of the way but it's also going to be the only fish store my wife and I go to from now on. Huge variety of both docile and more "aggressive" fish, no poor betas in pint-sized containers (they were in actual tanks!), and really clean tanks. There were also some fish and other fish-esque creatures I've never seen before and didn't even know existed, especially in freshwater. There's also a nice variety of freshwater plants, food, treatments, etc.Don't be turned off that this isn't downtown and that it's down a driveway.

The most unique selection of tropical fish in the area, especially cichlids. Also the best overall health I've seen at a fish shop in a long time.

The aquariums are spotless! The variety is endless. And the knowledge….. well that’s PRICELESS!

She will take down any bad reviews. This 4.9 rating is bogus. Referring to the large dog that wouldn't let person out of car and kids walking around the property with a gun.

This is my favorite place to buy fish and fish supplies. The fish here are always healthy, and they have a good variety.
