Looking for freshwater aquarium plants and accidentally ended up here - it's a great store with a lot of amazing saltwater animals, and I'm looking forward to them expanding into freshwater aquariums over the next few months! The owner is really friendly and helpful.

Waited 30 mins for them to not come back from lunch on time so I left. Didnt get to see or buy anything. Obviously went downhill since Paul left the business

I placed a decent sized coral order online and couldn't be happier! Everything looks amazing and was opening up within moments of receiving it. Plus, packing was excellent! Buy with convince!

Mom-N-Pop actually are Mom-N-Pop at this local fish store. And it's refreshing to do business with people who you know by name.Fish are not run in copper and they are kept in 1.025 salinity with UV sterilized water systems. Nothing is hiding under the guise of sub-therapeutic copper or hyposalinity. Take your fish home, freshwater dip or do a bath and put it in your observation tank. No prolonged acclimation or massive transitions required.AAP may not have what you want in stock, but probably do have what you need. And they're great people to do business with.

This is hands down the best local fish store around. I'm fairly new to reef keeping, but I have visited every LFS in the Gastonia to Charlotte area. Advanced aquatics is a family owned and operated business and it is clear that you are not just a dollar sign when you walk through the door. They have a good selection of fish in stock and the corals are amazing and very reasonably priced.

Just set my tank back up after moving down south 10 years ago. So my 378 gallon beauty has been in storage. Went in to visit this store after spending 4 days researching and updating myself online with prices on all sorts of stuff. I am EXTREMELY satisfied to see that their prices were that of online or better on some items! Bought a beautiful piece of live rock and 2 bottles of seed bacteria to help get me going. Also had a lot of questions for them getting myself back up to speed after the 10 year hiatus! Never did he seem annoyed or try to break away. Hard to find good customer service these days but they had it! I'll definitely be back to support the local business as my tank goes through the cycle nightmare!

Place has a sweet selection of frags and a decent variety. Great prices all across the board and knowledgable staff. Tanks are clean and my frags didn't have any unwanted algae or hitchhikers. They even gave me an online special they were running on zoas that wasn't advertised in store. Definitely worth your time to check them out!
