Purchased a tank setup from Joe. Very pleased with his knowledge and quality. If his prices are higher than other places, I take into account that I am getting good stock and valuable advice. Priceless... Very easy to work with and we got exactly what we wanted.. AND he has been Super available after he cashed the check.. Highly recommend this business

I have been dealing with Joe for 7 years and he does an amazing job. he stands behind his fish and any work he does for you. I wouldn't go anywhere else to get anything. I tried once and got ick in my tank. Never had any issues with anything I have gotten from Joe in all these years. Thanks Joe!!

I would give more than 5 stars if I could!!! Joe is an awesome person and my husband has been and will be a lifetime friend/customer. Even when he is out of town I know I can ask Joe for advice. He saved our tank from a disaster. Great selection and amazing knowledge!!

Everyone in this hobby in the Richmond area knows of Joe and FW. He has been a staple for years and many people working at other locations began with Joe. In previous years past, Fish World is one of the most informative places in the hobby, though it came with a hefty price tag, however, the livestock had a very high success rate. You definitely get what you pay for in this hobby.It has been a while since I have been to Fish World. I am a casual shopper, at times I may just buy something small, others I will pay whatever the cost. However, the last couple of visits, I began to feel unwelcome. My wife and I waited in line to purchase a fish, and were skipped over to people behind us, twice, who were obviously planning to spend more money. Frustrated by the experience, we left. I decided to return on a slower day to pick up the fish for my wife, and was ignored again. It felt as if you were part of the big spenders club, you would be taken care of.I have not returned since, as the years have allowed ability to purchase on the internet and newcomers in the business. Several acquaintances have had similar “hit or miss experiences”. If you are planning to spend big, need help setting up an expensive system, or building a custom tank, this place is definitely for you. If you are just a casual reefer, you may have better luck somewhere else or online.

Joe is an extremely pleasant person. Spend some time looking at his display tanks, corals, and fish.. remember that everything you observe will happen in your tank( unless of course you have a very solid quarantine process.) great on promises but poor on follow through!!

The prices here are hard to beat. I got a variety of great corals and will definitely be back for more. Chase was extremely helpful as well!

You couldn’t pay me to put a fish from this store into my tank. Maybe I caught them on a bad day, but every fish was sick. Some gorgeous fish still for sale, despite being quite ill. No sign of treatments. Coral tanks overrun with pests and didn’t look like they’d been cleaned in years. A total disgrace.Maybe their prices are great, but their care of live animals leaves much to be desired. I left heartbroken for the animals in their “care”. Support a shop that actually cares and go to Tiki Corals.
