New Island Aquarium

Nice location with NO selection. I don't know what day they restock livestock but I was not impressed. Large amount of marine tanks but very sm selection of fish. "Reef" tank is pretty large with only a hand full of corals, the ones that were there didn't look healthy. Prices were average for salt and fresh. Freshwater just cichlids. Customer service, I said to one of the workers "good morning" nothing in return except a look...later the same guy says to me "what do you want?" I look at him and say "excuse me?" and then I just walk out.

Nothing. $25 Fish dies on the 10 min ride home and when we called the store they said they could not accomodate us! Should have known this was a flop bc the store was empty when we arrived. Will never recommend to anyone to buy from here. Warranty says No guarantee on livestock.

I live in Manhattan and was tired of the PETCO experience. I have a 150 gl saltwater tank. Buying unique fish in Manhattan is challenging.I headed outside of Manhattan to New Isl Aquarium in Brooklyn. It was easy to park when I arrived. When I walked inside it was a "fish disney world". Amazingly colorful fish everywhere! There was a 120 gl tank full of clown trigger fish (just under 100). I was in awe!

I found a Remora Shark (Not really a shark, but called one) that was always something I wanted. The staff was warm and chatted with me with no pressure. They even showed me that the remora would try to play fetch when they bounced a ball on the aquarium. I bought him and a parrot fish. They simulated perfectly to my tank and are healthy. They gave me great advice and set me up with membership that gets me future discounts. This will be my weekend fish shopping moving forward.

Great Service! A wide variety of Healthy fish! Clean location! And even a showroom with cool tanks.
Highly recommended!

Place is under new management. Everything seems to be improved constantly. They has huge inventories of salt water fishes and fresh water fishes. I have bought many healthy fishes with good discounts from helpful staff.

Nice staff and they have a large inventory of salt water fish
