So very fortunate to have a top quality local aquarium store in my community. Vince is the best! He is very knowledgeable about all aspects of marine life, latest products and the multiplicity of different problems that come along with this hobby. His prices are fair and very competitive. This is a great store with a good variety of saltwater fish and products. I highly, highly, highly recommend Quantum Reefs to all! And to all a wonderful experience as aquarists!!
What a joke. Never written a review for anything, ever but this story needs to be heard. These people just want you to buy something and get you out of their way. They sold us a betta fish along with 4 cardinal tetras claiming they can live autonomously in a 5 gallon tank. Oh boy, were they wrong. The fish did well for a day. Then the next day, a tetra was attacked by the betta and killed. The next day another tetra was killed. We looked it up to see why this was happening and most people said the tetras need big spaces as they are school fish they like to just swim around all day. So to save the rest of the tetra's from dying, we returned them. Also in hopes for a refund since they sold us fish that clearly weren't able to live together. Instead, the grumpy owner, just stared at us until we left the store. What a joke. "They don't do refunds on small fish" How about you don't sell fish that are eventually gonna be murdered?? If they don't care about fish dying, why would they care about satisfying you as a customer. The only reason I don't completely ream these guys out is because of their variety and "knowledge" on saltwater fish. Would not recommend buying freshwater fish from here. Hey guys, either learn what you're talking about or don't sell freshwater fish! Just a thought.
A nice hidden gem. They are a little tucked away, but the shop is really nice. Lots of good corals, the right dry goods, even had clams.

Excellent staff! Went to another marine fish store in the area and got advice that contradicted what I had read on the internet but still followed their advice with sad consequences. Andy at Quantum Reefs did a tremendous job of patiently walking us through all the steps to get our new tank back on track. A few weeks later and our tank couldn't look happier. Looking forward to the next additions which will definitely be bought here.
I'm new to saltwater but done my time with tropical fish. So i was super excited to start something new! Made all the FNG mistakes and needed help. So went to the "other" reef store and was not helped. No one likes the new guy! Feeling frustrated i stopped by Quantum Reef. The owner welcomed me in and gave me the hard truths about the hobby. He was patient and helpful! I love that he would not sell me animals until i made some changes in my equipment! Prices are fare and he gave me has number if i had any questions.
