Used to be a great store that cared for their animals...now they are disgusting. I used to visit their old location prior to moving away from the cleveland area upon moving back i was excites to visit their new location with my husband and 6 yr old son. I was not only disappointed but horrified at the conditions the animals are kept in. It was a sad trip for everyone involved and I will be contacting someone to look into the conditions these animals are kept in as it is cruel and inhumane. Many dead fish, extremely poor reptile husbandry and overall dirty dirty dirty! Please do not support this business as it will only cause harm to more animals
If I could give it no stars I would. Stopped by and it was closed even tho it says it's open at the time I was there. Looked inside the door and it looks like a ghost town. Nothing like the pictures they display on their site. They also changed locations because the outside of the building is different in the picture then what is actually here.
If you're at least my age (40) you remember the days when your parents took you to a pet store where you pick out your first pet that you begged for all year long. You know the one that you promise to take care of, clean its cage, and feed it regularly? This is it throwback to the old school, owner on site, real expert pet store that caters exclusively to folks who keep fish. The owner of this particular store was the manager of the pet store that I went to throughout my childhood. I was thrilled as an adult to learn that he went off on his own and started Jurassic Aquatics. I can't say enough nice things about Fred and his business practices. Don't take it from me, visit the store sometime and see almost every customer who walks in treats him like they're old friends if not family. Do a little business at that store and you'll feel the same way. Anyone who has ever had this experience should at least check out Jurassic and see what you've been missing... You walk into a big box retail pet store and the idiot child who is just old enough to drive him or herself to work asks if they can help you. You asked for anything that is not directly in front of them and they immediately start drooling and call a manager. What should be a two-minute interaction with a sales person in a store turns into a 20 minutes or longer Fiasco to just explain what you're looking for... Because there isn't a chance in hell they've even heard of it. That will never happen at Jurassic, if it involves fish either saltwater or fresh, Fred is your man. By the way, they also offer full-service aquarium maintenance for those of us that are just a little too busy or appreciate the service of an expert to do it themselves. How many big-box retailers offer house calls?
I haven't been to yet but, I was told that I would not be disappointed And I would be sure to find the things I need
The levels of ammonia as you walk in the door made it difficult to breathe. The lighting was low and it looked more like a dungeon. The tanks were dirty and there were many dead fish as well as fish feeding on the dead. Big fish and animals were in tanks/cages that were entirely too small to even consider it cruel. We walked out before we finished looking around. I can't imaging anyone staying in business with conditions like that. Very sad.
I was checking out some fish stores in the area since I'm not from there, and was appalled. Looking at the reviews there are loyal customers, but something most have happened to the owner that he changed his practices.
