Spadina Aquarium

Staff was nice , good if you're looking for fish/aquarium items not so much dogs and cats Had the cutest bunnies I've seen

The owner was super friendly and knowledgeable! Spent around an hour just browsing and picking out aquarium accessories - they have everything! I’m excited to go back and buy some live plants! 100% recommend this pet store, especially for aquarium beginners!

The staff was very welcoming, the store layout is pretty organized. It's mainly a fish & bird pet store. The fish they have is pretty amazing and slightly pricey. It was a nice experience walking through the store. The story isn't fancy but from what I've seen, they really take care and pride in their animals.

Every single one of their betta fish has extremely severe fin rot. They don't allow you near the live fish anymore, probably because others here have posted pics of the deplorable conditions they're in. So you know it's pretty bad when I could spot the fin rot from 6 feet away. The other live animals are all being kept in enclosures that are way too small for them and extremely overcrowded. To the owners: Please research the minimum care guides of the animals you're keeping, this is wrong. I counted and you actually have enough 3 gallon tanks in store to house all of your betta fish. You could start small with that. They need heaters too, as they are tropical fish. You are causing them a slow agonizing death where their organs are slowly shutting down from the cold, and their skin and insides are constantly burning from ammonia poisoning. Imagine the air you breathe burning your lungs. Recent studies have proven fish can feel pain, please do the right thing.

I wanted to like this place but they don’t take good care of their animals. A lot of them don’t have enough enrichment or space: many fish tanks have nothing but the filter inside, the ferret cage had nothing but bedding/food/water, a canary only had a single perch and no toys, and the hamster cages were extremely small and some didn’t even had a hut to hide in. The staff were a mixed bag; the daughter was kind but the parents were watching me and didn’t want any people to look, only buy. I felt so sad seeing those poor hamsters in microscopically small and dirty cages

Staff extremely nice and helpful! They are very passionate when it comes to the animals and their business. Will stop by frequently when I need aquarium/fish supplies

This place is quite disgusting in terms of how they treat the animals. Ive called and went there in person and everytime they say that its cleaning day even though when i call i tell them a different day than i came in. After the 1st time i complained they added some enrichment in a few tanks but most animals were trying to hide behind the filter or a piece of twig or in a corner its quite heartbreaking and beyond appalling that they find this acceptable. Quite sad and heartbroken for these animals who survived the shipping process only to be put in these lonely "cold" tanks while the bright white light surrounds them. Do better. I dont understand how you guys think this is acceptable. This pics do no justice. The videos show how traumatizing it must be for them. Including the lobster running back and forth irradically and fish hiding behind filters in tanks.

They take very good care of their fish from what I’ve seen. Just bought a bunch of healthy fancy guppies, and they are a delight!

Downtown Pets & Aquarium The price was high. The place was clean and large. The staff was helpful and kind. They sell many kinds of pets and Aquarium needs. It located on Chinatown market on lower level.

I would give this place two stars but I feel like it's kind of unfair given the fact that the mall they are in doesn't really see customers like any, more than half the mall is in darkness so the prices are kind of self-explanatory. The fish look happy but to be completely honest I feel like they would make more money if they lowered their prices. 59.99+tax for something I can get at less than half the price one block over it's just foolish business.
