Swimming Creatures Tropical Pet Store

Swimming Creatures is a true hidden gem! The fish and shrimps are healthy and vibrant. The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable, helping me choose the right ones for my aquarium. Loved the whole experience — highly recommend this place to anyone into aquariums or just starting out!

This has to be the most understanding, helpful, cleanest, and healthiest fish store I have visited in Orange County. Not only are they super helpful, understanding and friendly. They offer the best tank advise I have been able to find in store. Their layout is also so clean and friendly to navigate for the small space. I will Continue to Drive in From the Beach to go and support this store! They are more than worth it! Please note: photos, this is my tank. All fish, snails and shrimp are from them. I found them on Amazon and then realized they were somewhat local for me. Totally worth the drive.

I bought two beta male dumbo from Swimming Creatures! They shipped from CA to NC!! I was worried about them getting there safely but they are doing so great! You can definitely tell they have their own personalities!! One is very friendly, one is very skittish!! I love to watch them!

Great store! I would recommend anyone in the hobby make a visit out. The shrimp selection is great, they had yellow amanos, caridina gracilirostris, and a few other hard to find species at a very good prices. Will definitely make this place my go to for shrimp. It's a promising new store.

This store is a hidden gem for aquarists! I was blown away by the incredible selection of fish and shrimp. They had everything from common favorites to rare and exotic species. What impressed me most was the obvious care they take in maintaining their tanks. The fish and shrimp looked healthy and vibrant, and the water was crystal clear. I also appreciated the knowledgeable and friendly staff who were able to answer all my questions and offer helpful advice as a newbie. I'll definitely be back!
