I love the service at thee fishbowl. I walked in and looked around and noticed the mice. I love them and they look so cute. then I started asking the person at the front desk questions about the mice and they answered all of my questions and gave me the overall price for a mouse. Then when I got home I got on Facebook to ask about the mice food and cost and I got an answer within minutes of when I asked. the service is really incredible and I'm glad they're in my neighborhood. 

Business response:

Thank you!

They buy they're animal in bad places and I bought a ball python and 1 month later it died from a fairly rare decease. Never buy from them, they even take care of they're animal wrong. they have low humidity for snakes when they need 70 percent they gave this pied 30 percent. it was shedding bad and I know why. That low percent can kill a reptile over some time. Buy from breeders or specialty stores for them. My friend also bought a beta fish and they recommended him a flower face for it? That's not enough room, I'm waiting ... read more

I highly recommend The Fish Bowl to anyone who loves pets. From the first day that I walked into Thee Fish Bowl, about a year and a half ago, I have been impressed with the staff’s caring attitude and expertise regarding the wide variety of animals they carry. My cat of 18 years had recently died and I was looking for a different type of pet. They took their time and helped me figure out what animal best fit my criteria and I’ve been very pleased with my Beardie. Nobody ever tries to ‘up-sell’ you or rush you. The staff is v... read more

My girlfriend and I live in Minneapolis. We were in Evanston visiting family when we stopped in, and saw a little baby girl ferret. We immediately fell in love with her but did not purchase her. We drove back to Minneapolis and couldn't stop thinking about her, so we called them and put a hold on the ferret. My girlfriend drove all the way BACK to Evanston, only to find out they had sold the ferret anyway. When we complained they tried to pawn us off to a different pet store. If we wanted a different ferret we would have jus... read more

Really awesome store! Their staff is so friendly and very knowledgeable. They hold a lot of adoption events for the rescue where I volunteer —- Community Animal Rescue Effort. We have had lots of adoptions during our events there so we always look forward to the next time we will be there. �

My roommates and I purchased 4 neon tetra fish 3 days ago. Right away we noticed that there was something really wrong with one of them, she had yellowy glazed eyes and was significantly larger and lumpier than the others. We figured it had neon tetra disease and I am extremely disappointed that I was sold a fish that was sick and died 2 days later. I was considering getting more animals from here, but after this experience I definitely won't be.
