Acuario Loto

Experiencia fantástica: Very quick and helpful, very beautifully kept marine life. Got my assassin snails here! Very nice staff very friendly.

Experiencia fantástica: Small store, but loaded with a variety of items and the people that work there are friendly and knowledgeable.

Experiencia fantástica: Great aquarium shop with knowledgeable staff.

Experiencia positiva: It’s been a year since I left my one star review. I’ve been back a few times and I’m happy to say that the Owners took my review to heart and the place stays clean, the Fish look happy, and the customer service was great, thank you, Lotus aquarium for taking the time to take care of not only the Fish environment But your customers as well, you are appreciated in a community. Oh yeah guys and the prices are great! I feel bad for the fish and coral that are subjected to the poor living conditions. Fish tanks are filthy, red slime on the rocks, and expired products. I say take your chances elsewhere rather than risking your whole tank becoming contaminated.

Experiencia fantástica: Best place to buy corals every Black Friday sale.

Experiencia fantástica: I love this store. Has very good products

Experiencia fantástica: Small place but has a great selection of fresh water fish

Experiencia fantástica: Favorite aquarium ever!! Love this place. Such kind workers too. Only fish store you’ll ever need! They truly have everything.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent service, very helpful when it comes to helping you choose a product and very dedicated to their work.

Experiencia fantástica: Very helpful employees helped me get my saltwater tank started

Experiencia positiva: Good shop. Decent prices with good quality

Experiencia fantástica: Absolutely amazing store, knowledgeable staff with a lot of experience to back it all up. It's a far drive from where I live, but I will definitely make a habit of visiting here more often.

Experiencia fantástica: The staff is great there. Always helpful and answers my questions... Good selection of fishes and some great display tanks...

Experiencia positiva: Sergio is extremely helpful and has an amazing assortment of aquatic plants and animals that will make your aquarium look amazing.

Experiencia fantástica: Very knowledgeable staff and selections can vary but they try to keep various kinds of fish and shrimps. Been coming here past 5 years since I started aquarium Hobby and one of the best in LA

Experiencia fantástica: This is an amazing store. I have bought all of my fish stuff from here for over 3 years. I recently had a Betta fish that I've had for 1.5 years get really sick. I went there and they were very kind and understanding and gave me two medications. They worked quickly and now it is better. Thanks lotus aquarium!

Experiencia negativa: This store sells fish with ich as long as the customers are distracted and not aware of it. The main problem with me was the owner's lack of understanding and the negative attitude displayed during our conversation. They have good selections that will attract many customers in but their maintenance and care for these fishes are below subpar, they even have a message begging the customers to feed their fish because the owners are very very cheap. Cleanliness is non-existent at this store and cross contamination is evident by the ich infested tanks which can be seen across the store, they even place their quarantine tank right in the center of their display tanks with no sign of such. I recently went back and try to talk with the owner about the fish with ich i purchased in his store but the owner was so certain that he never sells fish with ich. it was hard to take him seriously when there were tanks with ich scattered all over his store. The business owner doubled down on his lies and told me to go elsewhere when i was planning to purchase some cory, making my long drive for a naught. Terrible behavior as a business owner

Experiencia fantástica: I have been going to this place for over 10 years and nothing but great experience here. Chris and Sergio are knowledgeable and friendly. They always have fish other stores don't have. Would recommend to anyone.

Experiencia positiva: Small fish store. Have very nice and different fish. But. They are very pricee

Experiencia fantástica: This is my favorite aquarium store and has the nicest, most experienced staff and has so much aquarium supplies and fish.

Experiencia fantástica: Came here to start the kiddo’s “ I want a pet betta fish phase” and Sergio Jr was super helpful and patient with us while we asked a MILLION questions. Ended up buying our entire set up and so glad we did since he made it so convenient for us. He was super honest with the pricing of everything and offering options that better suited our lifestyle and budget. This place was so great and def recommend to beginner fish owners!

Experiencia fantástica: Small shop but quality selections. Chris, the owner knowledgeable and helpful. Fair prices

Experiencia fantástica: Great business awesome customer service

Experiencia fantástica: This place is beautiful and satisfied for the job they're doing

Experiencia fantástica: Real good vibe and the staff are very friendly 100% recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Wide veriatie of pet products at good prices.

Experiencia negativa: Didn't have anything worth buying place definitely need to upgrade on species of fish

Experiencia negativa: Visited this place last week and let's just say I will be happy to see them clean this place up. I mean come on you guys have all the things to keep your tanks clean inside. Why be in the business of living organisms if you don't have appreciation for all creation? I guess some things are just about profit.

Experiencia fantástica: They Are A Small Store, But They Have Everything That You Need For Your Aquarium...

Experiencia positiva: Not a great selection of fresh water fish but friendly staff..

Experiencia fantástica: Lost of exotic fish. They mentioned to me there's also a process to order other types of fish if they don't have it in stock. Kinda small, so it can get crowded with just a few people there. There's parking/entrance around back if you can't park out front. I get sad/angry when I walk into a pet store(mostly chain stores) to find dead fish in the tank. Looks cheap and not a good sign you have healthy fish. Never a problem here tho. Always clean water and healthy looking fish.

Experiencia positiva: Give you good advice

Experiencia fantástica: Very helpful and informative

Experiencia fantástica: I love this place they have good service, and they have all the fish I need, they also have small turtles. This is the fish place you have try

Experiencia fantástica: Small shop but you can find 90% of what you need

Experiencia fantástica: Great location most of not all fish look healthy. Great place for information and plants and help if I need it. They also have a dog groomer! Definitely recommend to any fish lovers shrimps too

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly staff that helped educate us as well

Experiencia fantástica: Bought at least 10 fish from here and they’re all healthy also their fish food is very well priced!

Experiencia fantástica: Very cool fish store with a good selection. The people are super helpful and knowledgeable too

Experiencia fantástica: Kris is awesome, very humble nice person one can ever meet, his wife Maria as well super nice people, always helpful, and don’t forget both Sergio’s I give this place 100 if I could Always come to them for salt and fresh water fish

Experiencia fantástica: Lotus is amazing. If you’re looking to get into aquascaping or any other freshwater aquarium hobby, you’re in the right place.

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone is super friendly and patient. If you have questions, they will walk you through step by step. You can find all common and rare fish here. Only fish store I go to in the south bay!

Experiencia fantástica: Nice people, affordable prices

Experiencia fantástica: One of the best freshwater fish stores I have been to in Los Angeles

Experiencia positiva: I bought 2 catfish and they died

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome little mom and pop aquarium store. Friendly staff, great selection of small fish, shrimp, snails, turtles, and sometimes little crabs. They take fish in trade too.

Experiencia fantástica: This place is cool and the fish and turtles are cheap

Experiencia fantástica: I love this place, because they are able to answer all questions about aquarium life and care. Above all a good customer service.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing store! They have everything that I need. Super friendly staff. Love coming here! Thank you guys

Experiencia fantástica: Always busy. Nice, knowledgeable, hard working couple who owns and runs it

Experiencia positiva: This isn't the largest fish store I've ever been in nor the most organized or cleanest but all the fish seemed healthy and their prices were very reasonable. Got a few amano shrimp and otos for a good price. The shrimp have already cleared out some of the hair algae in my junk tank!

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly, helpful staff! Great selection of modern, borderless tanks, aquatic plants, and pruning tools! And amazingly beautiful displays of the same! They also have terrariums and my favorite pets, tree frogs :)

Experiencia positiva: Lovely place just I little bit more expensive other close places. Never go when is busy, is a super small place and they don’t have enough employees.

Experiencia negativa: Needs more different fish. The prices are high. But the staff is very helpful

Experiencia positiva: Lots of happy fish. They fit a lot into a small footprint and have a nicely sized parking lot. The lady who checked us out and packed our fish took a lot of care with them and we loved the service. Update: within 48 hours, we had 2 shrimp, 2 cpd, 2 corydora die. They would be swimming around and eating and suddenly dead 15 minutes later without any obvious marks on their body. We called in hopes of a replacement/refund, but she said the fish in their store were still happy (or sold out) therefore it wasn't their fault. I'm sad that this happy memory has been tainted now. I hope the rest of my guys make it.

Experiencia fantástica: This place has all kinds of fish and deals I got my first salt water tank here

Experiencia fantástica: So nice to see and share with my son the kinds of fish they have my son enjoyed very much

Experiencia fantástica: Actually answer all questions. They know their stuff

Experiencia fantástica: Employees were knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. Great selection of freshwater fish, and some saltwater. We weren't there for supplies but noticed some. There were very few dead or unhealthy looking fish, in contrast to the place we visited just before Lotus. Would recommend and visit again. Update: Still great. We returned several months later; the fish we had previously purchased are doing well, and we bought a dozen more. The employees were helpful again. A sign out front requests face masks for customers, but that wasn't being enforced.

Experiencia positiva: Could be a little friendlier. But that's just me, but i like this place its small but they have the expertise that you are looking for if your a beginner or expert with sea creatures and reptiles.

Experiencia fantástica: Good selection of fish, decor, and other supplies. Extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Have not restocked my 150G in a long time, but still have some aggressive Cichlids. Lotus was helpful to pick out some other community fish that will survive well.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent place and very friendly environment they are amazing

Experiencia fantástica: Nice crew, amazing variety of fish, decorative items, fish food, wood, stone, and...

Experiencia fantástica: Expert Service, large selection and very Friendly Staff. Very Educated and Professional. My Go to Aquarium Store.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing small shop with awesome staff and quality stuff!! 100% recommend

Experiencia fantástica: Love this spot something for everyone always see new fish every time I'm in there small saltwater section but nice planted aquariums and everything you need for it great shop

Experiencia fantástica: Good lil spot by my house. Just found these guys. Kinda small, but they seem to have what you need and they're all nice people working there.

Experiencia fantástica: Nice local fish shop and the workers there are really nice and helpful

Experiencia fantástica: They have a lot of different kinds of fish to buy here customer service is awesome.

Experiencia fantástica: Cool little local fish store, I'm surprised by the selection they have. The tanks are well maintained, they even have an area for you to build your aquascape in order to visualize it better. A smaller intimate store but wide selection of fish and products. Staff are always friendly and willing to help.

Experiencia positiva: Very nice varieties to select from. And they have them in all sizes

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly and helpful people work here.

Experiencia fantástica: Very helpful got fish and plants. Very nice shop looks very clean and fish taken care of well. Except some betas, dead in the cups. Will be going back.

Experiencia fantástica: I'm lucky enough to be a few blocks away. Lotus is a hole in the wall gem of a fish store. Just as much supply and equipment as a big store while having fish that most others don't. I've yet to have a fish or plant fail from this store. Here's my 5g nano I stocked from them.

Experiencia fantástica: Nice people. Very helpful.

Experiencia fantástica: Love Chris and Maria both husband and wife, they do a great job place is very clean and there always very helpful also have reasonable prices.

Experiencia fantástica: Always a pleasure great. Customer. Service every time I come by

Experiencia fantástica: Really nice place for fish lovers and the people there really helpful

Experiencia fantástica: They always give me good quality food for my lizards.

Experiencia positiva: Pretty cool little fish shop. With some awesome aquariums and one massive setup in the back. Will go back when they get next shipment.

Experiencia fantástica: Lotus aquarium is my favorite fish shop in LA. They are friendly, clean and always have unique offerings at great prices.

Experiencia positiva: Nice little spot w/ a big inventory even though the store has a small footprint. Can get a little busy on weekends, so weekdays are best if you want to walk around & ask questions. I have been here many times & service is usually very good. Beautiful display tanks to give you some ideas. Fish are usually healthy, though I did notice some dead pea puffers in a tiny tank. Was a bit disappointed because they have a ton of plants in many of their tanks, but a number of them are not for sale.

Experiencia fantástica: The store was small but adequately stopped with product and information. The small selection of fish they did have seem very healthy and happy.

Experiencia fantástica: First time in the shop was a pleasant experience! I was helped promptly even though there were lots of customers. They have a big variety, maybe more then they should for the space but I'm not complaining.

Experiencia fantástica: It was so professional friendly and helpful. Love this place.

Experiencia fantástica: This place might be small but it's jam-packed with all great aquascaping materials and livestock

Experiencia fantástica: Great shop very helpful staff

Experiencia fantástica: Great selection friendly staff

Experiencia fantástica: Helpful staff, cool selection

Experiencia fantástica: Super helpful staff and high quality tanks in the store, which gives them great credibility and are very inspiring!

Experiencia fantástica: The best service and prices in South Bay!

Experiencia fantástica: Kris is great very knowledgeable and full of suggestions. I love this place.

Experiencia fantástica: Chris is the the man ... His wife even knows more about fish then me lol

Experiencia fantástica: My favorite Don't go to petco

Experiencia fantástica: Small shop but good selection of things

Experiencia fantástica: A very small store that has the healthiest tanks/fish I've seen. Plenty of hardscape materials as well. They even had a place where you can mock build hardscapes before you buy them. The small square footage of the store means not as much variety in terms of stock, but what they have is quality. Definitely will be going again!
