🗣️ Corales y Servicio de Matt: Opiniones
Experiencia fantástica: Always helpful and a good experience. I've been shopping here for years and continue to tell others to come here for corals.
Experiencia fantástica: I have not visited this store but I order a tank from them online and also told a friend about them and he also ordered a tank. What people are saying is true. The customer service is excellent and the merchandise is very good quality. I recommend Matt’s Corals & Service. P.S if I’m ever in Ohio I plan to visit
Experiencia fantástica: Cleanest fish store I’ve ever been in. Knowledgeable staff, great customer service and large selection of fish and coral!
Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic store. Great fish, better service. Been frequenting almost a year now and it's the best place we've been to so far in ohio.
Experiencia fantástica: Knowledgeable friendly staff
Thank you for leaving a review, Deborah! We're so happy to see this.
Experiencia fantástica: Great place!! My husband absolutely loves it. Great prices and coral prices. We have not gotten anything bad.
Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to leave a review, Christina! We're grateful for your business and appreciate that feedback.
Experiencia fantástica: Great customer service. They helped me pick out the first fish for my tank and I couldn’t be happier. Fish are doing well and growing. The prices here for fish, corals, and equipment are actually priced pretty well that’s why they are my go to place for anything I need for my tank. Plus Brandon does a biweekly maintenance on my tank and honestly that helps me out a lot. Makes sure everything goes right and if you have any issues he handles it for you. Got my tank running great.
Thank you for this awesome review, William! We're so happy Brandon could help you as you join the hobby :)
And yes, we do try hard to keep our prices competitive - even with online retailers. Most people assume online is cheaper, so that's why we actually encourage customers to price compare before buying online!
Experiencia fantástica: Today was the first time I’ve ever been there had an absolutely wonderful time. Owen did an outstanding job. Had a great time.
Thank you so much for leaving a review, Chris! We love hearing that we made a good first impression. Hope to see you back soon!

Experiencia fantástica: This is the #1 aquarium store in the central Ohio market. Matt keeps the most clean and organized store, often loaded with healthy livestock in well maintained systems. The staff is unpretentious and knowledgeable, never pushy, always striking that tricky balace with their approach with new hobbiest and experts alike.
Wow thanks for the awesome review, William! We really appreciate your business and look forward to seeing you again soon :)
Experiencia fantástica: Such a neat aquarium store! My boyfriend and I love coming here to browse the huge selection of unique tropical saltwater fish and corals.

Thank you so much, Hailey! We're so happy you enjoy visiting our store.

Experiencia fantástica: Nicest shop in the Columbus area hands down!
Thank you so much for leaving a review, Erik!
Experiencia fantástica: Matt’s Coral & Service is by far the best saltwater shop in Ohio. The shop itself is very clean, organized, modern and with good prices. The employees Brandon, Aiden, and owner Matt are all very friendly, knowledgeable and willing to answer as many questions as you may have. They set up and maintain my 130G Tideline and have continued to do a great job.
Thank you so much for the kind words and loyal business, Cody! We really appreciate the review.
Experiencia fantástica: Great shop! By far the best in Columbus. Matt and staff are very happy to answer questions and do everything they can to help.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review, Stephen!
Experiencia fantástica: The store has a good selection of tanks, coral, fish, and inverts! It also has a very clean and modern look, and does not look like they just jammed it full with as many tanks as they could
Experiencia fantástica: Great store, great staff and great prices!!
Experiencia fantástica: Matt is the Best in the area for your coral and saltwater fish needs. Highly recommend.
Experiencia fantástica: Very clean and very helpful
Experiencia fantástica: Great selection and very knowledgeable staff.
Experiencia fantástica: Excellent selection, staff are more than helpful and super friendly. Got our Clownfish from them, and any questions or concerns we have had, they have been more than accommodating and will answer them all! Highly recommend!
Experiencia fantástica: We stopped in for some freshwater supplies, not realizing they specialize in salt water and coral, but we stayed just to look around. Really cool shop with beautiful tanks and lots of variety to choose from.
Experiencia fantástica: We are very new to Matt’s but are so glad we found this place tucked in Gahanna! They have an amazing selection of corals, tanks, and fish. And their staff has been nothing short of incredible. Super helpful, unpressured environment and they truly help. They’ll answer any questions you have!
Experiencia fantástica: Extremely knowledgeable staff. Great selection with a very mature coral assortment.
Experiencia fantástica: Very helpful staff, healthy livestock, fairly affordable, knowledgeable, clean, Matts is a very nice place for fish shopping.
Experiencia fantástica: Staff is amazingly friendly and always helpful and full of knowledge!! Have great coral and fish! Place is always clean and well stocked! This is my wife and my favorite LFS!
Experiencia positiva: Was kind of stunned to see “Donated clown fish” being sold for $50(nothing special or large by any means), and then their regular stock of clowns only $19.99, pretty much the same size. I could not for the life of me wrap my head around why they would want $50 for a fish that was given to them, (there were several of these by the way, even one pair labled “donated pair $100”) but want 250% less money for fish they purchased for stock. I mean, if someone gave you the fish, why not offer it at a discounted price to someone new to the hobby, instead of trying to sell something that’s worth $19.99 for $50?? So weird. I hate capitalism
Joe,
Thank you for your feedback, and I’m truly sorry to hear that your experience at our store didn’t meet your expectations. We strive to find good homes for our fish, especially those labeled as “donated,” which come from owners who trust us to care for them responsibly. While some species may seem quite similar, there are often subtle differences that can affect their pricing, something we’re happy to explain further.
Regarding your comment on capitalism, I completely understand the sentiment. As a family-owned business, we pride ourselves on paying our employees a living wage and ensuring ethical practices in all aspects of our operations. If you’re looking to support businesses that value both their workers and customers, I encourage you to consider how larger competitors might affect their employees and communities.
Thank you again for taking the time to share your thoughts, and I hope we can have the opportunity to serve you better in the future.
Experiencia fantástica: Friendly, helpful staff and a wide variety of salt, fresh and some brackish fish. So many tanks! Lots of choices and fun to just look at some of the gigantic ones they have! Hidden gem!
Experiencia negativa: Sold me a protein skimmer they said would fit in my tank. 2 trips worth 50 in gas to seek correction, one nasty electric shock (from mains voltage after setting it up the way they told me and I can honestly say I am disgusted. I almost died (no kidding and verified the skimmer was ridiculous) I will never set foot in the shop again and will cut my losses at 90 dollars based on poor recommendations. Avoid at all costs. (OH and by the way, electrical based tech for 20 years, this was not on me.)
Experiencia positiva: Happened to be in Columbus and thought we would swing by on our way home. The store was clean, and there were some nice coral and fish options (everything looked healthy too, which was great). But the downside was there seemed to be a few workers, but not one of them came over to see if we needed help finding anything. We did have our twins with us, but they're well-behaved, so I'm not sure why they kept a distance. The bummer is I did like some of the fish and probably would have bought one if they would have asked, but I don't go out of my way to buy where I'm not being helped. Again, the stock looked good, but the lack of attention is what lost the sale for us. We probably won't go back.
Experiencia fantástica: Beautiful corals, helpful staff, reasonable prices. Fantastic place to shop.
Experiencia fantástica: Best place to buy salt water fish, very knowledgeable
Experiencia fantástica: Best fish shop in Columbus. Clean, well taken care of fish and inverts. Corals are beautiful, colorful, and healthy. Workers are friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful!
Experiencia fantástica: Clean setup store, constantly improving selection, helpful staff
Experiencia fantástica: I love this place
Experiencia fantástica: Great selection of livestock and dry goods.
Experiencia fantástica: We visited Matt's Corals twice in one day. Clean store, tanks, healthy fish and coral. A good selection of unique high end corals. Great prices. Knowledgeable and even sent us to to some other stores to check out. We still ended up back here for a second time because they had better quality and prices. Overall good people.
Experiencia fantástica: Phenomenal store !! Great husbandry of all their livestock !!! Matt is a leader in the industry
Experiencia fantástica: Great customer service and a fantastic selection. Top notch no one else is better in the area.
Experiencia fantástica: Very clean, everything looks healthy, one of my favorite places to come shop.
Experiencia fantástica: My son and I stopped in recently for the first time and bought a couple clown fish. I thought the staff was friendly and they had a great selection of coral - looking forward to getting some soon! The store itself was a bit cramped, but the tanks were clean, the fish looked happy and healthy, and their prices were reasonable. We will definitely be going back!
Experiencia fantástica: Clean store. Knowledgeable staff.
Experiencia fantástica: Great staff and selection
Experiencia fantástica: Matt’s Corals installed my custom made aquarium approximately three years ago. They did a very professional job. When you visit the store, they always have a great selection of corals and products and it is always impeccably clean.
Experiencia fantástica: Beautiful, healthy corals and great deals!
Experiencia fantástica: Matt’s is my go to place for corals when I’m in Columbus! They have a great selection and great prices.
Experiencia fantástica: Very clean, reasonable price and super helpful employees. Went to 3 stores this weekend and this was the best.
Experiencia fantástica: Nice little shop tucked away in a tiny suite on Lincoln Circle. I was delighted to see a very comprehensive selection of everything one might need for reef keeping, including cured wet live rock and RODI systems. I thought prices were very fair, even for a brick and mortar shop in the middle of Gahanna. Helpful and friendly employees, eager to provide advice if asked. It's a long drive from my house in Mount Vernon, but I will gladly make the trip again. The 2 fish that I bought acclimated well and are healthy and thriving, already eating!
Experiencia fantástica: Excellent excellent excellent wealth of knowledge plan on numerous trips gives me 100% attention with questions Etc
Experiencia fantástica: Great selection of corals and fish!
Experiencia fantástica: Lots of choices and exceptional customer service
Experiencia fantástica: This is a very nice place. It's nice and clean and the staff is really kind. I got some clean up crew and a clownfish. I do have to pick on the fact that a copperband butterfly fish had white spot and was housed with a ton of clownfish. Also there was a few dead fish. But to be honest I loved my visit there and will be coming back. Edit: I got another clownfish and he was super healthy. Like last time staff was extremely kind and informative. This is most possibly the best saltwater aquarium shop there is.
Experiencia fantástica: The staff is very friendly. I get Silversides for my turtle there. Looks like a great selection of saltwater products!
Experiencia fantástica: Best saltwater aquarium store in Columbus.
Experiencia fantástica: Love this place, always fun to check it out. Good prices
Experiencia fantástica: Madison and the guys "I'm sorry I haven't gotten their names yet " are always so helpful and patient with all my questions. They have the best selection of higher end aquarium products that normally i would have to purchase online. The livestock they offer is top-notch as well and great prices. I will continue to try to get as much as possible from Matt's because I feel it's a critical resource for the hobby to have a great local business that succeeds.
Experiencia fantástica: Small businesses owner. Pleasant atmosphere. The employees are super helpful and can answer almost any question you might have. He has tons of frags, a nice variety of fish, pre-treated salt water to sell (so bring your buckets), and supplies. He very often has more rare coal fragments, clams and fish.
Experiencia fantástica: Love the selection and the all the knowledge
Experiencia negativa: It's a shame someone with this limited of knowledge runs a store. Save your money and seek a professional.
Hi David,
If you have had a bad experience, please contact me directly at [email protected]. I will be happy to discuss further!
Thanks,
Matt
Experiencia fantástica: Nice clean store with beautiful livestock! Tanks had corals I haven't seen offered lately. I bought the most gorgeous Male African Midas Blenny that's healthy and already eating. Prices were about the same elsewhere so within the normal hobby pricing. Will be going back when I'm in the Columbus Ohio area again.
Experiencia negativa: I purchased a bashsea skimmer and it came in defective and damaged. I was never able to use it because of these defects caused by poor craftsmanship. the build quality was absolutely horrible. I was told by bashsea he was not willing to replace the skimmer so I got stuck with it. its sad when you spend over 800 dollars on something that doesn't work. I would stay away from bashsea products.
Hi Thomas,
I am so sorry you are having this issue. I was not aware of this, and am not even seeing any record of your order.
Please email me a copy of your order to [email protected] and we will get this straightened out ASAP!
Thanks,
Matt
Experiencia fantástica: I contacted them before purchasing and was super quick at getting back with me. I ordered the product and it was shipped right away. Perfect place to deal with, thanks again!
Experiencia fantástica: Clean great customer service due to well informed stay.
Experiencia fantástica: Always worth the trip...spent thousands here over the years and rarely have any issues with animals purchased here...highly recommended for all your saltwater needs!
Experiencia positiva: They helped me do a no contact order of livestock. Got my live rock from here for a fair price and the staff has been very helpful getting me started in my first saltwater aquarium. Edit: I started my saltwater aquarium using solely the RO saltwater from Matt's. I was fighting Algae my entire first year. After buying an RODI system all my algae problems have gone away. I really do like this store and the employees but the water that is sold to customers needs to be maintained better. I once walked in the store and asked them to test their water for me. I was told I would need to wait 10 minutes while they "refreshed" it before testing. This was the only time I was ever told they needed me to wait before getting saltwater. This didn't happen the 25 other times I went in to buy 15 gallons of water.
Thanks, Sam! We appreciate your business!!
Experiencia fantástica: It was the cleanest reef store I have ever been to. The fish where healthy, the tanks where spotless and the prices on the coral was phenomenal. I definitely will be returning
Experiencia positiva: Nice place, knowledgeable, and small
Experiencia fantástica: they offer great service and are always fair on pricing and offer great deals on supplies and on tanks Update 1/19/2022 I have bought over 30 tanks for Matts and all were set up by Matt and have never had a issue and they are the Best
Thank you, Sam! We appreciate your support!!
Experiencia fantástica: They have always been so willing to answer all my questions when I started out in the hobby and as I progressed, regardless of whether I bought anything or not. That being said, please visit the shop, the corals they have are GORGEOUS. They are worth a pretty penny, but you're definitely paying for quality pieces; no other storefront in the area comes close to it.
Experiencia negativa: Nice store besides all the dieing fish or dead fish in tanks. One fish was left in tank and missing it's head. Others dieing slowly. Ike laying on bottom of tanks to.
Experiencia positiva: Super clean and tons of coral. Prices are a bit out of reach on some items but definitely a nice little shop.
Experiencia positiva: We have been to some fish stores and it was very messy and unclean, this store was very clean.
Experiencia negativa: I scheduled service with this company back in May of this year. They committed to helping us move our 90 gallon fish tank this month, September 21st. I confirmed with Matt on August 30th and was assured they had us covered. On September 16th I received an email saying they lost an employee and wouldn’t be able to move our tank. My Husband called Matt on September 17th to let him know we would assist the company with moving but needed their professional assistance. However, Matt was unwilling and unable to help us. This has left us in a horrible situation as other companies need advance notice for a job this large. If I could give Matt’s Corals & Service 0 stars I would. A unreliable and unprofessional company!!!!!
Janae,
As I explained on the phone and email, Unfortunately like the rest of the country we are experiencing a extreme labor shortage which has put us in a very difficult situation. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused.
Thanks,
Matt Bennett
Experiencia fantástica: Very knowledgeable and friendly! Help us tremendously to understand what our immediate needs were and were not. Highly recommend.
Experiencia fantástica: Top quality selection and help from the employees. Always a great experience
Experiencia fantástica: This place is super nice. They have an amazing selection of of corals, fish and products. Madison was super friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. This will most likely be my home store from now on. Thanks
Experiencia fantástica: Got two of my corals from here. One was a pulsing xenia and it is cool
Experiencia fantástica: Great selection of fish and corals, knowledgeable staff, and a great store stocked with all the reef gear you could ever need.
Thanks for the 5 Star Review, just another mustang guy! We appreciate your business!!
Experiencia fantástica: I when to Matt's coral and the staff is really nice and knolidgible. They had really good prices for fish stores. Thhis is my go to store for every thing saltwater!
Experiencia fantástica: Friendly and helpful! Good pricing compared to national chains but much better quality with a large selection. Also offers multiple deals and events with discounts.
Thank you for the 5 Star review!! We appreciate your business!
Experiencia fantástica: Tanks are spotless. Corals are priced very reasonably. Neatly stocked and organized. Very helpful staff and down to earth.
Thanks for the 5-Star Review, Jason!! We appreciate your business!
Experiencia fantástica: Great staff and selection of corals. Very healthy and clean setup.
Experiencia fantástica: Amazing selection of corals and inverts. Definitely a must see!
Experiencia positiva: Amazing coral selection! Store is super clean and set up very nice! The only down side is there are several sick and or dying fish in the sales tanks. Nature of the beast when selling fish and inverts directly from the supplier without a qt process first. Try to select a healthy animal and definitely quarantine it before introducing it into your tank at home.
Experiencia fantástica: Very knowledable about salt water tanks. Staff may helpful suggestions.
Experiencia fantástica: Very good service, tanks are kept very clean and fish and corals are extremely healthy. Higher end colonies aswell as smaller frags.
Experiencia fantástica: Great knowledge of the hobby and selection of coral.
Experiencia negativa: This is a terrible place to order online!!! First i received a damaged clam, it happens. . This was made up with 3 acros, 2 of which also died... I know what im doing and have over 350 acros and have never had this issue with anybody else out of over 100 orders.... The website has listings that aren't available and when brought to owners attention, who didn't bother to get back to me about it, a month later it's still for sale.... i called the store and the item was in fact sold over a month ago but still being offered.... Hopefully this shop is better in person but beware of ordering online!!!
Hi James- we are very sorry that you had a bad experience. We have contacted you to correct this but you did not seem interested in coming to an agreement. We strive for 5-Star Quality Service, so please reach out if there is anything else we can do to make things right.
Experiencia fantástica: Their store was very clean and the customer service was great! They helped me with what I was looking for. Thanks!
Thank you, Nicole!
