Been getting my fish, shrimp and aquatic plants from Swimming Creatures since I’ve started keeping fish. Always receive friendly, knowledgeable service and one or two insurance fish with my purchase. Animals and plants are always healthy too. I recommend them especially for shrimp and invertebrates as they have a great selection.

CLEAN TANKS. HEALTHY STOCK. GUARANTEED ARRIVAL.
From crystal-clear tank water to a mandatory quarantine period, every shrimp and fish is vetted for health before it ships. Insulated, temperature-controlled packaging carries that same standard the rest of the way — safely, every time.

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.

Top tier live fish and shrimp supplier. The packaging was immaculate—insulated box with heating packs, and every single specimen arrived active and healthy. Hands down the healthiest Neocaridina shrimp I’ve ordered online. Their customer service is also super responsive and knowledgeable.

Stopped by their Brea location to check out their freshwater fish and hardscape selection. The showroom tanks are pristine and clearly well-cared for, not like your typical chain pet store. Picked up a group of corydoras and some moss. Everything settled into my tank immediately without issue. Will definitely be back!
