Petco: what do users think?
Rachel: They have a fishtank but they don't sell certain parts for it. You can't even order them online. You gave to rig it up or take a chance and buy stuff in hopes that it works.
X- Jay'900: Avoid the bark collars. Get them on Amazon instead
Jacqueline Cole: I would like to say thank you to Hannah 😊 She was so patient with me and kind...she has very good customer service skills and just a wonderful person. Thank you Hannah for helping me get items I needed to set up my fish tank 😊
MaryKaye Schut: So very helpful! They helped me pick the best food for my cats and looked up to give me the best prices!!
Joshua: People that work there were not very knowledgeable or friendly. At least not in the morning when I was there.
Julia Carter: I have no idea what has happened to this store, but it is absolutely disgusting ......it was filthy and had products all over the place opened and used but put back...DOG HAIR was everywhere... on everything.... water all over the floor in several places...NO SIGNS....EMPTY BOXES COVERED THIS STORE....DOG FOOD ALL OVER THE PLACE. .....nasty... nasty.......I went there to buy live crickets for my frogs and almost every single "live" item was dead.... in a box of 50, I recieved 3 live crickets....store discounted 30%.....LOL....Something has gone terribly wrong in the management department of that store...I'm embarrassed that store is even in my neighborhood.Noland road petco.... get your stuff together and clean your store!I WOULD HAVE GIVEN 0 STARS IF IT WOULD LET ME..
lorell pugh: They did a great job grooming my fur babies!
Crystal Rice: Staff was incredible. I arrived literally a minute before closing but they were the only place that was open to pick up my dogs food & my dogs had ran out. The closing manager kept the store open so I could quickly get the dogs food. She didn't have to because I know it delayed them getting out by a few minutes at least.
alw0725hi: Went above and beyond for me and they were very nice to me and my dogs never see this in Petsmart I believe it is more money for my bigger dog but worth it
Patti Smith: Went in to pick up crickets for my daughter and her fiance and came out with a lot of information about the gecko and it's proper way to feed it. Even was introduced to the cricket keeper to assist with keeping extra little devils on hand for the next feeding. I even found a few treats for my friend that was outside waiting for me but I didn't get my friend a treat just her dog LOL
Cynthia Bridges: I take my dog there to be groomed. Tara does a fabulous job with my senior dog.
Adrienne Lovely: This location is always organized and well stocked. If you have a pet who is maybe sick or being finicky about food, this place will have whatever you need to get through that situation. I had cats and whenever we needed something for them this place had it. Confidently Recommended!
Ericka Woodall: Found everything I needed and more. Staff were all helpful and knowledgeable. Will return.
Helen Holmes: It's a pet store they have lots of pet stuff people were nide
Randy Stark: It's 50/50 here. Nice employees they don't know much about the live animals and reptiles they have there. And their inventory on live pets is very slim.
Misty Lauck-Harves: Cashier was very helpful & friendly. All employees were working hard but still asked if I needed any help! They have my feline pine litter at a great price! I'll definitely shop there again! A+++++
Laura Estes: Employees are very helpful!
KIPPVETTI LUCIANO: I go to this petco location because the grooming dept ladies are fantastic but one lady stands above and is the turn reasan i drive to the noland road store. Her name is Lela she is always smiling,extea pleasent to deal with as well as knowledgeable she runs a tight ship and is very easy on the eyes. So if you want great service that is above and beyond. Try the petco co on noland road these ladies have vision flair and know what custmer service is all about. Thank you one and all
Frank Bibbs: Tried to buy fish already in store and drove all the way out there to be told because we're getting new fish acanthus sell
Steven Hitch: Not bad but dead fishes
R L: Great service! I had a 125 lb dog needing a harness. The girl working the register took the time to find the right size, put it on and adjust it, etc. It was better service than you ever get most places anymore. I wish I had made note of her name. She was very personable and reflected well for Petco.

Austin's Fish Tank Cleaning: what do users think?
Kyle Dunn: Very knowledgeable staff and great selection. Live this store.
Austin Gabriel: Could use more employees but the experience overall was good. I bought a fish from there and a couple aquatic fake plants. If I could give half star it would be 4.5
Pete Whiting: The owner and staff are very helpful. They always take the time to answer questions and provide advice!
Jeremiah Novelo: Over priced and never had any good selections of freshwater fish. Pet co down the road has the exact same fish for even less the prices.
brittiny rinehart: Super friendly and patient with us . Setting up our first tank I think we've been in 3 times in 2 weeks needing help.. always willing to take the time to answer our questions
Frank Bibbs: No fish hardly and lot of dirty empty tanks
Gage Higbee: We Took some fish up there and they took them straight from us and also we bought a lot of fish up there and they’ve gave us a lot of deals
djcmission: Tons of livestock, fresh and saltwater. If you are looking for something you can't get anywhere else, shop here before ordering fish or invertebrates online. A turtle pond in the back of the store keeps your family entertained.Family owned and operated.Buy your dry goods elsewhere. That's NOT their forte. They expect dissatisfied Pet-x store customers.
Julie E: Very helpful and friendly to work with
Liah Bruckner: I was truly blown away by this place! The fish are diverse and seem happy and well taken care of. Every person working was cleaning a tank or feeding a creature while I was there. It ended up walking around and looking at everything for a while before buying any fish. The place was welcoming and the people working were helpful and friendly. I am looking forward to going back.
Wesley McDonald: Great place to saltwater fish/supply and meet good people. Staff is incredibly knowledgeable amd supportive.
Alexander Squier: Awesome staff who are highly knowledgeable about fish!
Elle Oswald: Live Art has all the fish. I was so busy looking around that I forgot to take photos, but if they don't have it, they get it for you. They carry both freshwater and saltwater fish, from neons to coral starters. I don't even know what most of them are, but the staff is knowledgeable and helpful, so just ask!
Patty Patton: Best aquatic store in independence.Nice knowageble help.Like going there
Andrew Jones: Great staff. Great prices
Daniel Planell: Great service
Michelle Stilwell: Staff is always friendly and helpful. They really know their fish.
Pru Johnson: Love the auctions
Kurt Van Keppel: I just started, with a tiny tank and a couple of guppies. Shelby was extremely patient and helpful, with a great selection. I’ll be back soon for those shrimp!
Rachel Silkwood: I love coming here because the staff is very welcoming and friendly. Although, lately I feel like the selection has dramatically gotten worse. I used to come here and get beautiful guppies and have a big selection and last time I went there wasn't really much to pick from. A lot of fish are store tanks only.. so those fish aren't for sale. I just feel like with a better selection I would want to come more frequently...
jennifer cornett: Always has what we need there.

Catriona Apps: If you're in independence and need a pet store go here. The PetCo on Noland is subpar comparatively, they're always out of supplies, where as if you go to this PetSmart they will most likely have the supplies you need, if they don't they will get them in later that week
Bit Milligan: Nice cashier
Joy Larsen: Got what we needed with some help of an employee! She knew her stuff and was the cash register person and said someone would put it in our car for us, and she did that too! Many thanks! Very well known and strong, too!
Dippity Doo: Took my girl...this is what SHE wants to say ~~HI I'M PEPPER!! Me, being an adult dog, I tried to keep my cool, cause after all, I'm not a puppy! First thing...When I stepped out of the car sure enough...I couldn't believe my nose!!! then, had to squat!The see through doors opened like magic!When I walked in...omagosh!! the SMELLS!!extremely excited... immediately my nose took to the floor! Every toy, bone, antler, chewie, ball, every corner marked territory by others before me, then I ofcourse marked my own little spots just to be fair! Mom said they were nice enough to leave cleaning supplies all over just for our messes sorry!We miss my Twitchy so mom stopped to look at the cats up for adoption it was really sad, they all looked lonely, we couldn't go in the room mom didn't want to startle them...ONward with the hunt! We walked through so many aisles, looked at steps for my short legs, I got to smell all kinds of bones, chewies, clothes, toys, tried on a funny hat I didn't like so much then looked at birds and fish!! Even annoying crickets live there.It was so much fun to explore but then I saw a hooman with a white coat, they call a vet, he looked scary and I was glad I didn't have to visit him!We got me a new car seat and stuff I needed for my itchy skin and probiotics for my tummyMom says she gives 5 stars NOT ME...I'm giving 2 cause :I ⭐got to pee2⭐⭐ for my favorite duck treatsThanks!
Sean Postpichal: I recently visited Petsmart for some turtle food. Not really knowing what isle it was in, I asked a store associate whose name is Jennifer from Colombia. She was very helpful in leading me in the right direction. Her big smile made my trip to Petsmart well worth it. Thanks Jennifer for being a bright light to those you come in contact with.
Karlie Johnson: Great
Clifton Printy: Dog likes it. Kids like it. Gecko likes their lizards.
Warnee Venyard: Great staff that work this store. Everyone is friendly, helpful
Jessica Elena Dorta: It’s really nice inside very big store and has a lot of fish some Guinea pigs and birds. I later found that they have some cats in the store they were really cute. I gave 4 stars because they didn’t have snakes or more options. The employees were very friendly however they needs more pets. Supplies yes they have a lot of pet supplies and cute clothing even for st Patrick’s day superb!
Nora Moran: I have been shopping there for years and I think it's a wonderful price.
Tammy Spader: The staff are so friendly and I love that you can take your fur baby in the store with you.
Carmen Alicia Perales: Great my ex used all my points
Steven Hougland: Friendly and helpful
Marjorie Moore: The employees were very helpful in finding what we needed/wanted, they gave good recommendations and even some online recommendations if what they had in store wasn't to our liking. Very satisfied with the selection and different brands available.
Nancy Weigman: Took my dog CJ to get groomed, was told to trim tail if needed, they completely shaved it. The same person has done her the last few times and she had done a wonderful job. This time it was horrible. She not trim her do claws. Had to trim the hair around her face and mouth

Pet-Topia: what do users think?
Annaliese Willis: My partner and I have been exclusively shopping for pet supplies from Pet-Topia for a bit over 2 years now. When we first got our fur baby as a kitten two years ago we knew we wanted to give her the best an healthiest life we could, for us that started with her diet. I’ve heard night mares about certain pet food brands and the health issues linked to them and stores like Petco and Petsmart sold those brands along with a few ok and good ones based off of the research we had done. No employee at either of the stores previously mentioned could give us any suggestions on what food to start our cat on. We felt so frustrated that such major chains couldn’t provide a simple recommendation. We found Pet-Topia on accident just driving by it and I’m so glad we did. All the employees that we have interacted with have not only been friendly and kind every time we’ve come in but they also know their stuff. They were easily able to give us recommendations for food and every brand they carry is trustworthy and great for your animal. Our cat has never had a problem with the food they’ve recommended us and two years later she is as healthy as a 2 year old cat can be. We are also the owners of a boa constrictor and we love that we can pick up both of our animals food at once. While they don’t have a lot of products for snakes the rats they carry are awesome in our experience and our girl loved them. If you need a pet store to go to in the northland area of KC, I would only shop here.
Derrick Heath: Great store and staff, little smaller than some other stores but they do have a great salt water aquarium section with corals etc.
James Ring: Good prices
Angela M: Anytime I go in here is great! People are very friendly, they have a Raw Bar for dogs now which my pit loves and they always throw something in your bag extra to help show you maybe a cheaper yet just as clean version of something similar to save you money or just a treat for your furbabies.
CT Service: Love this place customer service is excellent! Great products at a great price. I would recommend to anyone
Deana W: Pet-Topia has an excellent selection of tropical and saltwater fish. I was recently there and was amazed by the different fish they had. The associate told me the store had a low fish stock and would have a new shipment Friday, the next day. The prices are not cheap but are appropriate based on the quality of their fish. I didn't purchase any fish, but did buy a new female pet rat.
Jennifer Valdez: Love this store!! All the employees are incredible, knowledgeable & kind.
Nancy Walker: Always friendly customer service. Well stocked store!
Levi Thomas: Great place to find cool and rare stuff!
Matthew Acker: Store is nice, but the saltwater side needed ALOT of help. Major velvet outbreak, dead fish in tanks, XL Moray Eel in a tiny tank with no hides or anywhere for him to go. Tons of algae build up in frag tanks. Didn't seem to care at all.
Brenda C: Always fantastic service… friendly and helpful! and really great corals and saltwater fish!
Owlandtiger: Awesome
Emily White: I love this place. I was looking for a store that had a good selection of fresh water fish, as well as knowledgeable staff. This is the place! They also have an excellent selection of live plants for your tank. My only complaint as of now is that some of the really cool fish sell out quick!...and that's not really a bad thing :)
Amy Feurer: This place is good priced and very clean!
Steven Jones: I have been an aquarist for over forty years and I have seen it all in the hobby. This shop is the best shop in the four state area from KC, MO. north until Minnesota. I know there’s heated competition on the Kansas line so I’ll speak on what I do know. Walking into his shop recently to pick up a custom tank from Planet Aquariums I was floored by how nice his aquatics section was. We have to support our local shops at all cost. They are the lifeblood of the hobby. Petopia’s effort in maintaining an incredible looking shop has to be commended. To speak about the one star reviews I have to comment. In most if not all cases it was a lack of knowledge before they entered the store. Know the fish you’re buying and signs of disease before you go home and rip the shop. No shop is perfect and we must take a step back before complaining. I hope my hobby relationship with Petopia last for years to come.
Evan Vang: Needs more better bettas,more exotic types
Nerds Corp: I asked an older gentleman that worked there about the hill stream loaches that I had seen a Facebook post about and he got really upset and frustrated about me asking a simple question he said some rude remarks and told me “you young people know nothing about fish” and goes on to say something about a waiting list that doesn’t get followed and how people don’t realize how big some fish get and bring them back. After all this I will not be coming back and I’m going to recommend people to stay away.
L R FAMILY: They are very friendly and helpful. A great ran business with a large variety.of pets and pet supplies.
Rachel Silkwood: By far one of my favorite places for fish! I signed up for the rewards and I also get text kessage updates on new arrivals and daily sales. The selection is always broad for freshwater and salt water fish. I'm patiently waiting for them to get upside down catfish again! All of the fish I have got here have been healthy and lively. Aside from the time I got some khuli loaches. They happened to pass away a day later.. assuming from a parasite; they spazed out and then died.. but, definitely recommend this shop to anyone in the aquatic hobby!
Linda Hill: I love this place!!!!
Christopher Butcher: The ONLY pet store we will go to. Very friendly, very knowledgeable and usually always have exactly what we need. Thank you all!! We LOVE Pet-Topia!!

Custom Aquariums by Design Inc: what do users think?
Cassi Verhelle: Not even 2 days after adding the fish to my tank, it has red bumps with white strings hanging from it. Come to find out, it was infected with hookworms and now my other fish (that I've had for more than 2 years with no problems) are infected. I called them and they said there's nothing they will do because I can't prove it came from the fish I got from them.
Brad Graves: Some cool stuff there.
lambo200530: Good fish selection
Joe Lynch: Do not expect the courtesy of having your phone call returned. That's not a bad thing as I found another company that wanted my business.
Kansas Axolotl: A small family-owned business that can provide all your aquarium service needs

Picasso Exotic Aquatics: what do users think?
Trishie Gardens: Plants are dirty and algae filled.Update: these photos were taken a couple months ago prior to the store moving sale. — Google just notified me of posting my review. — I don’t believe I will return. Thanks.
Grace Feng: Wow we were in the store for 25 minutes with no help. 3 people were trying to wrangle one fish from a big tank and q barely said hi when we walked in. After 10 minutes of no interaction I asked for help. They said they would be right with us. 15 minutes later still no one. We left very disappointed. Won’t be back.
Deana W: Picasso is a must-visit for all fish enthusiasts! The store is up-scale and carries both fresh and saltwater fish. The store also has axolotls from baby to full-grown. It’s Kansas City’s best aquarium around until the zoo’s aquarium opens.
Danielle Johansen: Really neat place to check out if you are an aquarium hobbiest. I only have freshwater so that's all I really paid attention to, but their selection of aquarium plants is what I like best. It's a decent selection of ludwigias, repens, a few anubias' and ferns, and others, along with a lot of tissue culture plants. They all look good quality and healthy (though they have a bit of algae, but that's too be expected when the lights are on all day for business) and I like that I don't have to worry about them dying in shipping like of I had bought them online. Not sure on the tissue culture plants but the stemmed plants were all a decent price for a good number of stems and there's even a buy three get one free deal. The freshwater fish looked healthy and there was an especially good selection of beautiful healthy Bettas. There neocaridina shrimp were pretty large and vibrant as well, and a bit less then I've seen in some shops. They've got axolotls too! Plenty of juveniles with good coloring and looked pretty healthy. Even if you aren't into the hobby it's worth coming in just to look at the beautiful freshwater setups. 🐠👍
Michael McWilliams: Store looks nice from the outside.. I’ve tried to go in twice now, both time they were closed with no online notices. I wouldn’t care that much if I hadn’t driven nearly 40 minutes both times from my aunts house. I’m visiting from Nebraska and wanted to visit some local fish stores. The first time, on Tuesday they had a sign saying they were closed just for that day. So I came back on Thursday, only to find a new sign saying they are only open on the weekend. Again I wouldn’t care if my drive wasn’t so long.. please update your hours online if you’re going to extend your closure more than a day or two.. thx :)
Jose Rios: High quality pets ! Thanks guys !
Kimberly Large: Highly disappointed considering the website. I have never seen as many sickly, belly sunken in fish in a "high end" store before. Aiptasia was everywhere, fish clearly had ich, and suspected several have flukes. Corals were nothing special and hard to see considering they're housed in a hot tub. Aiptasia was all over in the coral tank as well. The sad quality of the fish being sold will ensure that I will never return.
Ray Sparks: Very nice store visually. . Just very expensive and unfriendly staff. Not one person acknowledged us when we walked in.
Steven Halgren: Busy, but good selection
Dre Kuz: Store said it was open at 12, when I got there it was closed at 12:05. Wasted my time and drive
Ngoc Tran: My favorite high tech fish store in kansas :) love my ada 60p. I’ve always done a low tech set up as I didn’t understand how to inject co2. Thank you Johnny for helping me learn to use the regulator I’m having alot of fun with this new toy for my aquascaping 😊
Amy Shepard: Says they open at 11 but nobody is here and the door is Iocked. Called them and no answer. I drove 30 minutes and got here 20 minutes early. Waited for them to open and nothing. Now there’s multiple people waiting outside their door. I hope they don’t make a habit of doing business like this.
Gowri Shankar: Their are salt water and fresh water fishes here
jaxx fxy: Probably the best fish store in the whole area! Their selection is the best and most diverse i have seen and their fish are well looked after!
Megan Adkins: Absolutely amazing! Gorgeous set ups and really knowledgeable staff. It's pricey, but understandably so.Minus 1 star because it was busy and only two people were working and trying to help everyone (but both employees were very helpful and kind!)
Will Henry: An extremely well kept store, with knowledgeable and polite staff!
Hailey Troxel: Amazing tank setups and fish selection
justin proctor: One of the best aquariums! Definitely go there and check it out even if you don’t plan to buy, it is worth it
Monica F: Nice variety of fish and very helpful staff.
Renee Chandra: A very unique place to go!! It's like a live gallery.
Paula Christman: Very nice place.very friendly and hopeful. Not many fish!
