While larger national chains often dominate the pet store market, Reef Life Aquariums has carved out a niche by focusing exclusively on aquatics. Customers will find weekly shipments of freshwater and saltwater fish, live aquatic plants and corals. Inventory updates are posted regularly online, including a “just out of holding” category that alerts customers when new arrivals are ready for purchase.
The store also carries a range of aquarium sizes and accessories including lighting systems, water testing supplies and filtration equipment. A recent tank clearance promotion featured steep discounts on brands such as Aqueon, with options ranging from 15-65 gallon tanks and matching cabinetry.
Reef Life Aquariums also serves as a source of advice and supplies for water chemistry, tank cycling and equipment setup — common stumbling blocks for new aquarium owners.
Located in Shelby County, the business draws a steady stream of visitors from nearby neighborhoods like Greystone, Inverness and Highland Lakes. In addition to its retail services, Reef Life Aquariums offers gift cards and a subscription system for email updates on fish availability.
