Concerning place I can see a mess with live animals and fish inside but no one to be found at 2pm on a Monday. What is happening here?

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Aleksandra Olszewski · Jul 2022

This place is literally horrific. I’ve never seen animals in such bad condition. This place needs to be shutdown. There was a bearded dragon so dehydrated it’s eyes were swollen shut. The poor birds were sitting in several layers of there own feces and there beaks were so overgrown one of them broke. Something must be dead in side somewhere because there was a tremendous amount of flies in there. In one of the small tanks when you first walk in there was a snake that has been dead so long it looks to be mummified. This isn’t something that happens overnight. This is months upon months of neglect, if not years. The store came recommended on Facebook and I was excited to see it. Couldn’t have been further from my expectations. Please call the town on this place and get the animals the help

A knowledgeable owner that cares about his animals. I saw previous reviews that said there's dead animals, and that wasn't true from my experience. I didn't see a single dead fish, and I kept looking at the rodent cages and they were all clearly alive. The place could certainly be cleaner, but it's a pet shop and a small business that I will try to support over big chains. The prices were the same or better too. Overall pleased with my experience.

★★★★★ 5.0 Anthony Perry · Aug 2019

It is pretty messy in the shop, but the fish are nice fish. The owner knows a lot about fish and is very nice to talk to. *UPDATE* I just went in yesterday and the store has been cleaned up a lot!! A really nice selection of healthy looking fish, lizards, and mice. There are NO dead mice in the cages. They even sell live food cultures! I would highly recommend you going in. The only problem is a ell, but that is too be expected in a store with fish lizards and mice.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Lindsay Saylors · Apr 2021

We wanted to support local and check out snails and tails to grow our aquarium. I was nervous that we would have similar experiences as other reviewers and that proved to be true. We arrived around 2pm on Sunday (hours listed as open until 5pm), and they were closed. I guess it would be nice to know what practiced hours are so we can plan accordingly. Snails and Tails comes highly recommended on community pages, unfortunately, it seems it’s hit or miss whether they’re honoring their posted hours.
