I absolutely LOVE this place, and Scott is phenomenal! My friend and I both have started with aquariums over the past year, and this place is a GEM find! Scott is very knowledgeable and helpful - he got me started with a 10 gallon tank for my office at work and suggested exactly the right fish for it through the cycling process. I went back to get 3 more fish plus 2 catfish, and all 8 are doing very well! From there he suggested I come back in a few weeks to get 3 of the HY511 Tetras (I think thats what theyre called), which I plan to do today! Also, Im starting a 27 gallon aquarium at home, and plan to get my fish from Scott next week. VERY exciting and wonderful hobby . . . and an excellent resource in Oak Park Natural Pet & Fish! Love it!

Their selection of grain free dog food and their location is what keeps me coming back. However, their customer service is poor enough that Ive nearly walked out twice. Twice Ive been standing at the register with my purchase, waiting for someone, anyone, to acknowledge me. This big guy had the audacity to finish his conversation with a co-worker before he finally walked over and rang up my sale (he was seriously having a long monologue about drinking a soda--very pressing stuff!). To the owner of this store, please emphasize to your employees that customer service matters. Acknowledge your customers and tell them youll be right with them. It makes a difference.

I LOVE THIS PLACE!! They have such great deals and CARRY ONLY HEALTHY foods for my family members (my pets) and by that I mean NONE of that CHEAP CANCER CAUSING DOG FOOD which tells YOU they KNOW THEIR STUFF. The staff are ALWAYS so helpful. I buy my fish from here as well because like I said THEY KNOW THEIR STUFF AND ONLY SELL TOP QUALITY HEALTHY FISH. We bought our red- bellied piranhas from here as well and always our dog related products such as their food, chicken and duck feet, elk antlers, and much more. I RECOMMEND this place to EVERYONE because they have such a variety of HEALTHY pet products.

Very little knowledge about the age or history of fish and only a 1day garuntee wasted 17 dollars on what i thought was a health fish .And customer service not to great maybe he was intimidaited by a positive succesful black man i was accompanied by one of my business associates and the gentlemen appeared to be kind of rude .but im frequently in that area however i would prefer a bigger chain store like petco or petsmart,one bad experience is enough for me . The employee was there on May 28 but not much help .never visit again maybe they have white only fishies

I wanted to give 4 1/2 stars but closer to 5 so...They are pretty nice. Big dude is somewhat abrasive but tall coral guy is very cool and knowledgable. Also dude who answers phone is honest and down to earth. I like the substantial amt you get especially for corals. When they are on sale especially 31$ is good price for big hunk of coral

So many dead fish in tanks and most seemed over crowded this past week. Sad to see Petco down the street have less dead fish being eaten by other fish. I went thinking they were a specialty shop. I walked out without purchasing or having any employee even bother asking me if they can help me find anything.

What a super place to get quality pet supplies! The staff is friendly & knowledgeable. Proves that if you shop locally where the owner has an investment in the community, you get a better product, better service. My dog says THANKS FOR THOSE HEALTHY PUPPY CHEWS AND STURDY TOY. GO BACK, MOM!

Awsome !!! I had an emergency and could not leave the house due illness, these people delivered my pet food within hours, no extra charge. I cant believe nowadays a place that has this service free of charge for their customers. Thank you so much, you guys are the BEST !!!

Every time me and my brother go to Oak Park Natural Pet & Fish there is always something new that catches your eye. Also if you want them to have the specific fish you want, all you have to do is tell them, thelltake your name and number,and call you when they have it.

Owner stated return policy and then did not honor it. Always been super friendly in past, so was extremely liberal in my trust. Mistake. Might as well buy at cheaper prices online than frequent small business if this is the treatment you receive.

Great selection of food for both cats and dogs .if you are into naturall foods you can get fresh Natural Foods dried or even Frozen. for cats and dogs. some toys plenty of treats. also theyre really known for their fish and aquarium expertise.

Caryn Caldarulo

This is a place that you can go where the people working there are extremely knowledgeable and you always walk out knowing that you have the best product for your situation and the highest quality standards for your pets. Love this place

Chris Bendsen

Best selection of both freshwater and marine fish (and other aquatic critters) that I have seen in years. Crystal clear tanks and healthy fish. Gorgeous aquarium behind the front counter with a great display of African cichlids.

Richard Trama

Extremely helpful and friendly guys. Tanks are always full of healthy and vibrant fish. Nice selection of marine and fresh water fish. Best source for aquarium supplies and fish food. I drive here from Michigan twice a year.

Always a great place. Usually work with Vic and Eric. Both knowledgeable and never pushing to just sell products you dont really need. Take their time to explain proper care of the fish. Great experience.

Jose Pazo

I love this place! Great friendly staff with an abundant amount of knowledge. The quality and health of their fish is subpar! If you want to save some money wait for their 20% off all fish. Shop local!!

Justin Macariola

This is a good place to get service. I get great advice from the employees that have saved A LOT of my fish! The atmosphere isnt very appealing but it is still a great place to come to!

Katrina Spears

By far my favorite place to get things for my dogs. The prices are competitive. the staff is knowledgeable and they get to know you. They literally make an effort to get to know you

daneel mcdaniel

Overall excellent experience! The staff was helpful and assisted my family in selecting an aquiarium and everything that goes along with it! :) We will be going back frequently!

Because I was looking for some puffer fish and they did not have any and then I waited a week later and they had puffer fish and everything else I need it

Decent prices, good selection. I would advise all to do your own homework before buying livestock. Some of the things Ive been told are questionable.
