Seaview Aquarium

A BIG SHOP FULL OF FISH (and other aquatic creatures)
I’ve been coming to Seaview Aquarium for a long time. I actually bought my turtle «Fred» here when he was the size of 50c piece. Now he’s the size of a large dinner plate. Along with 2 tanks, and a whole school of fish… this place loves taking my money :)
I’ve tried many other fish /​aquarium shops in Adelaide but this really is your one stop shop for all fish, turtle, frog and marine plant supplies, they also have a large range of tanks and ponds. It is easily the best aquarium shop in Adelaide.
It does however get a little busy on weekends, so prepare for a wait while you get served, but there is a lot of cool marine displays to look at while you wait. Check out the shark tank very cool, or my Bumblebee Cichlid who now lives in the large Cichlid tank out back, he got way to big for my 6 ft tank and started picking on all the others. :(
Prices are reasonable, and the staff are usually friendly… If you love spending endless amounts of cash on your marine critters, then this is the place to go. :)

Out of all the aquarium shops in Adelaide that I’ve visited (and I think I’ve been to them all by now) this would be my first stop if I could only go to one. Without a shadow of a doubt they have the biggest range of fish, and by far the deepest range of exotic species. There are shops that have cheaper fish, bigger fish, rarer fish, harder to find plants, or a bigger range of cichlids, or marine exotics — but for all round range, Seaview has it hands down.
It’s also a huge store — lots of tanks to choose from, accessories, pumps, decorations, rocks & logs — you name it, it’s here. Again, there ARE bigger stores — but the range here has everything I could think of needing all contained in one store.
Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. It can get busy, and I’ve stood in a frustratingly slow queue on a Saturday — but that’s understandable given they need to communicate with a lot of customers over the suitability of fish for their needs, that they understand the care needed for certain species, etc.
Parking is best off the Anzac Highway — I’ve seen far too many wing mirrors whipped off cars parked here while people shop for fish.
