Would never shop anywhere else! 12/10/2011

We bought an aquarium from NorthSide Aquatics for our son 2 years ago for Christmas. We did a good deal of looking around for aquariums before deciding to buy form NorthSide. We would like to share why we chose them and why we keep coming back. In this day and age customer service is almost non-existent. You show up at a store, you usually have to chase people down to get help, and then they know nothing about what you are asking - or they make up something to make themselves sound like they know what they are talking about. This is what happened when we went to several big chain stores. When we got to NorthSide, we stayed for a very long time - first, because the store is truly amazing and took our breath away - it was like visiting a public aquarium. Second, we had tons of questions - freshwater, saltwater, tank size, what kind of filter, etc. We were total newbies and it showed. It is a bit nerve wracking when you are planning on buying something that you know very little about. That puts you at a true disadvantage. But not to worry at NorthSide. They really take the time to find out exactly what you want and then they will find the right equipment for you. We were there in the store so long that we insisted that the staff help other customers, so we ended up dealing with several sales people. Every last one of them was like a human encyclopedia. We were very pleased with the fact that it didn't matter who helped us, because they all were so good. We ended up getting a 75 gallon reef tank and had them come and set it up. What a great investment! They did an outstanding job at getting it set up, and even better than that, they EXPLAINED what they were doing so that we understood how it worked when they left. We thought that they did such a good job that we decided to let them maintenance the tank once a month and that is also a great service. We buy all of our supplies there because they tell us exactly what we need and they know us and our tank. It is rare when you walk into a place and they can remember you. We are always greeted with a smile and by name when we shop. It is obvious that they care a great deal about their customers. NorthSide Aquatics understands that they are in the service business and are not just there to peddle fish. That is why we will never shop anywhere else - and neither should you! more

Go here if you want to learn about your aquarium 6/27/2011

I went to NorthSide Aquatics for the first time several weeks ago after having moved to Maumelle from Searcy. The one thing that I have to say is that I really learned about my aquarium for the first time when i visited here. Our local store in Searcy just had overpriced equipment (sometimes as much as 3 times as high!) and employees that would just sell you whatever you wanted. NorthSide, on the other hand, had very reasonably priced equipment, and they took time to educate me about what would and what would not be a good idea to put in my aquarium. They made it clear that they weren't selling fish just to sell fish - they actually cared about the fish after they left the store. I have found out that going to larger chain pet stores really didn't do me any good because I got a good deal on a tank that I thought would be a way to save money, but it turns out that the equipment that I got (after having read about it online) wasn't very good and wasn't very well-suited to what I was trying to do (a reef tank). My aquarium has always given me problems,no matter what I tried, and I am finding out now that I had all the wrong stuff - so it is no surprise. NorthSide is helping me to swap out for equipment that will do the job much better. What gets me is that there wasn't that much difference in the price of the wrong equipment I got in the ""deal"" from the big pet store and the right equipment I am getting from NorthSide. I have to say that I am so impressed. After having swapped out a few things, and having waited for a couple of months, things are really looking spectacular! I am also changing over to the line of additives and the salt that they recommend. Why didn't I go here first????? If you are reading this and it is far to drive like it was for me - drive there anyway and let them help you. Don't end up like me having to buy stuff twice. Pass on that aquarium ""deal"" at the big pet store. It will save you money in the long run. more
