I've been shopping here for over 30 years. This place hasn't changed a bit. For quality products I come here for all my aquarium needs. The service is pretty good and the staff for very knowledgeable. It's always fun seeing what's up with the fish. Unfortunately having a hobby is not cheap and most of the items here come at a premium price. The biggest issue I have with this location is the parking. It took me 15 minutes circling the parking lot to find a single spot.

Really wanted to like this place. Local store & great selection of products. We showed up an hour before close looking to get started with a setup for a betta fish. There were 4 employees in the store, plus the two owners. 3 employees stood nearby in a group, speaking and ignoring us (see pic). Another was by the fish sorting some products. The owners stood behind the counter and watched myself and 2 other potential customers leave the store empty handed. Disappointing. Ended up going to Pet Smart the next day at the same time. We immediately had two employees helping us and were much happier with the service/acknowledgement of existence.

Great store with great prices This store has been in this same location for close to 30 years if not longer. I remember coming in to see the Shark in the big tank at the back as a child. Highly recommended

The staff are very knowledgeable. Big al has everything you need to start your own aquarium. Bought a betta fish and the staff had a lot of knowledge regarding the care for it, which I appreciate as I've never really owned a fish before. I'll be back to get those piranhas

I live in Vancouver, but visit Toronto regularly. Everytime I'm in Toronto I stop in at this Big Al's and look around. The staff are always friendly and helpful. The fish and plants also look very healthy.
