The Good Stuff
Coral selection
The shop is repeatedly praised for its broad, changing range of soft and hard corals, including unusual reef pieces.
Beginner guidance
First-time saltwater keepers say staff explain setups patiently, answer questions and help choose compatible fish and care routines.
Marine equipment
Reviews mention a useful range of aquarium equipment, supplies and accessories alongside the livestock.
Tank service
A customer described the tank-clearing service as fantastic, while another reported two years of ongoing tank maintenance.
Cold packing
For coral transport, one reviewer specifically noted insulated boxes and ice to keep purchases cool on the journey home.
Clean displays
Several reviews describe a clean, well-organized shop with well-maintained tanks and immaculate displays.
Tips for a Better Visit
Ask quarantine. If you are buying marine fish, ask about quarantine; one reviewer says new arrivals are quarantined before release.
Request guidance. Beginners should ask for a full setup explanation and help choosing the right equipment rather than buying blind.
Check transport. If you are taking corals home, ask how they will be packed; a reviewer reported insulated boxes and ice for the trip.
Confirm installation. For installed corals, confirm the requested placement and aftercare or responsibility terms before leaving the shop.
Ask special orders. If you need a particular fish, ask whether it can be ordered rather than limiting yourself to the current tanks.
Try frozen feed. Marine keepers looking for feed can ask about the quality frozen Artemia mentioned by a customer at a reasonable price.

The Bottom Line
Aquarium Planet is a marine-focused aquarium shop in International City where you can browse fish, corals and invertebrates, buy aquarium equipment and supplies, and ask for help setting up a saltwater tank. Reviews consistently point to staff who explain fish compatibility, care and first-time reef systems without rushing beginners. The livestock is the main draw.
Customers describe healthy marine fish, soft and hard corals, and a changing selection of reef pieces; one long-time hobbyist says the shop can order specific fish on request. There is also a tank-clearing service, and another reviewer says the team maintained their tank for two years, including help during emergencies. Frozen Artemia (brine shrimp) is another useful find.
The shop is often described as clean, organized and well maintained, with a friendly, hobby-minded atmosphere that even made a family visit feel like a small marine-life attraction. If you are transporting corals home, ask about insulated boxes and ice. One serious negative review raises a clear caution about coral installation, dead stock after the customer’s holiday, and no refund or aftercare support, so confirm placement and responsibility terms before an installation—especially for a high-value purchase.
