Tips for a Better Visit
Check stock. Confirm availability before driving over, especially for online orders, because one customer found the listed items unavailable.
Find the entrance. Look inside the metro station building and use the Gardens Metro station, street 3, as the landmark.
Plan parking. Allow extra time for parking or consider arriving by metro, since reviewers found parking limited or difficult.
Cycle first. If you are new to aquariums, follow the shop’s staged approach: set up, test the water after a few weeks, then add fish.

The Bottom Line
R&G Aqua LLC is a compact aquarium shop in Discovery Gardens, inside a metro station building. It is a useful stop for aquascaping rather than just a place to pick up fish: customers describe help designing planted aquariums, choosing driftwood, and putting together the essentials for a new tank. The shop also carries cube tanks, accessories and a varied selection of aquatic plants, including Bucephalandras.
The staff are the main reason beginners seem comfortable here. Reviews describe patient explanations about feeding, water temperature, medicines and tank care, while the tanks themselves are often praised as clean, attractive and well maintained. Several customers also mention healthy fish and a good choice of schooling fish, guppies and bettas.
The small space can feel more like a focused browse than a large warehouse, but it is packed with aquascaping ideas. There are a few practical cautions. Parking around the metro location can be difficult, and the shop may be easy to miss if you do not realise it is inside the station building.
Check live stock before travelling for an online order. For live fish, ask about current condition and care before buying; one review reported fungal problems with tetras, while another raised serious concerns about delayed tank-maintenance visits.
