Easily the best saltwater aquarium store in Houston and there is a strong argument for being one of the best in the nation. Yes, its that good. Dennis, the owner, is amongst the most knowledge aquarist I know and his hardware inventory ranges from entry-level to professional caliber...and its usually in stock!!! If he doesn't have it, he can get it. Also, his livestock is fantastic. He regularly stocks beautiful (and healthy) corals and inverts, and his fish selection is equally impressive. I've been going there for over 10 years and in the odd cases where I've requested something really unusual, Dennis has not only found it, but usually got it in a short period of time. Can't say enough good things about FJW.

New to the hobby and this was my first stop for a pair of clownfish. They're super healthy and got comfortable in their new home super fast. Store owner is extremely helpful and answered all of my questions. Definitely returning and I do recommend this store for your saltwater needs.

FJW Aquarium sold us a sick blue spotted jawfish that clearly hadn’t been properly quarantined — and never bothered to tell us. That fish infected our entire tank and killed multiple healthy fish we’d had for years. When we went back to return it, they refused to take it back or make things right. No refund, no apology — just complete indifference. As hobbyists, we rely on stores like FJW to do the basic job of selling healthy livestock. Instead, they pushed a diseased fish onto us with zero transparency or accountability. Quarantining at home isn’t realistic for most people, and it’s unacceptable for a store to cut corners like this. They cost us time, money, and beloved fish — and acted like it was no big deal. We’re done. FJW has lost our trust, our respect, and our business permanently. Don’t risk your tank here.

Nice and healthy selection of fish. Dennis has a great store full of products, fish, corals and any cuc you might need. If there’s anything in specific you need just ask, he helped me find some fish I was in search for and got them delivered to his store. Really cute and nice yellow tangs! For those of you that are still in search of those he’s got a bunch of healthy babies.

This place is simply amAzing. The WOW factor is definitely worth the visit regardless if you are a coral enthusiast, or just a spectator and passing through. Staff is very knowledgeable and gives advice and shares his knowledge freely.
