Founded in 1979, Aquatropics has been the one-stop fish shop for all your aquarium needs for over 40 years. Aquatropics is not only the ultimate destination for all things aquatic, but for all things reptile! Located in the heart of Gainesville Florida, we are true hard-core Gator fans and will feed any Gator haters to Freddy, our fly river turtle. Kidding! He is mostly herbivorous, but does dine on fans of opposing teams.
At Aquatropics, we believe every aquarium is a unique ecosystem and our knowledgeable staff is committed to helping you create the perfect environment for your fish and plants. We offer a wide selection of high quality tanks, equipment, and supplies, along with a diverse array of freshwater and saltwater fish, invertebrates, coral, and plants. On our reptile side, we have all animals that slither, creep, and crawl. From gorgeous tricolor hognose snakes to incredible caiman lizards, we truly have something for everyone!
At Aquatropics, our mission is to inspire and help aquarists and herp hobbyists of all levels while also making our store feel like a second-home within our community. We pride ourselves on our commitment to customer service, education, and sustainability. By sourcing our livestock from responsible breeders and suppliers, we ensure that our practices support the health of natural ecosystems.
So whether you are looking to join our local family or a traveler just stopping through, make sure to mark Aquatropics as a must-see destination. We look forward to meeting you and helping you out with any aquatic or reptile needs!
