Live Fish

Of course, you can't have an aquarium without any fish—and a few finned friends are the perfect addition to your home. It is best to purchase fish at your local fish store, so that you can see the fish before you buy them and make sure they are in good health. Petco is an excellent choice if you're looking for new pets, since we have locations across the country offering dozens of kinds of colorful live fish. Whether you're looking for a single fish or an entire school, we carry a wide variety of pets you can add to your family.

Beautiful Bettas

Our selection of bettas is one of the largest you'll find anywhere. These beautiful little fish are famous for their bright colors and intricate fins, but they are also an excellent choice for beginning pet parents since they require very little space and maintenance.

Freshwater Pets

If you're looking for other colorful freshwater aquarium fish, we have a wide range of other creatures that make excellent additions to your tank. Some of the many species we have available include:

Some of these fish do well in larger schools, while others should be kept in smaller groups. We'll be able to help you find the right mix of fish for your aquarium.

Saltwater Fish

More experienced aquarium keepers might want to try their hand with a saltwater aquarium. Petco is unique among pet store chains in that we carry a wide variety of saltwater options in addition to our freshwater ones. Our stores have many different types of saltwater aquarium fish, including:

Invertebrates and Other Creatures

Live Plants

A live aquarium plant is one of the most popular items to add to a tank, and we have a great selection of plants. Not only do they help filter the water in the tank, they also offer a highly naturalistic environment for your pets to live in. We offer a range of plant species as well as substrate, fertilizers, lighting and everything else you need to keep your plants healthy.

Aquacultured Corals

If you're looking for something a little more exotic than a plant, live corals are an excellent option. We carry a range of corals that are great for beginning and expert aquarium keepers in a variety of shapes and sizes. All of our corals are 100% aquacultured.

At Petco, we are strongly committed to protecting marine life, which is why we sell aquacultured organisms. These are creatures that have been raised in aquarium environments instead of being collected from the wild. Over 95% of our aquatic life, including all of our coral and most of our live fish, is raised in captivity, allowing you to enjoy your fish tank without having to worry about impacts on the environment.

Supplies and Equipment

We also offer a wide range of aquarium supplies so that you'll have everything you need to keep your fish happy and healthy. Our equipment and materials include medications, supplements and a wide range of foods. You can also pick up all the water treatment supplies you need, such as algaecides, water conditioners and even salt mixtures for brackish and marine tanks.

Accessories

Make your tank look great! We offer tank backgrounds and a variety of gravels and substrates that can provide a cohesive look in addition to a wide variety of tank décor. Whether you want to create a sunken ship or Asian landscape, we have the ornaments you need.

Hard-to-Find Items

If you're looking for something that isn't available at your local Blue Springs Petco location, we have endless aisles online featuring every product that our chain has to offer. We have literally thousands of items that can help pet parents keep their aquariums running smoothly, whether you have a 50-gallon tank or a small betta bowl. Even if we don't have what you want, we can help you find it. For items that aren't commonly carried in our stores, our store partners can place special orders online to help you find what you're looking for.

Yes. Petco locations throughout the U.S. offer live fish, from bettas and tetras to mollies and zebra fish.

Petco does accept unwanted fish. If you have a healthy freshwater fish you can no longer care for, you can bring it to your local Petco for donation. It is wise to call ahead to check if that location is able to accept a fish donation at that time, as they may have limited space available for donated fish. Before you choose to adopt a fish or group of fish, make sure you know everything involved so you are fully prepared to care for your pets. If you are unsure whether a fish is the right pet for you, take a look at our Freshwater Aquarium Guide Link Opens in New Tab for tips and insights.
Petco guarantees returns of freshwater aquatic life inside a designated time frame. For 30 days, you can receive a full refund for freshwater fish purchased in our Pet Care Centers. All fish should have a properly established habitat; a receipt is required, and we recommend providing a water sample with your return. By testing your water, we can help check if your tank is ready for another fish, or if it may need some work to prepare it for a new fish.

Due to the more delicate nature of saltwater aquatic life, we do not offer a guarantee. If you have questions about returning aquatic life or other purchases to Petco, please see our Easy Returns Link Opens in New Tab guide.

Customer service

I would just like to say I am completely unsatisfied with the customer service I received from Belle. She was so rude and seemed like she didn’t enjoy her job at all.

Shadowgentry2023-02-26

Grooming

I scheduled an appointment to get my dog groomed and they called to rescheduled my appointment twice in two days. They said that this was something that happens depending on the situations of other appointments. I will never go back to them for any of my dogs needs. The manager was unhelpful as well.

Great Cat Adoption Experience!

Kerri was an awesome customer service associate who helped us with adopting a cat. She was extremely friendly and helpful. The store was busy and short staffed, but Kerri made sure to help everyone in line including myself. She even did it all with a great attitude!

Condescending or awol cashiers

Ive worked in retail/customer service all of my career, so I always make a point to be patient and understanding with cashiers and employees in the floor. Every time Ive gone into this store, there’s either no one to be found, or the cashier is visibly annoyed that she has to check me out. Im a pretty easy going person, but Ive left this store feeling angry and insulted, which is kind of absurd given that I was just buying dog food. Plenty of other places to buy dog food and reward with my business. The store is too physically small and not high volume enough to justify cashiers being that absent or rude.

Total disappointment with Store

Unfortunately the store was in disarray and was out of many many products. The reptile, fish, bird and rodent area was was so cluttered with stuff everywhere on the floor it was hard to get around Plus the floor around the fish tanks was wet and slick but no signs were up to warn the floor was wet. The products we went into purchase for our amphibian tank most of was out of stock and the personnel that we finally located really didn't seem to know much about what was going on. Extremely disappointed in the store and the employees when we were there, I believe we'll be going to PetSmart to purchase any items we need from now on. We certainly aren't able to get them at this Petco store.

Not a fan.

Stuff was mixed together and sale signs are not clear. Even when they see for themselves they don't honor what they have displayed. Very frustrating.

Sara20192022-06-12

Customer service

From the time we walked into the store, until the time an employee, ANY employee spoke to us was 10 min. Multiple employees walking around with their Petco shirts and name tags, yet not one said hello, May I help you, or let me get a groomer for you. We were there for grooming service. Once the very mature women came to the desk, it was only worse from there. She was rude, condescending and couldn’t have acted more irritated that we were there. We go to this location because it’s close to home and convenient. We will now drive out of our way to go ANYWHERE but Petco in the future.

Will never shop at any petco ever again

At check out register declined my debit card twice, so I paid cash. When I got to my car, I called my bank and they told me it paid. I looked at my bank statement and it did charge to my account. I took bank statement and receipt right back into sore and manager told me she could not refund me and told me to call corporate. I did, from my car again, and corporate said to go back in and they would have mana h er refund one of the payments. Event hough cashier who checked us out validated my claim, manager still refused to refund me. She told me to file a dispute with my bank to attempt to get my money back. So I paid for my purchases twice with no satisfaction that management made any effort to correct their error. I will drive 20 miles out of my way before I will ever step in any petco again.

Delivery mistake corrected by assist manager Tks

I purchased two boxes of Arm and Hammer Slide dust Free Litter, 38lb each on sale. We love this litter and try to have delivered as we are seniors and have a hard time getting it at stores as we can not lift heavy items. Thanks, Petco for having delivery available and carrying this litter for cats.

Condescending Cashier

I came into the Blue Springs, MO Petco on September 8th. As I was looking at the pet costumes near the front, a cashier was patiently waiting for me. Then upon finishing my selection, I turned around the cashier was now nowhere to be seen. Once the cashier Addisyn returned. She scanned my items so quickly and too fast that I only got to ask her one question about my many items. When I wanted to make sure the price for a particular cat scratcher was correct because there was only one price tag for the multiple scratches they had back there. She didn’t ask if I wanted a bag for my cat food which was very annoying to grab with the awkward shape cat scratcher couch. Then when I noticed the total seemed a little a high a noticed that the one item I came in for was still marked at its original price and not on sale. Upon returning back into the store I spoke with the same cashier Addisyn and she talked to me like I was stupid and didn’t know about the price matching of the app. If she would’ve gave me time as a customer to ask another question, instead of getting annoyed about me asking for cat conditioner. Then I wouldn’t have been so rude back to her saying well I would like a price match cause I’m Not paying $30 for something that is $20.24. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this cashier have more training on customer service and treat everyone with respect, no matter the age.
