      This store is incredible! The staff is fantastic, educated, and nice! The products in store are affordable, and although I'm not a salt water/koi keeper, the products seem to be unique. The fish have incredible care and even the bettas are kept in nice tanks. The animals are taken care of and that is evident with the health of the reefs, coral, and fish. Overall a fantastic store. If they had fancy goldfish I would buy- but if saltwater is your thing, this is your store! Here's some videos I took

      My favorite aquarium store by far, staff is always friendly and helpful, they know what they're talking about and they have a beautiful selection of fish and corals at fair prices imo. They even helped me make a present for my s/o for our anniversary, a GSP coral in the shape of a heart. I offered a tip but they didn't want it, they just love their job and said making it was fun. If you go, talk to Kyle he knows everything about everything. Every aquarium store should strive to be like Blue Ribbon.

      Polyps haven't all opened yet but it's gonna look great

      Blue Ribbon has a lot to offer! During the summer time you can come to see their koi fish outside along with many variety of pond plants. Inside you have marine and freshwater fish as well as corals and aquatic plants. Staff is also knowledgeable!

      Great place tons of amazing coral and live stock!
      Koi are gorgeous and huge! Great place to go if your new or advanced and most of all they have tons of designer clowns most other places don't carry. I highly recommend this place to everyone!!

      Even though I have a very small Koi pond, it's very hard for me to clean it so having Blue Koi come out to service my pond, has been Awesome. A great job each time!

      During the cleaning process
      Afterwards , clean and clear

      Maybe our timing was off when it came to the saltwater fish livestock however, their corals...amazing. The quality of their corals are amazing compared to the shops that I have around where I live. Their coral further confrims the lfs 5 minutes from my house overprices horribly maintained, bleached, mediocre "corals".

      The folks working there were more than helpful and not pushy at all. I think the best thing was that you were greated and interacted with a smile.

      The frag tanks were nicely organized and honestly extremely well priced for their quality. I only had one not so great hitchhiker from one frag but as usual, any coral from anywhere needs to be dipped anyways. Not their fault!

      Coming from what the lfs' I have around here vs the 90 min drive i had to make to this store, it is more than worth it. I can probably spend hours raving about the quality, pricing, and diversity of their coral but you'll have to go visit yourself and check them out!

      Blue Ribbon Koi sells excellent corals and reef livestock, employees are very knowledgable and spend their time to assist, prices are very reasonable. I've looked at other reef/saltwater fish store in the areas this one is definitely #1.

      Bought this years ago from Blue Ribbon

      I just recently started a saltwater tank and was glad to find this nearby shop that was only 10min away. Amazing selection of products and specimens, all reasonably priced too. Sondra was always helpful and courteous, since I'm brand new at this, I really appreciate her patience and guidance. I only wish they open for longer hours as most days when I get off at 6, they're already closed. Hey how about adjusting your hours to 11am to 7pm?

      This is a fantastic company, so helpful from people in the store to their serviceman who has gone above and beyond to help me with our koa pond that I knew very little about when we bought our home in HH. THANK GOD FOR HIS KNOWLEDGE AND CONCERN AND HELP TO KEEP THE POND RUNNING.
