When I first started keeping fish, boy close to forty years ago, most aquarium stores were like this. How I miss them. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

Yes, my local LFS looked like this. I think it was about 35 years ago when I got my first fish when I was about 8 years old. I think I brought it home on my BMX 🤣

Dean needs his own show where he just overhauls fish rooms/stores🤣

This was the one and only aquarium store I visited on my visit to the west coast (I live in the netherlands) and I loved it! The owner was great and After I told him I could not buy anything he still showed me around and was a great host. Loved it!

Hi Dean. Justin has been my friend for over 25 years from when i had stores. You and Corey really help him out with the visits. He is truly appreciative. Absolutely the best people. Thanks for helping my friends.

First time I stepped in to this store must have been 1991, yes 30 years ago! I was there all the time back then and witnessed when Ady went through her pregnancy, had the baby girl, and then in the blink of an eye the baby girl was a teenager. Also had that little dog that followed me around the store. Haven't been in the store for at least 15 years though, glad to see they're still there.

Anyone else just super jealous of Tazawa's silver locks? Man I wish my hair would've just started turning silver instead of thinning by my 20s..... anyways, ignore this, back to the fish! Dean has never seen sunspots?!?!?!? I can send him about a dozen in 6 months.

Good on ya for bringing up the courteousness of wearing masks. I love close-ish to this store (across a bridge or two) and keep wanting to make the trip. I think I actually missed you by a couple of hours at the Academy of Sciences a couple of weeks ago!

Idk if ppl know this but being vaccinated does not mean u can’t catch or spread Covid. It helps u stay symptom free n helps u fight the sickness. But on to a lighter note great video. Those planted tanks look amazing

I think we are lucky this wasn't more like the Spanish flu ..can you imagine what the toll would have been if people had been as misinformed/confused (and behaved as poorly as some) during covid?

This is my favourite store people could learn from this couple

This store is a hot mess, but boy do those fish look healthy!! Nice video

Such a legendary Shop haha almost looks like another world

It's an incredibly place! Justin and Ady taught me how to set up my tanks with only a gravel substrate for better filtration, 3 1/2" in the front and 5" in the back of the tank and lots of plants. I was skeptical at first but also followed their advice of no water changes, just topping off. It works...good water quality and healthy fish! I love their lush, DIY fish tanks. This is the only place where I buy my fish, plants and supplies! They quarantine their fish. YES! I bought some of the Venezuelan cordoras!

This is that place that has bottles of like gatorade and misc bottles upside down on the side of the tanks where the owner refills it manually everyday with a tank. Super cool. If I ever go to SF I'm totally stopping by

He always comes back to this place.

Fish stores are like Chinese food restaurants. The least flashiest store is the best store

Great video miss seeing those kinds of stores they remind me of my childhood. Your take on mask is spot on. To hear you say it's to be mindful of others that the kind of thinking society is missing. 👍

I live a few hours north of the bay. I drop $ 500 every time I stop by that store.

lmao. thats cause its very overpriced, but I like to spend a bit too to help keep them running. Rent in the middle of the city off Van Ness aint too cheap

Woooooo Hooooo we get to go to oceans aquarium with Dean and Zenzo❤️ What a way to start the day!! Thank you for bringing us along!!🙏🌿🤗🌿💚

When a fish shop has proper tanks and planted tanks you know they and their customers care deeply about their animals

It's been 2 years but, this video just popped back up on my feed today. Boy do I miss my almost monthly visits to Ocean Aquarium in San Francisco. Such a great shop and super nice folks, easily one of the must see shops to see in the country. I need to plan another trip there with big "Z" of Tazawa Tanks.

Dean said like a kid in a candy store. I can agree 100% . When I am in Jacksonville NC there's this store called (The Fish Cave) amazing mom & pop store been there for years. I just love places like this. Thank you so much for sharing this content 👍👍

This has got to be one of my favorite videos I've seen in a long time. Such great energy....Thank you for sharing this majestic place with us.

His bettas are so lively

"I use 'stuff' loosely" Perfect application for it.

After an eleven hour shift this video really hit the spot. Two really knowledgeable fish keepers in a super cool store, it doesn’t get any better.

Thanks so much for being a great respectful fish keeper 👍🏽

That was so much fun. I love seeing how excited you both are.

A very commendable approach to safety and your community Zenzo, keep up the good work 💪

Thank you for providing a great example of respect for the mask issue that shouldn't be an issue.

I love you guys together in videos! And what a fun tour. I love places like that are unique and full of visuals. The amount of plants they have make me smile too.

The shop looks so run down and this is the kind of store I want to buy all my fish from. I go to a shop like this in my town. Always the best experiences

That fish store has a such nice aura about it

I am in love with this store, life!!!

Who else is planning an aquarium store tour when this pandemic is over? ❤️🐠

I'm in Ontario, Canada, we're in a "stay-at-home" order for 6 weeks. Then I suspect the Canada/US boarder will continue to be closed for non-essential travel. As much as I love my aquariuma hobby it's not essential. A fish tour is something to look forward to!

Hi Zenzo. Don’t know if you will see this note so long after posting this video, but I hope so. All of the tanks had a deep layer of gravel. My first thought was they all have undergravel filters, not then I realized they didn’t have the bubbler towers. The fish & plants were clearly very healthy. Did you or Dean ever learn why the gravel layers were so deep?

We used under gravel filters when I was a kid in the 80’s in our meta frame tank!

Beautiful looking tanks! Thank you for this wonderful video!

A cool store with A lot of gear and Fish. Thanks for the tour Zenzo

I've seen this video many times and i never got tired...your audio is fine bro...great video

Brillianteeee! And inspirational!! ❤️❤️

Awesome fish store tour! It reminded me a little of some of the stores that Ryo Watanabe has toured. Thanks for bringing this to us. Stay safe!

Awesome video. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice old store. Very nice video. Beautiful. Thanks.

I cannot believe I still haven’t been to Ocean Aquarium. Time for a road trip soon! Thanks Zenzo and Dean, fun video! 👍

Absolutely perfect timing. I’ve been wanting to visit this store for a few years after seeing the videos. Long long ago I was heavy into fish. I just set up a tank for the first time in about 20 years. My plan is either a shell dweller (I know they’re very difficult to get, I still know a couple people though) colony or a birchardi colony. I live 2 hours south of this store and I’m headed up Monday to get some of those birchardi!! Sitting in front of a fish less aquarium and super excited!

I love that shop!! It’s so amazing

I visited this store in 2019 I was so impressed. Every tank is planted and they all look amazing

The adventures of dean continues!!!

What a unique place old dated a health and safety nightmare but a treasure chest of fishy goodness

LOVE...IT...! 5:17 when Dean says, "Sometimes old school can be a lot more fun." Word. 😆

What a magical place!

Ah this is the place Cory did a tour of! Amazing that they do no water changes! From the UK 😊❤️

this reminds me of old school fish store in Asia. SE Asia to be exact. Definitely will come visit next time I go to SF. Thanks for the video! Subbed

Nice dope video 👌i miss that store so much☹️☹️☹️

I love the tour of this store that I have ever seen. If I ever get to San Francisco, this is the only fish store I absolutely HAVE to visit! 👍💓👍

Haven’t been able to make it out here in a bit and I was worried there where closed. Super happy to see them still open!

Love the old school. I still run under gravel filters. To all you youngsters they rally work well. Thanks for the fun tour

I purchased 4 of master Justin’s butterfly orandas last year. I will visit him soon. Thank you for this content.

Looks like the kind of place that you might possibly be able to purchase a Mogwai.

I'd never leave! I'd love to have a store like this! this is inspiring my next tank set up!

Love you too guys

It's like a aquarium warehouse.

holy crap when you started going through the nano tanks and I noticed they were just on L brackets... my jaw dropped. I can't believe they are holding that well. Great video as always

Dean - The Masker Breeder

This fish store is awesome

14:19 Aspidoras pauciradiatus - an amazing little fish. No matter if your a cory-lover or not. Get them when you see them, you will never regret it :-)

Nice tour there super nice shop cheers :D friend

Great tour of that store. Hoping you are going to visit Aqua Forest as well! 🤙

You and dean make a great team

Your hair looks great!

New sub. Love you videos. Love Dean. Thank you for sharing! - Little Bobby

Super cool place to visit. I loved it and picked up more fish. Make sure you tell him you're a fish nerd so he talks to you like one. If you don't he'll assume you're a tourist. Love Justin and his wife. I went last week and I'm going again next month when I stop in San Fran

I love this place!! I wish Justin and Ady would adopt me as their adult child haha

Awesome video, appreciate the sharing...I live in michigan and we have alot of LFS still around and thriving. . I agree with you people should respect each other more and be more mindful of just being polite.

That place is great

I could spend hours searching through tanks there, but the place looks like a fire hazard waiting to go up.

Dean is fantastic 👏

How have i never thought about using a bottle + airline + sponge to create a sponge filter! Genius!

I went to this store last month and I have to say it was a cool little spot

Rocking the Grey hair looks good brother...

wow i need to visit this place

Aquarium fish Depot in San Diego is the bomb

Reminds me of one of my favourite LFS in Sydney Australia

That store was so fun I’ve been there! I really wanted some shellies from the first tank when you walk in 😢

Green and more green.

Amazing fish planet 💖

Great video, gotta visit this store

gotta love mom and pop small aquaroum stores they vram as much as they can and still take good care of the fish' compared to bix box fish stores'

Imma go there next week for some guppy grass I'm looking for a big proshion

Looks like a great lfs this is what my lfs is like tanks on tanks it's only about the size of a master bedroom everything is jammed in lol nice video n share 👍

I've visited this store recently. I just wouldn't bring up opposing ideas if I ever go back

When my partner and I were finally fully vaccinated, we masked up and half lived in our LFS for a while. Such a great place!!

Woo amazing the shop is artisan
