This is the BEST independent fish store Cory has ever seen! He and @chrislukhaup drove out the Giga Zoo in the middle of the mountains of Bavaria and toured this incredible local fish store that was completely built by the owner Franz over the last 25 years. He built all the aquariums, granite stands, carbon fiber walls, and natural wood furnishings. He even helps customers drill the tanks they bought and pick out their custom plumbing parts. Find out why this one store managed to impress even Cory.

Facts. This is prolly a top 3 store ive ever seen. He put a ton of money into that shop
This place is like a jewelry store but, for fish! This is truly beautiful!
I love when Cory is talking, and then gets immediately sidetracked as soon as he sees something cool. 😅
Unbelievable! He's the GOD of DIY
This is fascinating. The amount of work that went into this store is staggering. I'd love to see it one day.
I was hoping to hear he grew the trees, chopped them down, and dried them out too, Lol. What an amazing store!!
This store is so cool. My Aunt who lives in Germany has gone here before on day trips.
German Engineering is just Spitzenklasse. Solid is the word that come to mind. Hes a proud and a crafty guy I can tell, just mindblowing.
The granite trimmed tanks look fantastic
Amazing. Sustainability. He will never have to replace the supports again. Do it once is a good idea.Stunning shop.
Cory, please get us that Sunset Crypt! That place is fabulous!
The vines growing out of that scape are gorgeous. Nice to see someone else growing monstera deliciosa aquaponically.
You hyped this video a lot during the live stream on Sunday, and I still think you didn’t hype it enough :) Incredible
It was awesome to listen to Cory go full nerd on the store. 😂 One passionate owner geeking out on another.

Exactly! Him geeking out over everything just made the video that much more spectacular! 🤓
I love seeing Cory this excited about everything. Watching the inner "fish nerd" come out in full force reminds me why I like this dude so much. Great video!
The level of craftsmanship in that store is absolutely world class. Amazing and so much respect that store owner.
That truly is an amazing store... As a store owner yourself, I can't believe you didn't set that one tipped over jar of food back in its proper place... 😜 Awesome video and thank you so much for sharing this with us... A dream store absolutely... ❤
Beautiful tank. You might want to consider doing water changes through the drain on one of your FX6's. Both in and out. Very efficient, no mess, and less stress on your fishy. Fluval also produce a vacuum cleaner that can be connected to the drain valve, where the water will return to the tank after passing through a filter sock in the cleaner. Nice feature to have, especially when trimming moss and such, to prevent the debris from entering your water column.
When Cory feels like he's in Papa's shop. The craftsmanship, eye for detail, and quality is phenomenal.
The craftsmanship and level of materials used are the best of the best to the point where I'm not sure if the owner is a fish keeper or an architect.
Aquarium co op goals!
Thank You for travelling there and sharing with us :) The level of dedication and expertise mindblowing!
granite shelving... holy cow! wow, just wow!!!!
Seems like when people in Germany get into a hobby they do it well. The video was awesome. The store was even more awesome. I really in joyed seeing the video and the mind blowing store.
the tank with the lights on the inside and the sponge filter back wall is a brilliant invention which should go worldwide
The amount of work that went into that store is phenomenal !!
That fish aquarium at 4:47 is "aaaaaamazing". 120x80x80 Nice!!!!
"Giga Zoo" is absolutely outstanding! Many thanks for sharing & greets from the Center of Germany.✌
It warms my heart to see someone so passionate that he created this masterpiece! Thank you for showing this to us.
This man is living the dream. He really made a living doing what he loved and doing it his way.
Thinking I may be able to talk my son & his fiancé into coming here this summer & bring me goodies. They're spending 8 weeks in Slovakia & Europe ❤
You are the Spielberg of aquarium videos. Great content creates an appetite for great content.🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟
02:00 based on everything there and that growth of the monstera, that checks out. 25 years go by fast if you enjoy it
Super Shop ❤
"If you build it, they will come" This is the same reason the hobby is so healthy in your area too. Your store is the "Field of Dreams".
My hometown fish store in Titusville FL couldn't be a more complete opposite from this. I mean a complete 180! Would love to have this somewhere near. Great job! Thanks for sharing.
I love that EVERY tank looks clean and happy it's truly amazing❤
I really wish we had the level of aquarium technology here in the US that they have in Europe.
"Snoop -Dogg- Fish" Cory with the AAA - Access All Areas VIP pass to The Giga Zoo. Thanks for risking the rats and reptiles to share the full virtual tour.
Thanks Cory to share these trips with us - really great to see
Listened to the podcast and had to come watch this video after hearing Cory share the owner's story, just wow. What a man and what a journey he's been on. Thanks for sharing this content
Great video Corry, I should visit this store!
Well said @Cory, imagine what the next 15 years can bring to AquariumCoop. Inspiration at its best, thanks for sharing.
The one of the best video tours ever, except the one with the hot springs was spectacular. 😅❤
What an amazing man with an even more amazing vision. If quality control could be guaranteed he should replicate the business model around the world or franchise. What a great man!
Wow! Inside and outside is beautiful
Thanks for sharing this awesome experience!
What a fun video! I'd love to see Dean tour this store; he would be geeking out even more than Cory did 😂
Something to strive for Cory. If you were looking for inspiration, you found it 😀👍🏻
Makes me proud to be a part of the hobby, more than ever before!
Absolutely incredible!!!!
Wow, Just Wow!
Great video, really loved the tour. Keep up the great work!!
Wow I’m simply amazed. Your store is well on it way also! This is such a great tour video. You rock Cory!
Such a pristine store! I ❤️ it. Can't wait to visit the new expansion opening of the Aquarium Co-Op!!
Wow, just wow
Wow, this is one of the coolest charismatic shops I've ever seen.
"I`m not the Egyptians" lol exactly what I was thinking too!
Spellbinding!! You Can tell Corey's geekin 😂
So smart putting the lights on the inside of the aquarium, recycle some of the heat of the lights into the tanks! Love the Carbon Fiber tanks. And the wrap around tanks in the isles.
What an amazing store.
This is the 3rd time I have watched the video and I can see it even more , thank you Cory for the awesome video which is the perfect example for someone like me that has been guilty of not being a self starter in my life and I tend to have given up when I'm looking to far ahead , usually the outcome I think is the only thing that would matter. Something I remember you have brought up before, and I know it's a lot of different things that I can do to address it. Words like pride of ownership is something that I have been enjoying when I really was just renting 🌐
I would love to see aquarium co-op sell their own branded aquarium kits geared towards beginners. As someone currently searching for a 20-30 gallon kit the market is very limited and the value for your money just isn’t there.
Amazing. Love these vids.
Now that is next level and impressive
Thank you for making this video cory lots of love and a big fan of yours! :) lovely store
That was worth the watch!!
What an amazing place. So relaxing inside. I want my fish room to feel this way. Thanks for the look.
This is so awesome! What a store!
Home to the most creative hobbyists in the world. Thanks for covering this!
This is impressive. Thanks for sharing.
Was that guy a bond villain back in the day ? Everything is so clean and sharp
Bummed this place isn’t in the states. I would love to go here. I got so excited they have reptiles too. Little sad that all you showed us was one gecko but it is a fish channel after all.
Hi Cory! I am thankful for your passion for the aquarium Hobby! Would you consider selling matten filters media on your website? If not where would you recommend purchasing high quality materials?
Love the dedication and planning involved in this tank build. Honest question, if you were to move houses obviously you wouldn't be able to take this with you but also HOW would you go about disassembling it ? That's the only thing I keep thinking about lol. Great perseverance and troubleshooting! Enjoy
Absolutely amazing.
Thank you for sharing this fish store is beautiful ❤from🇦🇺
Giga zoo is such a fitting name jeez😂
Wowza! Amazing!
That’s an amazing store thank you for sharing I would love to go in there I could stay there for hours
10:21 it is a Blue eyed catfish/pleco of some sort
Great video, bless his heart
I really hope one day in my life i come and vist the aquarium co op store and its even on higher level, than giga zoo. My dreams will come true

Awesome store!!
Beautiful wish I could see this store in my lifetime❤❤❤❤
Those "purpley" Nannostomus were EXTREMELY RARE! Look like 'cenepa' or 'amaya'. Either way, extremely rare.
What a beautiful place I love all the granite
Ein Wahnsinns Shop! 😮..Dort gibt's bestimmt alles, was das Aquarianerherz begehrt... 😀
my dream is haveing an aquarium shop like that one day :,) even if i can only make the tanks and the cabinet it will be so cool
So dame cool Hailing from Barbados....Hoorah🦁☠
Wow just amazing
Those granite covered tanks are beautiful
This Is unbelievable
As someone who also works in retail, it drives me crazy that you didn't reposition that food can at 16:38. My OCD is going wild.
Wow.... just Wow!!
Great video!
Wow the European tour you are doing os awesome 😎. Love the content keep it up!
I have set (and re-set) a lot of standard boring gondola style shelving in my past life -- this granite shelving looks outstanding! Everything was so clean (I was in a LFS yesterday, it was a mess. ) The wheels in Cory's head are turning for sure!! (Cut and polished Basalt from the North Cascades?? 🤔)
