I visited this shop yesterday for the first time and immediately knew where I was coming to stock the rest of my tank, and I live 1 1/2 hours away. The staff was very knowledgeable about everything in the store. The place was also incredibly welcoming. One thing I enjoy is a place that I look forward to going back too and this is absolutely that place. So if youre looking to get into the hobby I couldnt recommend Mile High Tides more.

Jake is simply awesome!I contacted Jake about moving a tank to a new house and his rates were extremely reasonable and I was blown away by his process. It was fast, clean, and very cool to see him work. I learned a lot by helping out. Jake is by far the most accommodating person in this business I have met by far. His schedule was jammed pack between setting up his shop with new tanks, a partnership merging, and his store anniversary! He MADE the time to stick to his word and personally help me out. Just an awesome guy who loves the hobby and helping the hobbyists succeed.

Just stopped in at this fantastic new store, and picked up a beautiful torch... Huge selection of coral, and at great prices. Large, clean store and, most importantly, immaculate tanks. The owner is very friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. Definitely excited to have a new go-to shop for saltwater because, as we all know, the good ones are hard to find. Thank you much!

People seem cool, but this place is joke.I went in on Saturday (Support Small Business Day). I asked about specials and tall guy with glasses tells me it is 20% off storewide. So I decide to buy some fish. Two wrasses, a blenny, and a goby. He bagged blue sided wrasse and goby right away. The blue sided wrasse was in same tank as blenny. The blenny would not come out of rock. I ended up waiting an hour even though I told them they could catch him later and I would come back. Instead they gave me the rock with blenny in it. Jake was cautious and said the tank was treated with copper so let me know not to put it in display. At check out everything rang up at full price, I said what about 20% off? Jake said it was only on frag tank but he would give me 10%.I get home and acclimate fish. The blue wrasse was not doing well the whole time and flukes/fish scales were falling off of him while still in acclimating. All fish went into qt tank. All other fish were fine in am, even blenny which never left rock. Blue wrasse was dead in the am. Within 24 hrs, I was back at store with dead fish. Tall guy is sitting down and says they don’t warranty marine fish. He claims neither do other fish stores, which is not true. I told him fish was not well during acclimation and his reply was that I should have called the store and told them!!!! Anyone with experience acclimating a fish knows each fish acclimates differently. So he refuses to provide a store credit (around $36, not a big deal to me).I know Jake, the owner, is highly respected in the fish community, but this isn’t a way to do business. Have employees tell a customer that there is a storewide sale when there isn’t. Have a customer wait an hour+ to catch a fish when customer said just catch it later and he will come back. Give customer a fish burrowed in rock treated with copper. Don’t even warranty a fish that dies within hours of being acclimated and qt. The tall guy didn’t even have the courtesy to stand up when customers enters the store.See FB review posts from 11/29/2020. All they do is give excuses and blame others. They even blame the time of my purchase on someone else. When you know better, you do better.

Awesome new store in Platt Park. Has an awesome selection of corals and also a PALM tree growing indoors!! So clean and fresh setup and a wonderful staff that answers all your saltwater questions. If you want the answers come here. Hands down for being open such a short time they know what their doing!! Stop in and check things out because I am sure everytime you come in here you will find something new every time.
