Awesome place for salt water fish. Very informative nice down to earth people. Dont be discouraged because its off main road and in a garage. The place is huge clean and has so much beautiful coral. I was impressed.

Thanks for all the great products and help! Youve got a customer for life!

I’ve been going to see Terry and Tewsley for years now! they are wonderful and always have quality fish and corals etc. i won’t shop anywhere else. ️ very personable and i consider them my friends!

Sweet corals and fish. Nice people. Most def going back here, often.

Really lovely, very knowledgeable owners in an intimate (garage) setting, some beautiful fish and more seahorses than youll ever see in one place. Prices are very reasonable.

This small shop is amazing. Fair prices, one on one service, and tons of knowledge. This is my go-to salt water shop in Portland.

They always have a very good selection of corals and fish nice place friendly and helpful I recommend highly

Nice little shop with some neat fish & good prices.

Best reef and aquarium store in town!

Amazing customer service! Wonderful selection! I have been shopping here for years! Terry & Tewsley are so knowledgable, nice and professional and personable. I would never shop at any other store in town! This is the place to go for saltwater fish and supplies!

Best shop ever, and I have been to many over the years. Tremendous honest and knowledgable service with great selection and prices!

Great place all around. Very friendly and helpful. They have beautiful fish and coral with great prices.

I have always gotten the help and advice I needed. (And I need alotta help) They have a nice variety of healthy fish and corals and invertebrates at a fair price.

I love this shop! I’ve gotten outstanding advice and Terry and his wife never tire of sharing their knowledge with me. Having just gone through ick in my reef tank taking their advice on fallowing my tank and treating my fish has given me a fresh start with a healthy tank. From here on out I will only shop for livestock at Woody’s!

Nicest owners Ive ever met and by far the most beautiful saltwater place Ive been in!

This place is amazing. Small, but lots of interesting and beautiful fish for sale... It looks like a wider array of coral frags are coming soon. The owners are very friendly as well!

Beautiful frags!! Friendly owners who were knowledgeable and helpful!

I started my saltwater and reef hobby in the year 2000. However, at first, I had no idea what I was doing and so I ended up losing be a bunch of fish and a bunch of money due to my lack of knowledge and lack of any good customer service from the local stores in Portland. Then around the beginning of 2002, I bought my first 29 gallon saltwater and reef tank setup from Woody and he ended up giving me some of the most helpful and best advice anyone could get. I learned a lot from him. I did the hobby for around 6 successful years and then quit due to working so much and not having the time and money to dedicate myself anymore to the hobby. Anyways, I decided that I better give my review now 17 years later. YouTube and Google reviews didnt even exist back then. I may stop in someday just to say hi. Jamey

Always has the healthiest fish around, and a nice selection for the size of shop. Terry knows his stuff!

Super helpful and willing to spend time discussing your setup and how you can be successful at whatever stage you are at in the hobby. I bough a tank from someone who had credit at Woodys and they didnt bat an eye transferring it to me as part of the purchase, which was awesome.

Very friendly and helpful. Seemed willing to spend lots of time with the customer and answer all types of questions. I would recommend them!

Love Woodys Seahorse. My wife and I enjoy the great selection of fish and coral at great prices. Terry is very knowledgeable and helps us out so much. He does not try to get us to spend money on things we dont need.

I took my niece and nephew here after watching finding Nemo. They loved it! The staff were super friendly and gave us great fun facts. As we looked at all of the fish we could tell that they truly loved and knew about their critters. Would highly recommend! I will be back with my other nieces soon!

Love this shop awesome people and healthy fish

Weve been Seahorse customers for over 10 years and plan to continue to be for many more! Some of the first saltwater fish I purchased a decade ago are still alive and doing well. Im always impressed by the selection of corals they have and the unique fish they stock. More importantly, their service is top notch and they really make you feel welcome in their store. Recently we experienced a disaster with our house due to a major water leak that required us to completely take down our 90 gallon tank. Without bating an eye, Terry and his wife took in our fish and coral temporarily while repairs were being made on our house. We now have our tank back up and running and just got our fish and coral back yesterday. They took care of our fish and coral like they were their own. We are so grateful and cant wait until our tank is mature enough to add in more coral and fish.

Best place for saltwater tanks. A lot of nice invertebrates and fish.. even seahorses.. beautiful. And the service is awesome they really know what theyre doing..

I actually havent patronized this place, but its funny that Google things I did, because I happened to bump into a friend who was looking for it. They were a little weirded out that there was no signage to assure then they were in the right spot.

Great for exotic and awesome looking fish, but not much in terms of supply.

What an awesome place! We were visiting Portland from out of state, and were looking for local saltwater/coral shops. We saw that Woodys Seahorse had really good reviews so we had to check it out. They have a great selection of coral frags (LPS and SPS), as well as saltwater fish, anemones, hermit crabs, and of course seahorses. Everything looked so healthy and well cared for, with clean tanks. You can tell that they take a lot of pride in their craft.Theyre extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the animals they sell, and can answer any of your questions or just have a fascinating conversation with you about the saltwater hobby. I was especially impressed by how well they packed up our purchases for us, knowing that we were going to be flying back with them. They wrapped everything up so well, sealed watertight and bound in a very thick layer of bubble wrap, that it survived two flights in our checked baggage without a single issue. Perfect condition. They didnt have to do that, and could have just left it to us to figure out how to get it all back safely, but that just shows you how much care and effort they put into what they do.If we ever find ourselves back in Portland one day, well definitely be coming back to Woodys Seahorse. I wish we had a place like this in Birmingham: a local, small business run by people who are truly dedicated to the hobby, and whose passion is reflected in the care of their animals.

Best saltwater store in Portland, Oregon by far. Great customer service and do a great job of guiding you towards the right direction. Highly recommend it to other reefers.

Great selection, clean prestine tanks, knowledgeable staff, friendly and great prices.

Such a great cottage home for all your reef tank needs.

What a great place! Its super small, but its packed with tons of really cool saltwater fish and things, and the staff is extremely knowledgeable, Im so happy that we were able to make it in there and find this diamond in the rough!

Great costumer service great all around!!!

My husband and I were not impressed. It felt like more of a garage than a store. We were not asked if we needed any assistance and had to find someone to help. We both think Cuttle Fish and Corals has a much friendlier staff and a clean store.

This is the best place to go if you want to start with saltwater fish. Woody has helped me be successful with my fish and live rock setup over the last 14 years. He has vast practical knowledge. I like buying the high quality pre-mixed saltwater there, very affordable. It makes keeping a marine tank a breeze.

Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Beautiful saltwater fish and coral. On the smaller side, but has everything you need. Great local, family owned business.

Been going to Woodys for years. He was such a great person. His family is keeping him alive through the new location. Such great people.

Small place but really cool fish and frags for sale

Woody and crew are always super-helpful and friendly. Very knowledgeable and able to order anything. His old-school approach to aquariums is refreshing and interesting. He is willing to help via email.

Not a large selection at all. The whole set up is in a garage and is just very weird. Cuttlefish and Corals is way better and more selection with a friendlier staff.

This is the only place I will ever give my aquarium business to so long as Im within 50 miles of it. The prices and the selection are good, but the service is outstanding. I feel like Im visiting with great friends who are helping me out with my aquarium. They are always friendly and welcoming and while many businesses claim to, Woodys actually does treat you like an honored guest in their home.

Great place and Terry is an endless wealth of information; he has the utmost interest in his customers success and bends over backwards for them. Thank you for being awesome!

Best selection of coral in the Portland area by far with the best prices on everything. Everything Terry sells is very healthy. He is very knowledgeable and easy to talk to about any issue you may have. A+++

Very friendly, very helpful. Best place in Portland.

Best Saltwater Store for any saltwater need in the Portland area for sure, Terry is the man, he is always friendly and doesn’t try to just sell, sell, sell...well actually take time to help you have a successful reef

Kind and helpful. Woody would be proud.

Fantastic Service! I bought a brand new 125 gallon tank, stand, sump, lights from Woodys. Firstly it was a great deal. Second they stand behind everything they sell. My first sump developed a leak about 2 month after I bought it. Terry came over when the store closed and tried to fix it. He did a good job of slowing down the leak but it was not completely fixed. The next day he sent over two other people to help fix it. They got the leak down to a very occasional drip. Knowing that the sump was likely unfixable, Terry ordered a new sump. He had it custom built and it was better than the first. He took into consideration my ATO and controller and slightly redesigned it so it was even better. He had it made by a different builder too. I am very happy with them!

Very friendly staff. I was after fresh water snails, but my girls loved roaming around checking out all the sea life.

Great store, experienced people at your service.

Super Helpful Service!

Best salt water fish store. Amazing customer service

Lots of nice fish selection and very helpful

I have been a customer of Woodys for years and you will not find better customer service ANYWHERE else. They are passionate about the marine ecosystem. To them this is not a passing hobby that will be replaced as soon as they get Finding Dori out of their system. They are dedicated to the ecosystem. They have a wealth of knowledge and expertise and are very willing to share it with everyone, without carving a hole in their pocket. Back in the day, neighborhood kids used to come to the old location and learn about the saltwater world. They even had a special tank with a ray and a little shark that used to make the children and their parents oooh! and ahhh!. It is unfortunate that a few years ago they had to relocate and scale down. Notwithstanding the scale-down to accommodate the business in their home space, their quality has not suffered. It is true that, due to the limited space, they do not have a huge selection on site. However, if you want something that they do not have on hand, just tell them and they will order it for you. Instant gratification is overrated. Believe me, it is worth the wait. Stop by the place and pick their brains for $0 and, if you are smart enough to stick around and check out the place, they have a metric tonne of live rock for amazingly reasonable prices and their livestock selection is not bad. By the way, they offer captive-bred sea horses that will eat frozen foods, so when you bring them home you do not end up with a broken heart watching them starve to death from the comfort of your Lazyboy, and their prices are much more reasonable than those offered online. I love this place, and the people. I actually give them 100 star rating.

Went here with my husband yesterday. Woodys daughter and son inlaw are helping run the place they were super helpful. The tanks all looked clean and healthy. They had a great selection of frags and larger corals. I would highly recommend this place especially if your just starting out and have questions they are incredibly patient and willing to answer a ton of questions whether by phone or email. We will definitely be going back .

Largest variety I have seen in Portland. Good quality, good prices, great customer service. Location is a little strange, but you will get past that once you visit your first time.

What a fascinating place!

Best saltwater fish tank support/supplies/fish/corals in Portland. You rock!

Woodys has helped me from the setting up of my reef and helped me with any problems that have come up its not just about the money with them . Its my go to store

Small little shop, but a good amount inside. Was only one tank with seahorses when my wife and I went, which was a little disappointing. That being said, the owner was very friendly, and very knowledgeable.

Terry is great to talk to he is never too busy to show you new creatures that might be hiding somewhere in his tanks

Best place in town for a reef lover. Great prices, great selection, great customer service.

Great customer service. They know a lot.

Always helpful and family owned. They really know fish and coral.

Im a total newbie and they broke it down for me the do and dont for what I have to work with right now. Had my inquisitive 5 yr old with me Tuesley very patient. Definitely going back!

Bought a pump. What as great.beautiful place

Woodyand Terry are very patient with new inexperienced hobbiest. Dont let the unconventional location detour you. These guys are straight up with affordable pricess. The tanks look well maintained and the stock looks healthy if they dont have it just ask and they will get it. They loaned me a whole saw and jig to drill through my glass saved me $40.00 on that alone. The salt and di water are affrodable and easy access.

Decent place.Local Salt water source

They have awesome seahorses
