About us

The True Percula, one of the largest tropical fish stores in North Texas, is conveniently situated in Arlington, Texas, in the heart of the Ft. Worth / Dallas Metropolitan area. It is a location where the majesty and beauty of underwater life can be viewed and appreciated. Freshwater and saltwater specimens are uniquely displayed in a spacious 2,000 square foot central aquarium gallery which is equally divided into two areas: the freshwater gallery offers a large selection of freshwater fish, including African cichlids, and live plants; the marine gallery offers saltwater fish, corals and invertebrates from all over the world. The focal point of the gallery is a spectacular 1,200 gallon marine aquarium which sits at the gallery entrance: simulating a living reef, it can be viewed full circle at eye level. Healthy Livestock and Knowledgeable Staff are hallmarks of The True Percula. Top priority is given to the welfare of the livestock. Freshwater and saltwater specialists are available to assist customers with their aquarium needs, answer specific questions, and offer sound advice.

For years we have wanted a salt water aquarium. The True Percula store has an incredible variety of livestock, cured rock, tanks, lighting, filters, food, accessories and everything else for start up and experienced customers. Alex helped us make the choices that would work for our interests and goals. We purchased an 80 gallon unit, base, canopy, lighting, pump, sand, live rock and installation.

Alex and another crew member arrived as scheduled and set up everything perfectly. They showed us how the system worked, provided verbal directions, and did a super job cleaning up. They took extra care of the area rug by rolling it away; they moved the furniture and rug back when finished.

Alex and the other salt water pros are very patient with newbies like us. They give great advice on next steps for care and purchasing. After they test the water they help us understand what to look for and possible solutions. The store has a great variety of fresh and salt water aquariums that you can take your time and enjoy watching the creatures, plants and coral. While the prices may be a bit higher than chain pet stores, there is no doubt that you are getting quality well-cared for purchases. Tanks there are clean and always fresh.

While it would be great to have an aquarium stocked with fish after installation, True Percula is not about profit. They want customers to have an established best habitat and take it slowly for the aquarium to support the life that is added. We have super corals, rock, snails, crabs, and shrimp and are excited to make our next additions but know we need to be patient before adding fish.

True Percula gave us advice about the websites and resources to go to for help and information. The only recommendation that we have is that they provide a list of basic overviews of the aquarium parts and functions and things like when to change the filter sock.
