Our fish store

Our fish are homed in columns of three 10-gallon tanks. Water from each tank flows into a lower “sump” tank with a filtration system and a pump that returns the water to the tanks.

Each column environment is separate from the other columns. This balances our systems resources with the need to isolate environments and keep the fish healthy. Each tank also has its own air pump with a filter that oxygenates the water and provides another source of water cleaning.


Our latest fish

The German Blue Ram Fish is a stunning freshwater fish prized for its vibrant colors and peaceful demeanor, making it a popular choice among aquarists. Originating from South America, particularly the Orinoco River basin, this compact cichlid showcases distinctive electric blue hues on its body, complemented by striking black markings and vibrant splashes of yellow on its fins.

Aquatic plants

Aquarium aquatic plants are not only aesthetically pleasing additions to underwater landscapes but also play vital roles in maintaining a healthy ecosystem within the tank. Live plants oxygenate the water, absorb harmful nutrients, and provide shelter and hiding places for fish and invertebrates. They help regulate water chemistry, reduce algae growth, and create natural habitats that mimic the conditions of freshwater ecosystems.

Tank decor

Aquarium tank decor serves both aesthetic and functional purposes, creating an immersive underwater environment while also providing hiding spots and territories for aquatic inhabitants.
