Greetings from Pennsylvania, Colorado peeps!

Rob here, founder & original owner of Plant & Polyp Aquariums.
Just letting everyone know that I FINALLY opened a shop in PA and I am currently shipping dry goods and live plants. I hope you guys remember the size and quality of the live plants I used to sell. We will have the ability to ship fish and coral within the next month or so.

Miss all you guys and I'd love to help you with your aquariums once again. Please follow and like my new shop, Riverside Reef Aquatics LLC and let me know what you need. I really look forward to communicating with some of you again.

Well folks, that's officially all of the livestock sold off. We still have a couple tanks, systems, and dry goods left, and all supplements and test kits are 75% off until tomorrow night! Thank you so much to everyone who has stopped in this week to help us button it up. It's been amazing to be able to see everyone one more time. Keep on being amazing and don't miss the Pikes Peak Aquarist Society meetup tomorrow afternoon here at the shop!

Hello everyone. Today I have to make a post I was hoping I wouldn't have to.

Plant and Polyp will be closing permanently on Sunday July 24th. This shop has been a dream come true for me, but dreams don't pay the bills and I have to put my family first.

There is a bright side! From now until Sunday, everything in the shop is on clearance at 50% off. Certain items are marked down even lower. All of the tanks and systems are for sale as well. Now is your chance for the best deals on livestock and equipment ever, and you get to keep a little piece of this place for yourself.

I want to express my gratitude to everyone that made this incredible journey happen, including my fantastic employees Evan and Lucas, my former employees Natalie and Brayden, my amazing partner Jules, my parents, Nick, Kevin, Mahendra, Felipe and Melissa, and Robert and Rachel. And most of all I want to thank you, the person reading this, for being amazing and helping to build the Colorado Springs aquarium hobby up to where it is now.

If you find yourself needing advice or help with the hobby in the future please add me on my personal account, Webb, and I will always be there to answer your questions and help with what I can.

I am so excited for what the future holds for all of us and can't wait to share it with you. Thank you, we love you all.
