We received a new batch of High Fin Blue and Gold Rams! We also got in a bunch of really stunning Electric Blue Rams. We’re loaded with awesome fish and plants this weekend!

09/15/2024

We received some really hard to find and rare African Cichlids this week! Juvenile Walteri Peacocks and Alto, Compressiceps “Orange” are just a couple of the amazing fish that arrived! The juveniles are a great way to get your hands on some serious stunners without the price tag of the adults. A lot of us also like to watch our fish grow into their adult forms and these juveniles will definitely reward that effort.

09/14/2024

Rainbow Kribensis and Siamese Algae Eaters! Tons of new stock in this week and it’s one of the best looking orders we’ve received in the last few months.

09/12/2024

This is what Meta AI thinks a Malawi Hawk Cichlid looks like. The real ones are way better looking and you can see them in the store now! We have a big fish and plant order in this week! We have some real rarities in and a bunch of new plants we haven’t gotten in before!

09/10/2024

WE’RE HIRING! We’re looking for knowledgeable store staff and service techs for part time work (to start). Our service division is growing and the store is getting busier! If you’re looking for a great work environment with opportunities to learn from industry experts and work on some great displays, this is your chance to get started!

Send us a resume or drop one off at the store.

Some Broadleaf Ludwigia in one of our sale plant tanks at the store. It did not arrive looking like this, this is what it’s turned into at the store. We’re constantly working to make everything in the store that much better and help you achieve your dream tank the easiest way possible. We have a lot of amazing projects in the works, some a lot bigger than others. It’s a constant process for us.

In the coming weeks you’re going to see a big push with our plant offerings. We’re excited to share some of the steps we’re taking to try and make top tier displays more accessible to our customers.

08/30/2024

We’re loaded up with Dymax North America Base Soil again! We use this soil in our own plant tanks and the growth and rooting is impressive. We see substantial root growth even from new arrival plants within a few days. It has what plants crave!

08/29/2024

135gal skeletal reef system for a school marine bio lab is finally running! Startup was delayed until staff would be around again. Next step is hanging the kessilled lights and tying up the wires with a CoralVue HYDROS control system for this unit and a larger display to the left of this one. More on that later!

On to the next build!

08/22/2024

We replaced our RO membrane and other cartridge filters today. Our customers and clients know we take our water quality very seriously. That’s our old 1,000gpd membrane next to a standard 10” carbon filter. New membranes have to be flushed before the product water can be used for anything. This removes any preservatives and other chemicals/sediment left during the production process. We also recommend a quick flush after replacing sediments, carbon, or DI stages to make sure the product water is optimal.

08/18/2024

Male and female Apistogramma Pandurini are available in the store! These great looking dwarf cichlids grow to about 2.5” and have a lot of personality. Considered semi aggressive, like most dwarf cichlids, these fish do best with similarly sized peaceful fish in a community or species only display.

08/15/2024

This weeks order is in and we have a bunch of amazing fish we haven’t seen in the store before! These Sailfin Tetras did not disappoint! We also received a couple species of Apistogramma we haven’t gotten in before and they are stunners!

08/09/2024

We’ll make this a contest with a $50 GIFT CARD going to whoever gets the most likes on their idea. We’re finalizing the built in display at the store. As of right now the glass dimensions are 30” x 40” x 48” tall. This display will be freshwater and I have a pretty good idea of what direction I want to go with it, but the 4’ vertical has generated a lot of great ideas from customers and staff.

So, what would you do with a tall rectangular display? Post a description, pics, drawings, whatever supporting details you want. The only rule is you have to “like” at least one other persons idea.

08/09/2024

Electric Blue Acaras available in the store! You aren’t going to find a healthier or better looking EB Acara anywhere else. The color on these fish is out of control ranging from metallic gold to the deepest blue!

08/05/2024

We have a bunch of really nice looking Colombian Zebra Plecos available! These stay small enough for most aquariums and won’t break the bank. They’re great, maxing out at only a few inches and sporting that contrasting banding these zebras are a very popular pleco!

08/04/2024

Rainbow Cichlids are spawning in one of our store systems! That’s a decent sized clutch of eggs too. We must be doing something right when our fish spawn in our holding systems!

07/26/2024

Blue Tail Hillstream Loaches in one of our freshwater systems at the store. They’re Hillstream Loaches with some flare.

07/25/2024

Big plant and fish order is in! Several new to the store species are available starting today. Follow here for more updates.

07/23/2024

Flame Hawkfish 🔥 perched in a bright Green Sinularia in one of our service accounts. It’s always interesting to see natural behaviors in our captive systems.

07/17/2024

We might have to install a chiller on our African Cichlid system just to keep the temp down with this guy swimming around! We received a few stellar looking OB Peacocks and a few others, including this superstar!

07/16/2024

Long Fin German Rams are back! This might be the nicest batch we’ve seen so far too! We have a limited number available and they might be gone before the weekend. We also have a few Long Fin Golds, but they came in rough and are currently being treated. Once they’re ok they’ll go out for sale.

07/14/2024

500 Bettas arriving tomorrow for a client’s event this week! That’s just shy of half the jars we have to setup too. Bettas will be properly handled leading up to and kept in cycled water for the event.

GUESS THE NUMBER OF JARS! The first person to guess closest to the correct number of jars on the table gets a $25 gift card! You have until Thursday 7/18 to post your guess here in the comments.

07/10/2024

2” Geophagus Jurupari are in! These peaceful cichlids scour the sand bed looking for food and mostly stick to themselves, unless breeding. Like other Geos, they do best with sand or a finer grain substrate, depending on their size. They will choke on larger pebbles. Over the years, some of our favorite displays have housed a small school of these cruising around over a sand bed peacefully sifting around the hardscape! All Geos get way nicer as they mature.

07/07/2024

We have some 2” Ophthalmotilapia ventralis cichlids from southern Lake Tanganyika available in the store. Not a beginner species and definitely not for regular African Cichlid displays. Like a lot of the harder to find Africans, these don’t start out looking as amazing as their adult form, but if you give them an open display with rock outcrops, proper parameters, and quality foods, you’ll have some serious stunners on your hands.

07/05/2024

Hi-Fin Whiteclouds are finally back in stock! These fish are a favorite and it’s obvious why. Lots of color and activity with these guys. Best kept in small groups.

06/27/2024

The store will be opening up a few hours late today. We have a lot going on right now. After today’s delay we’ll be back to a normal schedule for the rest of the week.

06/26/2024

This 135gal reef system with Synergy Reef Systems overflow, sump, and ATO reservoir is coming along. A SICCE ADV pump keeps water running through the filtration so the Reef Octopus skimmer can do its job! Can’t wait to see this one full of fish and coral soon!

06/25/2024

I think this Rock Flower Anemone at one of our service accounts has a thing for fillers.

06/22/2024

Celebes Rainbows from this weeks order! These are some of the nicest Celebes we’ve received! Even at about 1.5” (max 3”) these are standouts among larger rainbows. Peaceful and active, these rainbows like their water a little harder and do best with stable conditions.

06/16/2024

Adolescent Taiwan Reef Haps from Lake Malawi in our African system at the store. These cichlids are one of the more colorful options with bright blues and yellows over white and some intense reds through the fins as mature adults!

We got in a big order of new fish and plants this week! Lots of amazing looking fish including these Rainbow Kribs that might be the best looking we’ve seen in a long time. #brooklynaquariumsociety #nassaucountyaquariumsociety #longislandreefassociation #greatercityaquariumsociety #communitytank #fishstore #aquariumservice #aquariumstore #deerparkny #aquariumdesign #apistogramma #rainbowfish #freshwaterfish #freshwatertank #aquarium #plantedtanks #customaquarium #freshwateraquarium #plantedaquarium #plantedtank #aquariumfish #aquariumhobby

These automated plant terrariums from Oase are definitely cool! We’ll be scaping this one shortly. So far the functionality and control are very interesting. #brooklynaquariumsociety #nassaucountyaquariumsociety #longislandreefassociation #greatercityaquariumsociety #fishstore #aquariumservice #aquariumstore #deerparkny

The Long Tentacle Red Goniopora has settled into the new system nicely and we’re already seeing growth again! A little more time to grow out and we’ll have some frags available. #brooklynaquariumsociety #nassaucountyaquariumsociety #longislandreefassociation #greatercityaquariumsociety #fishstore #aquariumservice #aquariumstore #coraltank #coralreef #aquaculture #deerparkny #reeflife #aquariumdesign #seaurchin #anemone #starfish #aquarium #reeftanks #reefaddict #reef #reef2reef #reefaquarium #reeftank #allmymoneygoestocoral #saltwaterfishtank #coral #saltwateraquarium #customaquarium #aquariumfish #aquariumhobby

Peruvian Floating Shrimp available in the store! These rarities are long arm shrimp, but they’re very peaceful and can be kept in groups and aren’t a danger to fish. #brooklynaquariumsociety #nassaucountyaquariumsociety #longislandreefassociation #greatercityaquariumsociety #communitytank #fishstore #aquariumservice #aquariumstore #deerparkny #aquariumdesign #freshwaterfish #freshwatertank #aquarium #plantedtanks #neocaridinashrimp #neocaridina #customaquarium #freshwateraquarium #plantedaquarium #plantedtank #aquariumfish #aquariumhobby

There’s a lot of new things going on at the store over the next few months.

I realized after posting that the pic that was posted with the initial contest was a later pic and not the original I had intended. So, now we have two numbers 499 (the pic) and 239 (the post and intended pic). So, three winners get $25 each.

I don’t think we ever got a 100% positive species ID on this one, but it’s one of the coolest looking tubastrea corals we’ve ever gotten in by far!

We take our sales tanks seriously and make sure they stay clean, because it means you get better quality fish! 4th of July 10% off sale is still running through Sunday!

The store will be closed July 4th, but we’ll be open for normal hours from Friday on.

The store will be opening up a few hours late today. We have a lot going on right now. After today’s delay we’ll be back to a normal schedule for the rest of the week.

Samurai Gourami available in the store! These social, yet shy fish do best with a lot of cover and peaceful tank mates. They’ve already started pairing off in our system.

We have Curviceps! These dwarf cichlids are peaceful and get some great color as they mature. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen these available. If they’re on your list I’d scoop them up fast!

We have some breeder size rainbows available in the store! These were all originally sourced from the store. Absolutely stunning specimens!

Sepia bandensis, Dwarf Cuttlefish, acclimating into a holding system several years ago. Cuttles are an incredible specimen to keep, but definitely a more advanced specimen to maintain. They require a lot of time and effort to keep them thriving. #brooklynaquariumsociety #nassaucountyaquariumsociety #longislandreefassociation #greatercityaquariumsociety #fishstore #aquariumservice #aquariumstore #deerparkny #aquariumdesign #aquarium #customaquarium #saltwateraquarium #aquariumfish #aquariumhobby

Tons of different rainbows available in the store! Plenty of hard to find and rare species in stock!

300 gallon planted African Cichlid display. First time seeing the 12”+ Malawi Trout and 12”+ Mdoka White Lips sparring after a large water change.

Orange Amano Shrimp in store! That Dymax substrate is looking hot too!

Kribensis and Odessa Barbs in natural sunlight! There’s just no better light that shows off what these fish actually look like in their natural state. Stunning!
