After several months of debating we have decided to close down the business. This past year has been interesting and made us realize where our focus needs to be. Unfortunately that focus does not include running this business.

We have done this for almost 7 years and have spent thousands of hours cutting and assembling caves for many people in the hobby. We have sold our products all over the US, including Hawaii, Alaska, and Puerto Rico. We have met many people and gained many friends over these years and we will truly cherish all that.

We wish everyone the best and we say thank you for making something, we never thought possible, a success.

Thanks,
Kevin and Michele

Moved and re-plumbed my filters and RO setup.

Sadly I broke the RO membrane housing so I’m waiting for a new one to arrive before I can test it.

I am on a well system so these filters help get what my house filters miss. I also have to use a booster pump due to lower house water pressure. It makes my RO filter way more efficient with less waste water.

Now with this setup I will be able to do water changes with regular tap water and/or RO water. Plus it will double as a filling station for the water cooler jugs we use for drinking water.

Plumbing mock up for the new tanks. It’s going to have some good flow!

These tanks are meeting built into some cabinetry and the backgrounds will be black. No plumbing will be visible when viewing the tank except for the black pvc outlet which I’ll try to hide with rocks.

Quick update for anyone who is wondering. I hurt my foot pretty bad a few weeks ago and have been told to take it easy. I’m hoping to be cleared soon but it’s completely up to the doctor.

We will be closed for the next few weeks. We will post when we are back up and running. Thanks for your understanding.

If you guys aren’t following aquarium co-op, you should be. If anything follow them so you can get good updates on Dean’s fishroom. Dean has been a good customer of mine over the last few years and he is an amazing breeder.

You can also follow Dean on Instagram .

The juvie hide around the 1:40 mark looks kind of familiar 😉

It's been a while since Cory has visited master breeder Dean's fish room, and a lot has changed! Everything is spawning like crazy, including the angelfish, ...

It’s cave making weather finally!!!! For this year we will be maintaining an inventory of our most commonly purchased items which means we will need a few weeks to start building up that inventory.

We have updated our 2022 price list.

Single opening caves will now be sold in a 3-pack or a 2-pack, based on their cost and size.

Some will notice that our condos have been removed from the price list. We are going to be making “simpler” condos in a variety of sizes instead of making all our “fancy” condos in one size. These condos will be kept in stock as much as possible and will get added to our stock list soon.

Custom condos and caves can be requested but turn around time will vary.

Our goal this year is to sell as many caves and condos as possible and to get them to your door as fast as possible. We will have some new products and lots of tried and true stuff we have offered for years.

We are excited for your orders and thank you for supporting us!
