Urgent update for anyone coming by the shop today! Due to sudden minor dental emergency there will be nobody to man the shop from about 1:45 until whenever the dentist appointment ends, hopefully only an hour or two but I will update with a new status as soon as I know the shop is reopen! Sorry for the inconvenience!

01/30/2024

Another very busy week ahead of us here at the shop! Replumbing the fish systems is proving to be as complicated as aquarium projects usually go so it is not yet complete however 3 out of 6 of our freshwater tanks are up and running with more to come this week.

LIVE BLACKWORMS are available once again, im sure quite a few will be happy to hear that!

For the houseplant people Tyler managed to bring back some enormous Floridian golden pothos cuttings as well as some air plants for you to add to your collection

New coral and freshwater plants are on their way for delivery this week! Some of the coolest frags available plus some even better news that I'll have to save for another post! Until then check out these BEAUTIFUL bubbletip anemones that just got here today! Only 3 available!

01/22/2024

This upcoming week at Overboard will be a hectic one! Tyler won't be in the shop this week so Bill will be there solo. To top it off, our main fish systems are being replumbed this week by Bill so we are very low on live fish for sale but by the first week in February we should be ready to start restocking our systems with new fish. Half of our fish system is going to be converted to saltwater so we can offer a wider variety of healthy saltwater fish for your aquariums! We apologize for any inconvenience but with any luck this won't take too long and we will be back to fully operational in no time! Thanks to everyone for your support

01/11/2024

Shop will be closed tomorrow Thursday the 11th! Sorry for the inconvenience everyone but due to the bad weather we now have to catch up on some of our customer tank maintenance. Also with any luck we will be looking at a new vehicle tomorrow as well which if you know either of us is much needed!

If any special orders are made and confirmed by tomorrow morning I will be able to meet you at the shop no later than 10am tomorrow to fulfill them.

Again I'm sorry for anyone who was planning a trip out here but hopefully with a new vehicle the bad weather will be less of an issue in the future!

01/10/2024

Lots of Overboard updates today!

We have plenty of new saltwater dry rock in three varieties, base rock, flat cut foundation rock and everyone's favorite shelf rock! If you were looking for a new accent piece or to scape a new tank now is the time!

Live Blackworms are back in stock for the week, get em while they last!

We are currently emptying out one of our freshwater systems in favor of changing it to a saltwater fish system and the remaining livestock are on sale including some locally raised black gold dust mollies and some dwarf aquatic frogs.

Goodmorning! Overboard will be closing early today due to the impending snow storm. Id like to stay open as long as possible but as soon as the snow starts we will be closed up, probably around 3:30-4pm. Thanks for your understanding, we will be back on Wednesday hopefully with a new shipment of fish and live feeder blackworms! Any questions feel free to give us a call at the shop! Stay safe everyone!

12/14/2023

I've just been informed that the telephone pole across the street from the shop is being replaced today and we will be without power from 12 to around 2 or 3pm. The shop will be open and the register system should still be capable of taking cards but we will have no lights to see much of anything! Sorry for the inconvenience!

11/10/2023

Our latest shipment of Instant Ocean salt has just arrived! Prices have been skyrocketing on this stuff lately and unfortunately this is the first time ever we have had to raise our prices due to the cost and availability. Shipments may be spotty in the future so get it while it lasts! 200 gallon boxed are now $60 each but for those looking ahead we will be offering 4 boxes for $200 until next Friday 11/17 but they must be picked up at the time of purchase.

11/04/2023

Goodmorning! Overboard will be closing early today around 4:30, sorry for any inconvenience!!

10/06/2023

Closed today....againnnn. Sorry everyone for the horrible hours lately. As some may know, Overboard has been experiencing some pretty debilitating issues with our vehicles or lack there of. Thanks to a lot of favors from our family and friends we have been getting by but today we have to face the root of all evil, the DMV and no surprise its unnecessary complicated. So, Poseidon willing, we will be back in the shop before we're due to be closed at 6. Please message us if you have been effected by our closures! Thanks for everyone's cooperation!

10/04/2023

Closing early today at 5PM for an emergency tank visit! Sorry for the short notice, if you were effected please contact us directly!

If you have any questions about Overboard Aquatics tank maintenance and how you too can have us in the event of a tank emergency, send us an email or call during store hours for more information!

Fall is in the air! And by that I mean it's getting cold! So cold in fact that it was time to break down our summer guppy pond that we have been breeding livebearers and growing plants in all summer, little did we realize this would take the entire day. Bad news of the day is that today we will be opening late because we had to postpone doing some tank maintenance at a customers house yesterday and will be there this morning. Good news is that we are freshly restocked on guppies and have so much water lettuce that a sale is in order!

TLDR: Overboard is opening late today ill update with a time later. Summer pond guppies are back in stock and water lettuce is now $2/heaping portion while supplies lasts
