Doctor Eco Systems Nurturing Your Ecosystem Doctor Eco Systems is a grass roots organization committed to the overall success of the marine aquarium hobby.
(18)

We are passionate hobbyists and believe we can make a difference! Our mission is to improve and simplify the marine aquarium ecosystem with curiosity, science, and transparency. We’ll achieve our mission by creating a hobby with less reliance on livestock collections and more focus on aquaculture, water conservation, nurturing long and happy lives for our livestock, and fair pricing. This will all

ow us to naturally grow the number of active and successful hobbyists. We believe:

- The more you know about your ecosystem, the more successful you will be.

- That more science and fewer opinions are needed in this hobby.

- That we need to simplify the processes of care as too many fail due to the complexity or cost.

- Transparency is the right thing to do as a business.

- There are several excellent forums out there and that they are a great source of information and opinions, but our place is not as a forum but as a scientific resource. To successfully grow the marine community we believe it’s crucial to have local knowledgeable resources on-hand to help guide new hobbyists through the initial set-up process – including selecting compatible livestock for the ecosystem – and to assist current hobbyists when problems arise. Currently, the only option is the local pet store, and they are a cottage industry competing with large corporations and layers of distribution. We are here to support your local pet store so they can better support you. We’ll do that by only supporting MAP pricing and by selling our products exclusively through your local pet store.

I saw Eric made a post and thought I send pics over. Surgery went real well. Seem to fix everything and now just have to recover from the surgery part. Thanks to everyone who has sent emails and text it means a lot. Matt

As most know Matt has been out for a few days with cervical spine surgery and we didn't realize the website went down during that period. (go figure) Sorry for the inconvenience and it is back up and working. Matt is doing great and will be back in the office in 2-3 weeks hopefully.

Black Friday along with an early Cyber Monday special!

With shipping limited due to the Thanksgiving holiday, we have decided to run the special through Sunday, Dec. 4th. This gives everyone a chance to enjoy the special.

Captive bred blue tangs are no longer a dream as Rising Tide Conservation just revealed that they had successfully bred this iconic fish in captivity.

Its been a little quiet here lately because of some big changes at Doctor Eco Systems. We moved our facility and are finally back up to full capacity. We are extremely glad the move is complete and look forward to growing and expanding even more. Thank you to all that helped with this massive undertaking. More to come.

If you have had a chance to purchase a bottle in the last month or so we hope you've notice big changes to our Doc's Eco live phyto and live pod bottles. We have added tigrios into the mix along with everything you have always received in a bottle of Doc's Eco Matter and increase our 100% Live Doc's Eco Bytes phyto to 6 flavors that now include Pavlova. The phyto is much darker and full flavored :)

A little hint - now that we have added tigrio pods to our bottles you will key in on them but using a light like displayed in the video you will see all the other pods and rotifers such as our tisbes. These are great for seeding your aquarium and keeping corals and fish such as wrasse and mandarins fed naturally.

We have been working hard over the last few months to make our live phyto stronger. Now we are proud to show off the comparison after a few tweaks to our growing methods. As always this is 100% live phytoplankton that we used to feed our pod systems and is the perfect all natural food for your aquarium.

Last one I promise, we were playing with juvenile sea lions in the Sea of Cortez. Nature at it's best.

I just returned from an amazing trip to the Sea of Cortez. This is a mother Gray Whale with her newly born calf. She is still assisting her baby to the surface to breathe but clearly directed her to our boat. Gray Whales have been on the extinction list twice, once in 1910 and again in 1950. They resurfaced in 1970 and now are protected. Enjoy

Just for fun we wanted to share one of our test tanks. Our large green carpet who is normally 2 feet across has decided to flip over a flower pot and snuggle his way in. He has been like this for over 2 weeks. Hope everyone enjoyed the holidays.
