We discovered this gem a year ago and we were finally ready to invest in our home aquatic ecosystem! My seven-year-old connected with the incredible Ian, and we’ve spent countless hours at the warehouse, being inspired and educated by him!

Don’t miss out—you won’t find them easily, and you definitely won’t find them at this price!

They also delivered the tank and stand which the other stores would not offer.

She never seems to buckle under pressure, when tackling the weekend rushes. Makes each customer feel prioritized when checking out. Even seen her manage to ring customers out with both the main register AND the little handheld device, simultaneously!! Mad skills. Love her personality and se…
