We quarantine all our fish for 2 weeks.

Quarantine Building

All of our fish are quarantined before sale in a totally separate building.

Fish arrive daily from all over the world

A Drip Acclimation Table

Water drips at a slow constant rate through the small bore pipes.  Each fish is placed in a separate small acrylic tank along with its shipping water and some water conditioner.  The small tanks are connected to a dripper pipe and allowed to acclimate for 12 hours. Each dripper table will accommodate 120 tanks. 

 

After dripping the fish are netted and placed in their individually filtered quarantine tanks.

They stay here for two weeks and receive a course of anti-parasite and anti-bacterial medication along with lots of food.
