Healthy Fish Starts at the Source
Healthy fish start with the source! At Elmer’s Aquarium we have built strong relationships with each of our suppliers for over 55 years and we continue to see enhanced quality of the fish that we receive. Each week, our buying manager places orders from reputable Florida fish farms in the Tampa area which are then flown to us on a weekly basis, along with some local suppliers right here in Pennsylvania!
The fish we receive are temperature controlled on their trip to our store and are put away with care and efficiency. If you have any questions about our suppliers, please send us an email at contactelmers@gmail.com for more information.
Fish Care in Our Store
Once the fish arrive from our suppliers, they are immediately acclimated to our system by our dedicated team that ensure each and every fish is happy in their temporary tanks before they find their forever home! Our team at Elmer’s Aquarium follows through daily on maintenance, regular water changes, and testing water chemistry. Fish that require special treatment when they arrive from their journey are isolated and treated until they are well again. Our professional staff performs multiple checks daily in our show-room, assessing the animals’ overall health and vigor. We do our utmost best to ensure fish that are ill do not leave our care.
Our in-store drip system uses multiple filtration zones and ultraviolet sterilizers to keep our water at its finest. Our fish receive fish high quality food such as TetraPro Crisps and frozen mysis shrimp. If you have any questions about the care we provide for our fish please feel free to give us a call at 412-372-6535 or an email at contactelmers@gmail.com
