We aim to provide our friends and family with the best critters and creatures possible.
About me,
I am a proud fourth-generation aquarist. My great-grandmother raised koi, my grandmother cared for koi and goldfish, my uncle nurtured guppies, goldfish, bettas, and shrimps, and I now keep rice fish, bettas, goldfish, shrimps, isopods, and live foods. For generations, fish keeping has been our family's sanctuary. I'm thrilled to finally share my beloved critters and creatures with people who will cherish them with the care and compassion they deserve.
My professional background includes industrial design, illustration, education, and vocational nursing.
