Frequently asked questions.

What types of aquariums do you design and maintain?

We work with a wide range of systems including freshwater planted aquascapes, African cichlid displays, nano reefs, and large reef aquariums if you can dream it we can build it. From plug and play commercial systems to full custom built in. Every system is designed for long-term stability, quiet operation, and aesthetic impact.

Do you offer ongoing maintenance?

Yes. We provide routine aquarium maintenance for homes, businesses, healthcare environments, and design-firm clients. Maintenance includes water testing, livestock health checks, equipment care, algae management, dosing, with a focus on overall system stability to keep your tank thriving and beautiful.

How much does a custom aquarium cost?

Pricing varies based on size, complexity, equipment, livestock, and installation requirements. During your free consultation, we’ll assess your space, learn your vision, and provide a clear, tailored estimate for design, installation, and ongoing care.

Do you work with architects and interior designers?

Yes. We frequently collaborate with architects and interior designers to integrate aquariums seamlessly into residential and commercial projects. Whether it’s a built-in feature, a custom wall installation, or a statement piece for a lobby or office, we ensure the system aligns perfectly with the overall design vision.

What Areas Do You Serve?

We currently serve Colorado Springs, Monument, and the Front Range region. For specialty builds and collaborations, we also take on select projects throughout Colorado. If you have a unique vision outside this area, reach out — we’re happy to discuss accommodations.

How Long Does the Design & Installation Process Take?

Project timelines vary based on size, complexity, equipment selection, and any architectural coordination. Most residential systems are designed within 1–2 weeks and installed within 2–4 weeks after equipment arrives. Commercial or built-in installations may take longer depending on construction schedules. During your consultation, we’ll provide a clear timeline tailored to your project.

Can You Maintain a System You Didn’t Install?

Absolutely. Whether your aquarium is newly set up or has been running for years, we can take over routine maintenance, stabilize water chemistry, improve aesthetics, and make recommendations for long-term reliability. Our goal is to elevate any system to its highest potential.

Do You Help With Livestock Selection?

Yes. We curate livestock based on your goals, tank size, and long-term sustainability. Whether you want a calm freshwater display, a vibrant reef, or a species-specific showcase, we ensure every fish, coral, or plant is compatible, healthy, and ethically sourced.

Do You Offer Aquarium Moving Services?

We don’t perform full aquarium moves. However, we do offer post-move setup and stabilization services. If you’re relocating a system, we can handle the reassembly, livestock acclimation, aquascaping, and water chemistry stabilization to ensure everything settles safely and looks its best.
