🐟🔥 FRESH FROM THE BREEDER — NEW ARRIVALS! 🔥🐟

We've got some exciting new additions at River & Root Aquatics this weekend, and they're all LOCALLY BRED! 🌿

We're proud to support local breeders while bringing our customers healthy, quality freshwater fish!

🐠 NEW ARRIVALS:

🌿 Elassoma evergladei (Everglades Pygmy Sunfish) — A fascinating native species with incredible personality! These tiny predators are perfect for species-focused, heavily planted aquariums. Males develop beautiful coloration during breeding displays.

🐼 Sterbai Corydoras — Beautiful, peaceful bottom dwellers with distinctive spotted patterns and bright orange pectoral fins. An excellent addition to community aquariums!

🐟 Corydoras napoensis — A unique and less commonly encountered Corydoras species! Perfect for hobbyists looking for something a little different.

🧡 Orange Venezuelan Corydoras — Vibrant orange coloration, active personalities, and all the charm that makes Corydoras a favorite among aquarists!

⭐ WHY BUY LOCALLY BRED?

✅ Raised in local aquarium conditions
✅ Support local breeders and the hobby
