This little one is always hiding when we are open (usually under the water dish). Which is a real shame, because it has a very striking pattern.

Just a teaser. These are NOT available yet, but sure were pretty when I turned on lights this morning. These are quarantining in our blackwater tank at the front of the store which is what is giving it this orange aura.

This was a smaller week for new fish, but next week is looking promising for stuff coming out of quarantine 🤞🤞

Plenty of mice, rats, small crickets, large crickets, mealworms, superworms, waxworms and dubia roaches

Pictured: lamp/red eye tetra. These love to school, have a bit of a heavier body for a tetra and I would not advise putting these with slower moving or flowy fin fish as they tend to get bored and go taste testing. 😬 But boy oh boy do they look sharp in a large school.

We had a busy evening last night. Customers from Springfield, Champaign, Windsor, Decatur, Gibson City and Bloomington (of course Clinton, too!). 🫶

Open 11-3 today (4/12)

Check out this mosaic plant. It's a type of ludwigia. Does well as a pond plant during the summer or in a less turbulent higher light aquarium. I just love the look of it- going to try and grow some in the ricefish tank. 😍
