Happy Friday!

Something new an exciting for bug lovers (and reptile keepers) coming to Fishtery today!
Maybe we should change our name to Fishtery and Friends 🤣

Any guesses?

Today is the match off between Mexico and South Korea! ⚽️

Last week we introduced you to the Axolotl from Mexico.

Today meet the Gourami from South Korea!

These guys are mouth breeders and are slow moving. They’re best kept with similar sized fish that aren’t too nippy or active like larger tetras and peaceful barbs.

We are open today until Sunday 1-7pm so come on by!

Happy Fish Friday!

🚨 FISH SALE ALERT! 🚨

🐟 50% OFF Convict Cichlids 🐟

Now through Sunday (while supplies last), all Convict Cichlids are HALF OFF!

These guys are hardy, active fish that do well in pairs in 30+ gallon tanks.

They’re a bit aggressive so best to keep with other aggressive fish such as Firemouth Cichlids or bottom dwellers like medium to large plecos.

Did you know:

Their black-and-white stripes resemble old prison uniforms, which is how they got their name!

We’re open all weekend from 1-7 so be sure to stop by!

Let the games begin!

The World Cup starts today with Mexico vs South Africa!

Did you know axolotls originate from Mexico? They were exclusive to their rivers and lakes. Axolotls are also neotenic which means they retain their larval features their whole life. Tin rare conditions, like exposed to chemicals or large amount of stress, they actually metamorphosis!

Which team are you rooting for?

Check out these BEAUTIFUL Neon Tetras we received in store on Wednesday.

They’re eye catching schooling fish (thrive in schools of 6+) and are a great addition for non-aggressive tanks!

Have you ever kept Neon Tetras?

Did you know we do FREE water tests?
Just bring a container of water into the store and we can have the results for you in 15 minutes!

Photo featured is our new Mystery Snails we just received yesterday. They love blanched veggies like cucumber and zucchini as well as algae wafers.

They’re adorable to watch exploring the tank especially when they’re munching on their calcium tabs!

Do you have any mystery snails? Share your tank photos in the comments we would love to see!!
