Say hello to our newest addition!! 🐢😍

Russian tortoises love to dig little tunnels and don’t grow super huge unlike some tortoises! These guys max out around 10 inches and can live over 50 years

Did you know most tortoises have 5 toes but Russian tortoises only have 4 on their front feet that help them dig (they act like little shovels)

Only at our ridgemont location as of right now ! (585)225-8700

Come on in and turn that glass box into an ocean !

Some corals actually consume nutrients in the water and help keep the tank clean ! Always do the research on the specific coral your intreated in before buying, not all corals need the same care . Corals are also living creatures ! Each polyp has a mouth and a stomach their diet varies from microscopic zooplankton to small fish !

Stop on today at our ridgemont location and check them out !🪸🫧

Despite the intimidating appearance he is not venomous! These guys get their name from the vinegar like spray they have as a defense mechanism! Native to the southwestern United States and Mexico !

Despite the cute name “Pixy frogs” these frogs are an impressive amphibian that can grow up to 10 inches and can weigh 4 pounds !

Arizona blonde tarantulas are beginner friendly desert species known to be a pretty hardy species and are more known for the beautiful golden - tan coloration !

Baby Bearded Dragon alert !
These tiny dragons won’t stay tiny for long ! Beardies grow up to 20 inches from head to tail and will need a 4x2x2 once adults ! Bearded dragons are known to be one of the most social lizards but with that being said all have their own temperaments and some like to be handled more than others ! Make sure you have both uvb and a heat light for these guys !

Say hello to our newest Display tank!😍🐟
12 of our prettiest female bettas (more coming soon) housed in a 45 gallon with tons of live plants, amano shrimp, and panda garra!🫧🐠
Did you know not all bettas need to be kept alone? This is called a betta sorority and is best done in tanks 40 gallons or more. Groups of 8 or more are ideal to minimize aggression. That said, all bettas are unique so be cautious when trying to house them together. (Please do not try this with male bettas as they are a lot more aggressive! )

Strawberry rasboras are the fish in the video! A peaceful, brightly colored fish that’ll fit perfectly in your nano aquarium. They do best when kept in large schools of 8 or more!

Livebearer fish restock! Tons of beautiful male guppies, female guppies, and mollys this week ! Come on down and check them out for yourself !🐠😊

Congo tetras (fish in the second video ) have scales that reflect a rainbow shimmer depending on the way the light hits them! Congo tetras are native to slow moving rivers or streams.

Red eye tetras have striking red eyes and shiny silver body’s! Peaceful fish that love to school .

Female bettas are the last video! Did you know not all bettas need to be kept alone? Advanced hobbyists can actually keep female bettas together. This is called a betta sorority and is best done in tanks 40 gallons or more. Groups of 8 or more are ideal to minimize aggression. That said, all bettas are unique so be cautious when trying to house them together. (Please do not try this with male bettas as they are a lot more aggressive! )
