Happy Saturday, Fish Fans! 🐠💕

This hot weather is good for a lot of things, but most importantly... it's good for our pond plants. Come see what's in bloom and add some color to your pond.

We're open daily 10-5. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Happy Wednesday, Fish Fans! 🐠💕

According to our Sandra Boynton calendar (the most reputable source there is), today is Guinea Pig Appreciation Day!

Here at Emmons, we appreciate our guinea pigs daily, but today is extra special. Stop in today or any day between 10-5 and give these adorable fuzzballs some love.

We look forward to seeing you soon!

Howdy, Fish Fans! 🐠💕 If you've followed the page for awhile, you know that around this time of year, the posts get a little mushy.

Thirteen gets a bad rep for being unlucky. However, when it comes to 13 years of working with the team here at Emmons, I'd say it's pretty lucky.

You don't find a place like this just anywhere, especially not when little pet stores get choked out by big name companies. Emmons is the little fish store that could (ever since the mid 1960's), thanks to a group of hardworking knowledgeable folks who bring just as much heart as experience to the table.

All of you get the benefits of their friendly fish wisdom anytime you pop in (we're open 10-5 daily 😉), but I'm kind of spoiled and get to experience it full time.

We know how much you love to come visit our epic flowerhorn cichlid... but he'll be attending cookouts and fireworks shows all day and won't be available for your adoration. I guess we'll just have to close the store today for July 4th. 😅

Don't you worry though... we'll be back to our normal 10-5 hours starting Saturday, July 5th. We hope you have a fun, safe holiday, Fish Fans 🐠💕

July is just around the corner, Fish Fans! 🐠💕

Summer has certainly made its presence known and next week will be full of fun and fireworks. Our pond yard is blooming so come in and get your pond looking lively for your 4th of July celebrations.

We are open every day from 10-5 with the exception of Friday, July 4th when we will be CLOSED for the holiday. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Good evening, Fish Fans 🐠💕

This one's a little different than your regularly scheduled programming: we need your help finding a vehicle for a friend.

Looking for a reliable around town car, preferably with all wheel drive. Price range $2-4k. If you can keep your feelers out, we'd really appreciate it. Feel free to shoot us a message here if you have any leads. Thanks in advance!

❗️UPDATE: Steve's liver is okay, too. We're still getting to the bottom of this hack. We promise we'd inform you here if anything major happened to our team.

Good evening, Fish Fans! 🐠💕

Just a heads up, Steve's email got hacked, so please disregard any strange correspondence you may receive. The problem should be resolved now, but we promise you that he is fine and none of his femurs are broken 😅

UPDATE: Thank you for all your interest! We are in the interview process now, so we should be all set. I will repost this if the need arises. All the best!

STILL LOOKING FOR A PART-TIME BOOK KEEPER

We need someone with a strong knowledge of Quickbooks for managing business account information, etc.

Not a huge time commitment: a few hours weekly or every other week in person at our store

It looks like it's going to be a beautiful Memorial Day, Fish Fans! 🐠💕

Happy Thursday, Fish Fans! 🐠💕

The tiny turtle that has taken up residence in our pond yard wanted to remind you that we are open our normal 10-5 hours through the rest of this week and all weekend, but CLOSED Monday 5/26 for Memorial Day.

While the tiny turtle is not for sale, he would like to point out that our yard is full of plants to brighten up your pond and tropical plants should be here within the next couple weeks. We will also be getting a new batch of koi and goldfish for the weekend.

Lots of exciting stuff. Come on down and check it out. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Happy Wednesday, Fish Fans! 🐠💕

The calendar may say that spring begins at the Vernal Equinox, but we personally don't believe it's o-FISH-al until we get our first round of koi and goldfish in stock.

Therefore, without further ado, happy spring! We're open daily 10-5. We look forward to seeing you soon 😎
