We returned to Michigan last week to wrap up our final two local Aqua Box projects.

Watching both families gaze at their new systems in awe makes everything we do worth it. We look forward to continuing our lifelong relationships with all of our local clients.

Huge thanks to our clients for hanging in there through our transition to Tenji Aquarium Design + Build!

As founder and owner of Aqua Box, I am always looking to collaborate with other companies that consistently put their best foot forward when it comes to keeping animals thriving and instilling conservation.

I am incredibly excited to announce that we have moved to the west coast to join the finest aquarium team in the world, Tenji Aquarium Design + Build.

We will continue to share a few remaining Aqua Box projects on this page, however, be sure to like the Tenji page linked above to watch our future stunning projects come to fruition.

We could not be more excited for what lies ahead, thanks to everyone for your amazing support!

We are very excited to announce that Austin Lefevre will be joining the Tenji team and will be relocating to the Monterey area in November 2017. He will accompany the rest of our West Coast team in our new Carmel, CA, showroom space (more on that big announcement in the very near future!).

As founder and owner of AquaBox, Austin brings with him many years of experience in the aquarium industry. He is known for building immaculate aquarium systems, and is recognized throughout the industry for his knowledge and understanding of marine fish breeding, care and quarantine practices.

We can’t wait for Austin to start work. Great things are on the horizon!

We recently completed this life-support revamp of an existing 160-gallon African cichlid aquarium.

The new life support boasts six seven inch filter socks, a moving bio-bed, and a seventy-one-inch long ultraviolet sterilizer which will keep the display sparkling at all times in this beautiful home.

We have a new article up on Reef2Reef exploring the benefits of captive breeding AND wild caught fishes!

Check out the article and be sure to share your thoughts in the following thread.
