This Fire Cleaner Shrimp is checking for cavities.
They help fish by removing the access food, dead tissues, and parasites. These invertebrates are also helpful to Moray Eels! The eels will open their mouths for the shrimp to climb in to clean out all the crevasses and possible parasites. Some Fire Cleaner Shrimp like to be handfed on top of eating the extra food that falls to the bottom of your aquarium.
No new arrivals this week, but we still have tons of fish, corals, and invertebrates to choose from! All our previous arrivals are on our website below!

This is a Decorator Crab. They survive by taking objects such as anemones, corals, and sponges for camouflage. They use their Velcro-like bristles called setae to attach the objects to their upper shell . If you look closely, you can see his tiny eyeballs sticking out from all the décor.

It’s perfect weather outside for transportation!🛻

Fall is almost here and we are preparing all our tanks for the busy season. 🏃‍♀️🏃 We highly recommend getting some fish before the ice hits the roads, as winter in Minnesota seems to come without warning. ❄️ When you’re stuck inside on a cold winter day, nothing beats sitting and watching the fish dance around an aquarium. 😎
