About Discovery Aquatics


OUR PHILOSOPHY

Everytime you visit Discovery Aquatics we want you to learn something new. As your knowledge increases, so will your success. Rest assured, you will receive quality advice. We have years of experience and continuously research the latest in aquarium technology.

We do our part to help sustain the coral reefs. We order livestock that has a high survival rate in captivity. We also purchase a number of Aquacultured Corals and MAC Certified, Aquacultured and Tank-Raised Fish to reduce our environmental footprint. We do not purchase any livestock collected with cyanide.

Finally, we strive to exceed your expectations. Discovery Aquatics aims to provide superior customer service, quality products and truthful answers to your questions.

OUR APPROACH

We believe that what works for one person doesn’t always work for everyone, but there are some general guidelines that can increase your chances of success.
  • We prefer heavy protein skimming and shy away from bioballs and undergravel filters.
  • We think superior water quality begins with a Reverse Osmosis unit.
  • We believe high water flow can reduce detritus and promote coral growth.
  • We know food and nutrition plays a major role in fish and coral health.
