name: long-snouted pipefish (doryichthys boaja)
max size: up to 8 inches
water parameters: pH 6.5-7.5, temperature 75-82ยฐF, soft to moderately hard water; prefers very clean, well-oxygenated freshwater
diet: carnivorous โ requires small live foods such as baby brine shrimp, daphnia, cyclops, copepods, and mosquito larvae; rarely accepts prepared foods
temperament: very peaceful and shy; easily stressed and should not be housed with aggressive or fast-feeding fish
tank setup: mature, well-planted aquarium with gentle flow and plenty of cover such as plants, roots, and driftwood; stable water quality is critical
compatibility: best kept in species-only tanks or with very small, calm fish like micro rasboras; avoid boisterous community fish
behavior: slow-moving and deliberate; often hovers near plants and decor while hunting tiny prey using its long tubular snout
fun fact: doryichthys boaja is one of the few true freshwater pipefish species, and like seahorses, the male carries the eggs in a brood pouch until they hatch
Perhaps the best store on island to get freshwater fish. They have a huge variety, including higher end freshwater fish (discus, puffers, flowerhorns , oddballs, ect) Iโve stocked a few tanks with their fish. They quarantine well and keep it real on how their fish are doing in shop.

Had a great experience here. I was looking for a unicorn/alicorn betta and spoke with the owner, Josh, about it. I ended up using his fish importing services to import a fish from Jakarta, and he brought in a few more white opaque or unicorn type half moon bettas too, to add to the variety in store. I got a sneak peak of the store while it was shut down for one week for a proper quarantine of its new fish. The owner knows his fish and keeps them healthy. A very different experience from a Petco or PetSmart! A Petco employee even recommended I go here for more unique betta fish. Note that they carry other types of fish too, plus Aquatic plants and some aquarium equipment. Pictured are some of the giant bettas, the alicorn betta, and i believe a beautiful ram.

Wonderful shop with lots of variety. Has the most unique selection of fish on the island, and at a reasonable price! Staff is friendly and very helpful when we have questions or concerns. Love coming here and seeing the jokes around the store. Also, Vinnie!

The owner, Josh, is not just knowledgeable about the fish, but also plants and tank issues. I am new to fish tanks and he has been extremely helpful in answering my questions and offering suggestions to make my experience easier. Parking is a bit tricky, but certainly worth it.

They have rare plants you can't find at most places. Got lucky we got a few; my husband is happy. This is one of his favorite places. They get pretty busy, so be patient. The staff are very helpful.
