Fun Fact: Rotala Florida is highly sought after for its unusual coloration, displaying shades of pink, orange, red, and even purple depending on lighting intensity, nutrient levels, and CO2 availability. It is considered one of the most colorful Rotala varieties in the aquarium hobby.
Appearance: This plant produces slightly broader, oval-shaped leaves compared to many other Rotala species. Under optimal conditions, the foliage develops vibrant pink to reddish-purple hues, making it an eye-catching addition to planted aquariums.
Aquarium Use: Best used as a background accent plant or planted in dense groups to create a colorful focal point. Its unique coloration contrasts beautifully with green stem plants and carpeting species.
Propagation: Easily propagated through stem cuttings. Trimmed tops can be replanted into the substrate, while the remaining stems will often produce multiple side shoots, resulting in a fuller appearance.
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) Iβve 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.
