Fun Fact: Tiger Frogbit is an eye-catching form of Frogbit known for the distinctive mottled or tiger-like markings that can develop across its floating leaves. This patterned foliage makes it especially attractive when viewed from above.
Appearance: Tiger Frogbit forms floating rosettes of rounded to oval green leaves with contrasting darker markings or mottling. Long, branching roots hang beneath the plant and can form an attractive underwater curtain.
Aquarium Use: Excellent for providing surface cover and shade while creating natural hiding areas for bettas, shrimp, fry, and other small fish. Its hanging roots also provide additional surface area for biofilm and microorganisms.
Propagation: Propagates naturally through runners that produce daughter rosettes. Once established, the daughter plants can be separated or allowed to spread across the aquarium surface.
Note: Keep the upper surfaces of the leaves relatively dry and away from constant filter splashing or heavy surface agitation. Regular thinning prevents Tiger Frogbit from completely covering the aquarium surface and excessively shading plants below.
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) I’ve 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.
