Partners & Links

I noticed that I often find myself recommending the same things, and it is really helpful to have a page like this where I can easily share all those links in one place.

This is where you can see what I actually use to grow my plants, catch fish and run my tanks. I also added a few friends and businesses worth supporting, along with some affiliate links that help us out at no extra cost.

Vast Aquascaping

Aquascapes & Aquarium Service

Vast Aquascaping is the Service Business of my good friend and SAS President Luke Wang. Luke is both a true artist and a passionate aquarist. With an arts degree and years of experience working in a fish store and servicing aquariums, he has probably done more water changes than most of us will in a lifetime. He is also the only friend I know who owns multiple suction cups for moving giant tanks, so hit him up if you need help moving!

Hector’s Everything

Aquarium Fertilizer

Hector is a good friend and I take pride in being an early adopter of his fertilizer. He created one of the best all in one aquarium fertilizers out there, complete with dechlorinator and water stabilizers. If you like my plants, they have been grown with Hector’s fertilizer. You can find his products in stores all over California or at local events, often at the table right next to us.

Jonah’s Aquarium

My favorite Dipnet

As a kid, I always needed a new dipnet for every holiday. As an adult and a fan of US native fish, I discovered “The Perfect Dipnet.” Normally I’m not a fan of names this grandiose, but in this case it is completely accurate. You can customize the size, mesh, and color. It comes with a protective aluminum frame and they even offer spare netting, making it built to last.

They also happen to be one of the best suppliers of US native fish, so definitely check them out if you love native species as much as I do.
