Select Aquatics - Tropical Fish - Livebearers

Select Aquatics

    Select Aquatics breeds affordable,
    quality specialty tropical fish for
    hobbyists and conservation research.
    Most are not often seen, and many
    are endangered or extinct in the
    wild. selectaquatics.com is also
    a one stop site for fishkeeping
    information.

    If you are keeping an aquarium,
    you have the opportunity to help
    preserve species that are about to
    go extinct in the wild. As well, due
    to increased export restrictions,
    many species are also at risk of
    disappearing from the hobby.
    The fish offered here are hardy,
    generally not difficult to care
    for, and may depend on
    hobbyists such as yourself to
    maintain their availability.

Select Aquatics of Erie, CO.

         Select Aquatics maintains a
         consistent collection of 20+
         species/lines (see Species
         Lineup) that are bred here
         and posted as available.
         If you do not see a desired
         species, or wish to see a
         new species offered, please

_________________________________

     Ordering new species you've never
     kept from someone you don't know
     with water different than yours can
     be scary. Some assurance that in
     6 months the fish will still be doing
     well would be ideal, particularly since
     many of these fish are rare or hard
     to obtain.

     From your first email to inquire about
     ordering until the moment they arrive,
     we will keep in close touch to answer
     any questions you may have so that
     you know exactly what you are getting,
     and precisely when they will be sent.
     Care information for each species is
     also provided Here.

     Postage is never overcharged, and
     extras are nearly always sent with
     carefully done, professional shipping.
     To help ensure they do well for you, a
     Care Guide is provided for each species
     from the link below. Be sure to check
     the updated comments at "What Do
     Customers Think of Select Aquatics"

    The Lateralis arrived in excellent health,
    and might I say they are the highest
    quality fish I've ever received! Great
    sizes, great coloring, great condition,
    absolutely splendid... Wrapping and
    insulation/heating were perfect. All in
    all the experience met my
    expectations, which were as high
    as they could be.
