Maintenance and Services

Almost half of our regularly serviced clients had their aquarium installed and serviced by another company or individual.
These clients made the switch and are now enjoying their aquarium with our outstanding maintenance programs.
We want to keep our clients for life and we conduct the maintenance with that in mind. It is in our best interest to keep
your aquarium as beautiful and as healthy as possible.

We are not only concerned with the appearance of the aquarium but also with its health and stability.
Reef aquariums are especially sensitive ecosystems and we want to make sure they are thriving and are in optimal condition.
The frequency of maintenance visits vary depending on the client’s level of involvement, the number of fish, and the sophistication
of the setup. Whatever the factors, we will be flexible with the hours and arrange for a schedule to fit your needs.

In most cases, service visits include: Water testing, Water change, Algae removal, Panel cleaning, Evaporation-water addition,
Filter and pump servicing, Addition of supplements, Evaluation of the animals’ health, Delivery of live animals and supplies

Note: Be wary of the flat monthly service fee. It is common for companies to arrange an attractively priced monthly flat service fee for maintenance.
This is usually abused by the provider and typically leads to under-stocked aquariums, cheap and unattractive fish, sick fish, low-end equipment, and other frequent problems.

FAQs


Does Oceans Aquarium have a minimum or maximum aquarium size for servicing?

No. We service tanks as small as 10 gallons and as large as several thousand gallons.

Does Oceans Aquarium service aquariums other than saltwater \ reef tanks?

No. We do not work with fresh water tanks or ponds.

Why do the number of visits vary? Don’t all aquariums require a similar schedule?

The visits vary because there are many variables that contribute to the condition and upkeep of the aquarium.
For example, a 100 gallon aquarium housing 5 fish requires less maintenance than a 100 gallon aquarium with 20 fish.
Also, a customer who is able to perform minor tasks occasionally will require fewer visits than a customer who want to
perform no tasks at all. These are just a couple of examples; there are other factors as well that would be relevant.

How long is a service visit?

Although it could vary, our goal is be in and out within an hour.
We work with our customers to achieve this so that the service remains affordable
