Steve was extremely knowledgeable about aquariums. He’s worked in the industry for over 15 years, including large custom aquariums and even San Diego Zoo. I had a small 40 gallon tank that houses my redslider turtles. It needed a deep clean and relocation. He gave me additional ideas to improve my system. Overall he was thorough and patient during his visit and did an excellent job. I plan to have monthly service in the future.

So we ended up moving two 55+gal tanks, two pieces of furniture and two 29+ gal tanks from west Los Angeles to torrance. It was honestly alot of work but Aquarium Architects were far more than capable of handling the task. I am going to get some more work done by them. Because we discuss that, they also do tank design. Definitely looking forward to doing business with you again.
Ps. The fish love the new layout after the move!

I am incredibly pleased with Steve's work on my tank. He completely redesigned it (it's beautiful now) and introduced me to Cichlids, which are beautiful and fun fish. He is also incredibly knowledgeable about fish care and maintenance, and respectful of my space. Highly recommend.

From there we will set up regular service intervals and a plan to make any necessary adjustments to your aquatic system.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Most of our staff either has had or still does maintain personal water features of their own. Some have them have worked in import or warehouse facilities or pet stores where aquatic animal husbandry is at the center of focus.
