Aquarium Maintenance - Oceanpro History

Oceanpro Aquatics, Inc. was once the industry leader with over four hundred service customers, thirty three marine biologists and / or very knowledgeable service technicians and a construction crew that built some of the most popular theme parks, malls, restaurants, and others.  Service or Construction by our company was always in extreme demand and we had to unfortunately turn down about 80% of our work at that just because of the demand.  However, this did allow us to cherry pick and find the very best customer base to work with.

Our main facilities have not done any construction or service since 1999 when we decided to become an exclusive Import / Export Wholesaler.  With the invent of selectively allowing into our company Authorized Distributors of our companies product line, we decided to pass over the demand for our service or construction division to these because only the best of the best are permitted to become Authorized Distributors of Oceanpro Aquatics, Inc. and we entrust their ability to provide such services professionally and dependably and I would highly recommend any of these which we endorse across the nation.  Find a Authorized Distributor who offers construction and service near you now (Click Here).


Aquarium Maintenance - Standards our distributors live by.

Keeping an aquarium isn't as easy as just cleaning off the glass of algae and doing a water change like so many service companies and pet shop employees do.  Here at Oceanpro Aquatics, Inc., our distributors have extremely high quality standards to which they abide by.  First off, wiping the algae off the glass doesn't kill it any more than pulling a weed out of your grass and throwing it back down into the soil, so why is that exactly what is done by everyone else?  While cleaning algae off the walls of your system, we utilize specialized equipment based on the size of your tank such as a commercial grade Vortex Micron Filter that is used by many pet shops to polish their water.  On larger systems, we utilize the Pentair Quad Service Cart with three micron filter systems and 40watts of Ultra Violate Sterilization to kill off and remove the algae from your tank, not let it fall back to the gravel bottom.  We are almost exclusive in this technology because of the cost of such equipment costing upward of $10,000!  This is just one of the reasons we are the nations leading professionals in the industry.  We don't skimp on our customers to save a dollar but instead believe if we provide the very best in service, we will be referred over and over again in addition to keeping our customers long term.

Water changes could be as simple as bucketing out and replacing your water with tap water, but we utilize a utility called a Python system to vacuum out all debris and detris from your gravel while leaving the beneficial bacteria in your gravel bed at the same time.  This removes the fish waste and natural fertilizers algae thrive on as well as provides excellent water conditions for your pets.  If we are working with a freshwater tank, Reverse Osmosis or RO water is used that has been deionized, Mechanically and Chemically treated for optimum replacement.  If we are working with a saltwater or reef systems, true ocean purified ocean water by Catalina Water is used to replace the specific gravity, salinity, trace elements and nutrients to the system by utilizing real ocean water.  In either case, vitamins, trace elements, dechlorinators, and regularly added beneficial bacterium and enzymes are added back to the system.

Chemistry is the next most important aspect.  Most Aquarium Service Companies only check your Nitrate and pH.  If not done on site, your water is brought back to our facility lab for a professional analysis consisting of numerous readings in order to get the whole picture of everything occurring in your system.  We inspect such items but not limited to Ammonia, Nitrite, Nitrate, pH, Redox, Copper, Dissolved Oxygen levels, CO2 levels, Salinity, Temperature Consistency, Conductivity, Specific Gravity, gH German Hardness, Calcium, Magnesium, Iodine, and other levels as is needed based on the level of service you've requested.

Tired of your tank looking the same all the time?  Never changes in appearance?  Ask about our "Décor Exchange Program"!  For a small additional fee, you'll never buy anymore corals, plants, or other aquarium décor.  On each service or per your contractual agreement from what you request in your service, we will bring you a fresh and new set of Corals and Décor at each service call.  This means not only will you come home to find an impressive tank, but also be happily surprised by the way it's appearance doesn't get boring as the features always change.  As Corals get brittle and break, plants get drab looking and faded.  We simply keep replacing them with brand new ones!  Your tank will always look like a brand new system and you'll continue to enjoy impressing your family and friends.

Did I mention contracts?  Yes I did.  Everything is always in writing so you are secure with our promises we make you.  But be assured that you are not obligated to any lengthy contract term.  We only ask that you use us for at least three (3) months at least once during each month to prove how valuable we can be to you and as an incentive, you give you a much better deal on your service rate than those paying hourly who keep us "On Call".  This gives us a fair amount of time to prove ourselves to you how good we really are and if we don't meet or exceed your expectations, you are on no additional commitment to continue on with us.  On the other hand, if you only want someone to come out once each three (3) months, we will be happy to accommodate.  We definitely do offer an on-call service.  Call for current prices and get a free personal quote over the phone.  I'll even pay for that!  Call toll-free (800) 722-0421 and ask for a qualified aquarium service representative or schedule an in-home consultation.

Other important aspects are that you are hiring experienced professionals that during each service call, inspect your fish and pets for over all health and 90% of the time, we will catch anything occurring before it becomes terminal.  We even have "ISOMED" (Isolation and Medication) Holding tanks at our facility so we can isolate a sick fish and help bring it back to health while keeping it from your other community and preventing the inevitability of having to expose all other tropical fish and pets to the disease.  Your Systems mechanical equipment is also completely inspected at every service and suggestions and work sheets are noted of all necessary replacements or repairs that might need to be addressed.  You won't have to worry about O-Rings getting old, cracking and leaking anymore, PVC leaks, Check valve failures, lubricant needs, and the often over looked Ultra Violate Sterilizer System and System Lighting bulb replacement which should be performed every 6-12 months.  All these things are brought to you at no extra charge other than installation charges if they apply.  Live Stock and Fish foods?  That's also brought to you too.  You'll never need to go to another pet shop again.  Our prices are also extremely discounted for our loyal and long term customers!

Call us today and see if you like what you hear.  We are So.Californias #1 referred Service Company and growing very quickly across the nation through our distributors.  We have numerous high profile references from services customers in the hundreds!  We sincerely hope you'll become part of our community and allow us to help provide professional service to cater your specific needs.   Find a Authorized Distributor who offers construction and service near you now (Click Here).
