My Fish Raising Process
I am a retired Veteran living in Florida. I appreciate all types of fish and animals but I am especially fond of freshwater tropicals at this time. I am not a commercial fish farm. This is my retirement hobby to keep me busy and so I don't get board. I eat sleep and drink tropical fish and it has become my passion. My fish show it ,buy superior quality and the care I give them. I am not a business, I just sell fish to help pay for my hobby and conservation efforts. All fish are glass tank raised, with HOB filters and backup sponge filters in each tank. All tanks get a weekly water change and daily personal care. I have over ( 120 ) freshwater tanks, well over 1000 gallons of water with fish. The fish I am raising are as follows species: Cichlids: Convicts Cichlids (Central American)Livebearers: Goodieds: Including Ameca splendens, Z. tequila's and Xenotoca variatas, and also Least Killifish species Catfish: (BN Plecos and Cory Catfish) More about the fish I have for sale in the My Auctions category. Fish Room: My fish room is located in my garage and takes up half of the space. The other half is a work bench and tool storage area. This is one portion of my fish room. I started building it last year and it will never be complete. I am constantly changing, updating and upgrading everything about the way it functions, looks and operates. Whenever a problem arises, I research it and try to correct it as soon as I can, so as not too cause undue stress on my fish population. It may only affect one tank ,but might and most likely affects all tanks. With location in Zephyrhills, FL we can raise better fish with a controlled environment and less stress on the fish. We maintain intensive husbandry programs. The water supplies at our facilities are a spring fed municipal hard water source, carbon filtered and sometimes de-ionized. We provide our fish with 24 hrs. care, 12/12 lighting and daily and weekly water changes.

Feeding: All of our fish and fry are fed on a daily regimen of Ken's Fish Food Diets and Tertramin Flakes (Dr. Foster's Smith). All fish and fry diets are available online ordering directly through Ken's Fish www.kensfish.com or Dr. Foster's Smith.com
