Introduction

From San Francisco to New York to San Diego and now back home in the Bay Area, I have 40 years of extensive experience working with aquariums and ponds. Diligent, thoughtful, clean, knowledgeable, and reliable, I'm happy to provide cleaning, regular maintenance, repairs or refurbishment, or designing and building a beautiful, thriving aquatic environment tailored to your wishes. Have a look at the photos of some of my past work for a small glimpse into the wide range of possibilities I can offer. With gratitude, Tony, The Art Aquatic

I was having a hard time troubleshooting an issue in my nano saltwater aquarium on my own so I decided to seek some expert help. Tony did not disappoint. I found him on Thumbtack and contacted him. He responded quickly and was very helpful. He answered all of my questions thoroughly and gave me great advice. Highly recommend.

I had a disaster of a neglected tank that was just not working no matter what I tried. Tony was able to crest something truly spectacular with what started as a nightmare. I could not recommend him enough for deep cleaning, tank design, and just a great source of knowledge in the industry!
