Ocean Devotion

I started Ocean Devotion because I saw a serious lack of quarantined fish, that hurts your bottom line. The fish you buy may be sick and also bring disease to a healthy reef. Give OD a chance next time you decide to make a fish a new member of your reef.

The Wyld Zone

In an effort to bring sustainable aquaculture to understudied marine invertebrates, The Wyld Zone was created. With over 10 years hands on experience, we seek to provide previously obscure, but remarkably beneficial invertebrates to home aquariums across the US. Our invertebrates are studied and tested in multiple aquariums designed to simulate the conditions of many home reefs. This ensures we know how these organisms interact with your reef before they’re offered for sale.

Good morning, can I connect a UV sterilizer to my manifold and then tap back into my return line. Sump is in the basement so this is easier than running a line from the uv to the display.

Hi, I have a dogface pufferfish who suddenly stopped eating and hiding in the corner of the tank. We noticed that he started bloating, his belly turned black, and he keeps turning on his side like he’s in pain. We think he has an infection, but we have no idea what it is or how to help him; this has never happened before in the seven years we’ve had him. If someone knows what’s wrong, please help!
currently planning a flight at the end of the month to a place, far, far away. Looking at prospects and reconnecting with old friends.
