A small, dedicated crew keeping marine life healthy from reef to tank. Everyone here knows every species in the catalog — by common name, Latin name, and origin.
A founder-diver and a systems architect. Between them, two decades of marine-life experience and the infrastructure to back it up.
Founder & Diver
Founded Tropical Fish International with a mission to deliver premium marine life directly from reef to tank. Personally leads sourcing partnerships and oversees the quality of every shipment before it leaves the facility.
The fish comes first — always. If it's not right, it doesn't ship.
Systems & Digital
Manages all digital infrastructure, the product catalog, invoicing systems, and online operations. Keeps technology running seamlessly so the team can focus on what matters — the fish.
Good systems are invisible. The fish are what the customer should notice.
Not values written for a website — operating principles that show up in the day-to-day.
If a species isn't ready, we don't ship it. The customer hears "next week" instead of bad news the day after delivery.
We pay our partners on time, in their currency, and we visit. Twenty years in, none have left.
If we can grow it, we grow it. Sustainability isn't a tag — it's the supply chain.
We don't grow past the size where one person can walk every tank, every morning, before coffee.
Whether you're a wholesale buyer, a retail customer, or just want to know more about our stock — we'd love to hear from you.
