Marine Fish Supply
A & M Aquatics provides fully acclimated marine fish after 24-48 hours of recovery from shipping stress. Our collection methods prioritize quality, with commercial licenses ensuring sustainable sourcing from the Caribbean basin and beyond. Fish are accurately sized and guaranteed live arrival.
Invertebrate Distribution
We supply diverse invertebrates including electric flame scallops, hermit crabs, astrea snails, and emerald crabs. Each specimen undergoes rigorous handling to maintain health during transit, ensuring retailers receive vibrant, thriving organisms for aquariums.
Aquacultured Coral Sales
Our aquacultured corals are maricultured globally and placed in high-flow water systems post-shipment. This restores their pre-shipment condition, offering retailers 'what you see is what you get' consistency in color and health.

We offer both cured and uncured live rock hand-selected from the South Pacific. The rock is harvested to maintain ecological balance while providing essential biological filtration and habitat for marine aquariums.
