About
Splashy Fish

founded by hobbyist run with a passion

Splashy Fish, born in 2020, is a testament to the visionary journey of Nguyen Le, an enthusiast with over 10 years of expertise in freshwater aquariums, specialized aquascaping design, and the artful breeding of betta and guppies. What began as a personal hobby evolved into a thriving aquatic haven, shaped by a deep-seated commitment to quality and an unwavering passion for aquatic life.

Our Origin Story:

Before the inception of Splashy Fish, Nguyen Le immersed himself in the world of bettas and guppies, breeding these captivating species as a hobbyist. Selling to local customers and shipping to enthusiasts out-of-state, Nguyen covered some breeding costs, fueled by a determination to take his love for aquatics to the next level. In a bold move, he sold all his aquariums, initiating Splashy Fish as a side hustle, and marking the beginning of a remarkable journey.

Pandemic Pivots:

The turning point arrived with the onset of the pandemic, as people sought solace in the beauty of aquatic life while staying home. Seizing this opportunity, Nguyen transitioned from his corporate job to dedicate himself entirely to Splashy Fish. He personally designed the website, collaborating with local and international breeders to source the highest quality fish and aquarium plants.

From Garage to Grandeur:

What started in a humble garage with 10 aquariums of 10 gallons each blossomed into a 1000+ gallons aquarium store—a testament to our continuous growth. At Splashy Fish, each tank houses only one species of fish, ensuring a proper quarantine process, meticulous care, and preventing unwanted crossbreeding.

Our Mission:

Splashy Fish's mission is to provide you, our cherished customers, with more than just aquatic companions. We strive to impart proper knowledge, offering the highest quality live freshwater fish, freshwater shrimps, aquatic plants, premium fish foods, and the finest aquarium supplies and accessories. Our commitment is to keep your aquatic friends not just happy but thriving.

Educational Endeavors:

Navigate our knowledge blogs, spanning beginner guides for aquarium initiation to advanced care guides tailored for specific fish types. Our hope is that these resources empower you to create an ideal ecosystem, ensuring the happiness and well-being of your aquatic companions.

Future Horizons:

As Splashy Fish continues to evolve, we set our sights on new horizons. An exciting development is our YouTube channel, where we plan to showcase firsthand knowledge, connecting with you on a more personal level.

Global Expansion:

In 2022, we embarked on an ambitious journey, establishing a small farm overseas. This strategic move allows us to control our supply chain, particularly for popular species like betta fish, guppies, tetras, discus, and freshwater shrimp. This expansion reinforces our commitment to providing you with the highest quality aquatic specimens.

A Heartfelt Thank You:

To our loyal customers, we extend our sincere appreciation for being part of our small business journey. You are the heartbeat of Splashy Fish, and we are grateful for your role in the success and growth of our aquatic venture. Thank you for being an integral part of the Splashy Fish family.

Kuhli Loach

Beautiful and healthy loaches that are thriving in my tank a couple weeks in.

Growth Envy Protein Shrimp Food - My fish seem to enjoy them

I've only have a few shirmp so I have seen them eating the pellets yet, but my Corydoras like them a lot. In fact, I've seen all my fish nibbling on these pellets and one time or another.

Beautiful Fish!

Our fish arrived in great shape! He was feisty within an hour, swimming around his tank with a zest for life!!
We named him Casper, and he looks just like he did in the picture. We love him!!

little butterfies

They’re cute! They’re a bit shy but I only picked up 3 so that may be due to a smaller group size. They are doing well and are healthy though!

Guppy

They always good quality!!!

We Love the Cholla Wood

It floated for a week or so and then sunk to the bottom of the tank! It looks great in our tank. The fish seem to be happy with the wood as well.

Active and healthy!

I was able to select two young females, though larger adults were also available. They adjusted immediately to my cooler temperature tank and are thriving!

Hillstream loach

I got a hill stream loach to replace one that died when we moved. We have two in the tank and they are my favorite fish to watch. They remind me of stingrays. They move around even the tank and it’s fun to play find the loach. Sometimes they hang out together but most of the time they are separate.

The real deal

Purchasing them here is like pulling them off a tree … Nothing fake-processed-feeling like a mass-sold version… Highly recommend!

The fish arrived healthy and looked absolutely stunning in my tank. Highly recommend.

The guppies were healthy and colorful. Nguyen, the owner, took his time to explain all of my questions. Great service!!!

Beautiful and Unique Betta

Very happy with the purchase of my Premium Red Koi Galaxy Male Betta. The fish is healthy and a beautiful addition to my tank. It coexists well with 6 ember tetras in my 10G tank.

Amazing Betta, I am so happy

The most amazing betta, arrived healthy, and instantly went looking for food when I put it in my tank. I only can have one betta, but if I wanted another, I would buy it from Splashy Fish!

Discus

These discus are so so wonderful! :) They come to the front of the tank, they're very happy and healthy. We bought them a little over a week ago and they are so great. Highly recommend! We also bought some betta fish for our sorority here and they are also great!

happy and healthy

They are happy, very active a week later in two 10 gal dirted tanks @ 74 deg F. and doing well. They came wrapped in a wet paper towel in separate little plastic bags...I never saw shipping done this way before but it works well, and saves weight.

Amazing Quality Bettas

I ordered the 2 premium Bettas from Splashy fish recently and they are thriving. The owner was very cooperative with shipping my fishes at an opportune time after Hurricane Milton hit our area. Great experience...highly recommend Splashy Fish!

Seachem Prime Fresh and Saltwater Conditioner

Good

So i had the worker hunt me down a female hillstream which she did with no problem at all, I really appreciated it. The little one seems healthy, she wonders the quarentine tank for food which is a great sign, flashes a little but i know how picky some hillstreams are with water quality and bare bottoms. Overall the hillstream is healthy and the worker was super accommodating.

Great

I got a yellow and blue mystery and they are nice and healthy.

Quality fish and fast shipping

You do get what you pay for and my 2 Betta purchases from Splashy Fish can attest to that. Great experience and really awesome fish. Can't thank you enough.
