Maintenance
Sit back and relax as you drift away into your aquarium. Our services allow you to enjoy your tank while leaving all of the maintenance and upkeep to us. Absolutely everything is taken care of. Our aquariums are professionally installed for you, and come complete with everything from the tank, decorations, equipment, fish… even the food. We set up automatic feeders to feed your fish (unless you prefer to do it yourself), and put the tank’s lighting on timers so you don’t have to do a thing. Our professional staff will visit your location either weekly or biweekly to change and clean the filters, aquarium glass, change the water and check well being of your livestock. Keys Aquatics also adds and replaces all the fish and critters as needed, to ensure your tank looks as good as the day it was installed. Our entire maintenance service is included in all of our monthly plans. A healthy, attractive and quiet aquarium is accomplished through equipment, design, understanding creature compatibility and performing a set of routine cleaning tasks that will consistently maintain the aquariums water chemistry within normal parameters. In addition, an ongoing evaluation of equipment and aquarium performance is necessary so the aquarist has a chance to intervene and mitigate, or prevent any issues with your aquarium.
