The dangers of overfeeding your fish



Overfeeding is the major cause of fish loss. Overfeeding results in the accumulation of waste due to uneaten food and increased amounts of waste produced by the fish eating more than they really need.

Overfeeding fish is so easy to do. First, we forget how small they are: our appetites are much bigger than their stomachs! Second, feeding is one of the only ways we can interact with the fish, so we tend to do it too often. Third, fish quickly learn that our approach often means food is on the way. They come to the front and top of the tank, appearing eager and hungry. Don't be tempted to think this is an indication that they are famished and need food immediately. Overfeeding is definitely too much of a good thing, and can lead to serious consequences.

To avoid overfeeding your fish you need to set a schedule and make sure everyone in the family sticks to that schedule.  Also make sure you are feeding the right food for the fish you have.  Finally make sure any fish sitters know the dangers of overfeeding and stick to your schedule.  If you think you have overfeed your fish, you may want to call Deep Sea Aquarium Maintenance to come clean your aquarium.

Aquarium chiller problems? Don't let your fish cook in this heat wave - Aquarium Service


 Today we are replacing a Current USA 1 HP chiller on a 500 gallon saltwater aquarium in Huntington Beach, CA.  The thermostat on the Current Chiller stopped working and the manufacture stopped making that product so we decided to put in a new Aqua Euro 1 HP Chiller to keep the fish cool.


 This is Patrick the owner of Deep Sea Aquarium Maintenance working on the plumbing for the chiller.

Here Patrick is cutting the plumbing of the old chiller and getting ready to install the new Aqua Euro 1HP chiller.


With few new pvc elbows and some glue the new Aqua Euro 1HP chiller is set up and ready to start cooling down the aquarium.


Here is a picture of the 500 gallon saltwater aquarium we replaced the chiller on.  The fishes are now happy and swimming around in their cool home.  If you have a problem with the temperature in your aquarium.  Don't risk loosing your expensive fish or corals.

Custom Jellyfish Aquariums for your home or office



Deep Sea Aquarium Maintenance works with one of the largest custom Jellyfish aquarium manufactures in the country.  They have supplied some of the most elaborate Moon Jellyfish Aquariums in the world.  Some of their clients are LAX Nightclub-Hollywood CA, Silverton Casino-Las Vegas NV, and Horniman Museum-England.

One of our employee’s has worked at both the Long Beach Aquarium and Cabrillo’s Jellyfish lab.  He has several years experience with keeping Moon Jellyfish in the aquarium and wrote several articles about keeping Moon Jellyfish for various aquarium websites.

One of the biggest challenges of keeping Moon Jellyfish in the Aquarium is their short life span and they are extremely hard to get.  You will not find Moon Jellyfish at your local fish store.  DSAM has several ways to ensure your Moon Jellyfish aquarium is always fully stocked with Jellyfish.  First we have an account at the only commercial Moon Jellyfish hatchery in the USA.   Second if the Jellyfish aquarium is in public view and used for education we can receive Moon Jellyfish from Cabrillo or the Long Beach Aquarium.  Finally DSAM employs a Marine Biologist who can collect wild Moon Jellyfish from off the coast of Southern California.  For more information or to receive a free estimate for your custom Jellyfish aquarium call Deep Sea Aquarium Maintenance at 562 477-2219

How to keep Seahorses in the Aquarium








In nature most seahorses are found in the lagoons and grass flats inside the reef. Because of this environment, seahorses may encounter larger variations in water temperature and salinity. Seahorses may adapt to a wider range of water conditions than the reef fish commonly kept in aquariums.


Seahorses should not be kept with other fish as tankmates. This is due to the fact that they cannot compete with the fast moving fish for food. They are best kept in a small (10-20 gallon) aquarium by themselves.

With the right aquarium set-up, proper feeding and care, seahorses may live for many years. Average age for many of the tropical seahorses is about 4-6 years. They will reach sexual maturity as early as 4 months, and pairs will readily spawn in aquariums. Seahorse reproduction is well known for having the male give birth to live young. Fertilization actually takes place in the female and then she passes the fertile eggs into the male pouch where they develop for two to four weeks, and are eventually released. Typically 50 to 150 juveniles may be born over the course of many hours.

Recently all Seahorses were placed on the Appendix II list of endangered species by CITES (Convention for the International Trade in Endangered Species). This severely restricts the legal import and export of seahorses

Deep Sea Aquarium Maintenance carries only tank raised seahorses and will deliver them to your home.  We also specialize in complete seahorse aquarium set-ups for your home or office.  Call 562 477-2219 for a free estimate.
