🐠 Introducing Lake Effect Aquatics — Coming Soon to the Tawas Area!
Hey everyone! I wanted to throw this out there and see what kind of interest exists locally for a small home-based aquarium business with big plans.
I'm in the process of building Lake Effect Aquatics — starting from home with the goal of eventually opening a physical shop right here in the Tawas area. Here's what I'll be offering for now:
🖨️ 3D Printed Aquarium Goods
All prints are made in aquarium-safe PETG on a Bambu Labs A1 Combo. Currently printing caves and egg traps (see pictures!) with more designs coming. Custom print orders are welcome — if I can print it without it failing, I'll make it happen for you!
🦐 Sakura Red Cherry Shrimp
My colony is actively breeding right now. I expect to have Sakura Red Cherry Shrimp available within the next few months. These are great beginner shrimp and a beautiful addition to any tank!
🐟 Long Fin Golden Zebra Danios
Currently being raised out — expect availability within the next 6 months. These stunning long-finned beauties are hardy, active schooling fish perfect for community tanks.
🐠 Assorted Fancy Mollies
I have a beautiful variety breeding together including Balloon Mollies, Black Mollies, and Lyretail Calico Mollies. Expect colorful assorted fancy mollies available within the next couple of months!
If any of this interests you — whether it's shrimp, fish, or custom 3D printed aquarium pieces — drop a comment, send me a message, or follow along as Lake Effect Aquatics grows. I'd love to know what the local fish keeping community is looking for!
Local pickup in the Tawas area.
