How It Works

A straightforward process from first contact to ongoing service.

1

Initial System Review

We evaluate your saltwater system — equipment, water parameters, livestock, and any existing issues — to understand what your tank needs and establish a maintenance baseline.

2

Water Chemistry Testing

Every visit starts with a full parameter test. We check salinity, pH, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, and additional parameters for reef systems before touching anything.

3

Water Change & Cleaning

We perform a partial water change with properly mixed, temperature-matched saltwater, clean the glass, and remove algae from rock and substrate.

4

Equipment Maintenance

We clean and adjust the protein skimmer, inspect powerheads, check the return pump, and service the sump or refugium as needed.

5

Report & Follow-Up

You receive a written service report after every visit. Active clients can reach us between visits for questions or emergencies.
