Aquariums tell stories that everyone interprets differently; what’s your story?

Tensions over Kenilworth's CoreWeave data center boiled over this week after a Kean University environmental justice expert warned the Mayor and Council that powering the project will significantly worsen air pollution already linked to cancer and heart disease in the area. ⬇️

September is kicking off with a fresh round of arrivals, and there’s a little bit of everything this week!

🦐 Freshwater Inverts are loaded back up with some awesome shrimp, including Red Fancy Tigers, Purple Galaxy Tigers, Pure Red Lines, Pure Black Lines, Bloody Marys, Green Jades, Orange Sunkists and more — plus Thai Micro Crabs!

🪸 Saltwater got a nice coral refresh with Bounce Ricordea, Purple Leptastrea, Blastomussa, Rainbow Montipora, Meteor Shower Cyphastrea, Aussie Green Tip Torch, Rainbow Goni, Neon Green Goni and plenty more.

🐟 And of course, we’ve got fresh freshwater fish arrivals in the shop as well!

⭐ Our PickFish of the Week:
On the freshwater side, Russ went with one of the coolest oddballs in the hobby — the Indian Mud Moray Eel (Gymnothorax tile). Often sold as a “freshwater” moray, this species actually requires brackish conditions for proper long-term care, so make sure you know what you’re getting into with this one!

🌊 For saltwater, Kevin picked the absolutely gorgeous — and absolutely attitude-filled — Undulated Triggerfish (Balistapus undulatus). Beautiful, intelligent, aggressive, and apparently not above throwing rocks and shells at Kevin while he cleans the tank. 😂

As always, these graphics are just a look at some of what came in. Check out the full updated stock list at PickFishPets.com or stop in and see everything in person!

New This Week at PicKFish Pets!

Another week means another incredible lineup of freshwater fish, shrimp, corals, and saltwater arrivals that have completed quarantine and are ready for their forever aquariums!

🌟 This Week’s PicKFish of the Week:

💚 Freshwater: Abei Pufferfish (Pao abei)
One of the hobby’s best-kept secrets, the Abei Puffer packs an unbelievable amount of personality into a small package. Curious, intelligent, and always interacting with its surroundings. (And yes... I’ll admit I’m a little biased when it comes to puffers! 😄)

💙 Saltwater: Blue Ribbon Eel (Rhinomuraena quaesita)
Few marine fish are as mesmerizing as the Blue Ribbon Eel. Their graceful, ribbon-like swimming, brilliant electric-blue coloration, and unique appearance make them one of the most iconic and unforgettable species in the saltwater hobby.

Whether you’re looking for colorful nano fish, rare shrimp, unique puffers, stunning reef livestock, or your next showpiece specimen, we’ve got something new waiting for you this week.

📍 Stop by the shop or browse our full stock list online at PickFishPets.com.

New arrivals have landed at PicKFish Pets!

Another week means another wave of freshwater fish, shrimp, and saltwater arrivals that have completed quarantine and are now ready for their forever aquariums.

🌿 This week Our PicKFish of the Week selections are picked by Anthony and Russ:

⭐ Freshwater: Atabapo Altum Angelfish (Pterophyllum altum)
🌊 Saltwater: Koran Angelfish (Pomacanthus semicirculatus)

These are two species that truly stand out. The Atabapo Altum is one of the most elegant freshwater angelfish available, prized for its incredible height, graceful fins, and commanding presence. On the saltwater side, the Koran Angelfish is famous for its remarkable transformation from a boldly patterned juvenile into a breathtaking adult—one of the most dramatic color changes in the marine hobby.

Whether you’re looking for rare showpieces, colorful community fish, freshwater shrimp, or new saltwater additions, there’s something for every aquarium this week.

Known for their intense metallic green and turquoise coloration, dark contrasting bodies, and wild-type appearance, Green Alien Bettas combine the bold colors of selectively bred Bettas with the sleek, athletic look of their wild ancestors.

Each fish is individually unique, with natural variations in color, pattern, and metallic coverage. Males typically develop more intense coloration and longer fins, while females generally have a more compact body shape and shorter finnage while still displaying the brilliant green and blue iridescence that makes Alien Bettas so desirable.

Green Alien Bettas are active, intelligent, and highly interactive fish that make excellent centerpiece fish for planted aquariums. They thrive in warm, clean, stable water with plenty of plants, hiding areas, and gentle water flow. Floating plants, botanicals, driftwood, and dense vegetation can help create a natural environment where their metallic coloration really stands out.

With their electric metallic coloration and distinctive wild-inspired appearance, Green Alien Bettas are an outstanding choice for Betta collectors and aquarists looking for something different from traditional domestic Betta varieties. This male and female pair offers the opportunity to enjoy both sexes of this striking variety and may also be suitable for a carefully planned breeding project by experienced Betta keepers.

Add a Male & Female Green Alien Betta Pair to your collection and experience one of the most visually striking Betta varieties available in the freshwater aquarium hobby.
