Ask Me Anything!

Hello, fellow reefers!

I'm John Walker, the owner of Frags 2 Fishes, a local fish store (LFS) in Wilmington, DE, where we specialize in saltwater fish, corals, and aquarium supplies. As someone who has been running the store since 2018, I’m passionate about helping hobbyists with everything from beginner tank setups to complex custom aquariums.

This thread is a place for you to ask me anything about what it’s like to run an LFS, provide aquarium maintenance services, or manage the daily challenges of working with live animals and equipment. Whether you’re interested in how we care for our livestock, what goes into maintaining a healthy reef, or how to choose the right equipment, feel free to ask!

Some topics I can cover:

  • Managing a fish store day-to-day.

  • Challenges and rewards of working in the aquarium industry.

  • Tips for new or experienced aquarists on equipment and maintenance.

  • Custom aquarium installations and maintenance services.


I’m excited to answer your questions and share what I’ve learned along the way!

Looking forward to hearing from all of you!

I have a question. I am starting college soon, and one of my goals is to start an LFS or a business in the aquarium industry. Do you have any advice on how to reach that goal? Or how were you able to start your LFS?
