For many years, CATFISH AQUARIUM has worked in all aspects of the Ornamental Tropical Fish and Animals Trade. During that time, we have earned the respect, and have emerged as one of the most important exporters of “wild-caught” Ornamental Tropical Fish and animals in the Amazon region.

When CATFISH AQUARIUM started its commercial operations in 2016, we soon realized, there was a need to expand our facilities and to offer our customers a more expanded variety of high quality, healthy and aquarium-acclimated, species of Tropical Fish.

Over the years, our business has grown, keeping its commitment in the pursuit of discovering NEW species of Ornamental Tropical Fish. Our experienced and highly trained staff pride themselves with their continued care of livestock, always being treated with the same passion and professionalism as from our first day in business. The tech upgrades and improvements done in our facilities and our expanded service support, have contributed to our success.

For years now, we have been shipping across the globe to countries such as China, Taiwan, Singapore, Thailand, Japan, throughout Europe, Canada and the U.S.A. With earned international recognition we are considered as one of the largest principal suppliers and exporters of “wild-caught” Ornamental Tropical Fish and Animals in South America.

We maintain a LARGE IN-STOCK INVENTORY throughout the year, to satisfy our special customer’s needs. The experience learned and our commitment to quality, flows through all aspects of our business. From a highly qualified staff, to our high technology facilities and farms, which provides the best handling of each of our client’s orders.

  • CATFISH AQUARIUM has always believed having a LARGE IN-STOCK INVENTORY is essential to our business success. Throughout the year, the Amazon River with its many tributaries, has seasonal high and low water levels, that effects the collecting of tropical fish.
  • With that in consideration, we built our facilities, with hundreds of aquariums and holding vats, so we could take advantage of the more challenging times when collecting our fish. We work with a professional team of collectors, who bring new fish to our facility every day.
  • We are currently, finishing the construction and installation of our NEW FACILITIES, which will have the capacity to hold over 600 double-boxes of fish on hand, at any one time. Our new modern facilities along with our professional highly qualified staff are the core of our business operations.
