About Us

Fish, Shrimp and Plant Specialist.

Who is Daku?

Hey guys, Daku here! I am an aquarium enthusiast from South Florida with a focus on breeding freshwater fish and shrimp. All my livestock is homebred by me here in my 100+ tank fish and shrimp rooms! I also grow and provide a wide variety of aquatic plants, some of which are sourced locally from an aquatic plant nursery, and my Bucephalandra which I import directly from farms in Indonesia!

I have been an aquarium hobbyist all my life. I started out with an interest in breeding freshwater fish and shrimp, and have spent many years working on my various lines of Ram Cichlids, Medaka Ricefish, and Neocaridina Shrimp.

In my opinion, aquatic plants are a must when it comes to freshwater aquariums, and I am just as passionate about growing plants and mosses as I am breeding fish and shrimp! My favorite plant is Bucephalandra. I am an avid collector and importer, always bringing in a wide variety to fuel my Buce addiction!

I love this hobby and my business that has grown from it. I am dedicated to the continuous mastery of my hobby, and supplying high quality fish, shrimp, plants to my ever-growing community and customer base.

I post daily updates on my Instagram and Facebook pages. Feel free to follow me so you can stay up to date on what I am working on here at Daku Aquatics!

Thanks for all the love and support, Daku out!
