Today, we pause to celebrate what would have been the birthday of our original co-founder, co-owner, and dear friend, Jake Adams.

Jake was a beating heart of this community, shaping the marine aquarium world with his unbound curiosity, unmatched expertise, and outspoken passion.

His vision and his dedication to the cutting edge of reefkeeping are entirely irreplaceable, and his legacy continues to flow through every tank and every hobbyist he inspired over the years.

We miss your energy, your guidance, and your friendship every single day.
Happy Birthday, Jake.
