Pristine aquariums, effortlessly maintained
Professional freshwater and saltwater aquarium maintenance — water changes, filter cleaning, algae removal, water testing, and more. Scheduled your way: one-time, weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly.
One owner, one point of contact
You'll always work directly with me — no rotating crews or call centers. Personal, consistent care for your tank every visit.
Pursuing ABCCAMP certification
Currently in the process of becoming ABCCAMP certified — committed to professional standards and continuing education in aquarium care.
Medical background with animals
Experience in small-animal medicine — dogs, cats, and periodically exotics — covering wellness care, urgent care, emergency, and sick visits. That same medical attention to detail goes into every tank I service.
Who We Are
LavishlyClean Aquatics is a locally owned aquarium maintenance service based in Waynesville, North Carolina, serving hobbyists and businesses across Western North Carolina.
We take the guesswork and grunt work out of aquarium ownership so you can simply enjoy a pristine, healthy tank. From routine water changes and filter cleaning to algae removal, glass cleaning, comprehensive water testing, and fish care recommendations, every service is tailored to your tank's specific needs — whether it's a small freshwater community aquarium or a large saltwater reef.
As a single owner-operator business, you'll always work directly with the same person on every visit — no rotating crews, no call centers, no handoffs. That owner brings a medical background in small-animal care and a genuine passion for aquatic life, applying the same patient, methodical attention to detail to every aquarium serviced. We're also currently pursuing ABCCAMP certification as part of an ongoing commitment to professional standards and continuing education.
