These are not just you average tropicalfish either. Almost each and every specimen within the collection was hand caught but Rusty himself on his numerous collecting trips throughout latin America. An extremely dedicated and passionate individual Rusty built this fish house for the sole purpose of species conservation as their natural habitats and slowly but surely being destroyed. 8000 plus gallons of freshwater cichlids call the Wessel Fish House home. The entire facility is fully automated for maintaining water chemistry and seasonal temperatures that would mimic their natural home waters. Seasons and inspired via the sun.
