Why Choose Sea Dwelling Creatures ?


Our Mission - 100% Customer Satisfaction

We strive to create long lasting and mutually beneficial relationships with our customers. We know we can only accomplish this by maintaining an unyielding commitment to quality, variety, and world-class customer service. Providing healthy animals is the most important thing for our customers and their customers. To that end we never stop looking for ways to improve our techniques and enhance our knowledge. 

Our Vision - 100% Sustainability

The only way to realize this is to be fully committed to increase the availability of captive bred animals and to provide funding and equipment for sustainable collection training and practices.  We source our animals from suppliers that are responsible and committed to the long term future of the industry.  If we all work together, we can make this vision a reality.

Our Approach - 100% Focus, Commitment and Effort

Every day, our staff comes to work ready to take on the challenge of caring for these creatures and fulfilling our obligations to our customers. There are no shortcuts and there are no cheat codes. Precise acclimation, diligent monitoring and maintaining of optimal water quality, ensuring a nutritious diet for the animals, delicate handling and careful preparation for transport all take tremendous focus, commitment and effort. That is what we expect from our staff and that is how we set out to provide our customers with the healthiest animals possible.

Our staff is composed of dedicated biologists and aquatic specialists and we take our obligation to the animals and to our customers very seriously.
We believe that one of the reasons we have been successful over the last thirty years is due to our desire to constantly improve our husbandry and shipping methods as well as our customer service.

Our mission is to serve this amazing hobby, these wondrous creatures and our hard working customers who are the lifeblood of the industry that we love.</p>

Juan Villaneuva

IN LOVING MEMORY

It is with the greatest sadness that we mark the premature passing of our beloved Juan Villaneuva on September 9th, 2023. Juan was an unsung icon in the industry with an unmatched, encyclopedic knowledge of all things related to marine aquaria. He was the hardest working, kindest, humblest, most self-effacing person imaginable and a pillar of our company for over 31 years. More than that he was a beloved family member, friend, and a selfless mentor to all who knew him. Juan, you were taken from us way too soon and we will miss you always! We honor your memory with love and respect. Rest in peace!
