About us

"By hobbyists, for hobbyists"

Established April 12, 2002

Imagine Ocean is a unique retail store, catering to the saltwater aquarium hobbyist.

With an emphasis on healthy fish, corals and invertebrates, and quality hardware and dry goods, Imagine Ocean provides an atmosphere where the novice or seasoned saltwater aquarist can shop with confidence.

Imagine Ocean endeavors to supply the advanced hobbyist with specialty items, and items that are not generally carried by major chain retailers. Imagine Ocean maintains the highest standards of ethics and business practices from all aspects of the chain of custody of marine species. This will mean that Imagine Ocean will only purchase livestock from ethical and reputable wholesalers, will support captive propagation of livestock when possible, and will uphold the highest standard of husbandry while caring for livestock on the premises. These practices, along with assisting hobbyists with the best information possible, promotes healthy living marine ecosystems within patrons' homes and businesses, and with all due diligence in consideration of the world's oceans and reefs.

We offer sound advice that stems from over 20 years in the hobby, and knowledge that has come from doing ourselves and listening to others' experiences. Our goal is to supply local hobbyists with the hardware and livestock to cultivate healthy thriving marine ecosystems.

Whether your system is 2 gallons or 2000 gallons, we're here to serve you.  If you're thinking about setting up your first system, drop in and see us, we'll be pleased to help you.

If you're looking to have your existing aquarium cleaned, we offer maintenance service for homes and businesses.  Ask for details!

Imagine Ocean is owned and operated by Jennifer Myerscough and Scott Myerscough, and supported by our excellent staff.
