Cherries and the Nature Aquarium

The Start of his Journey.

Allen Ortega started his aquarium journey back in July, 2021. Back then, he got captured into the beauty of aquariums through a YouTube series that FooTheFlowerhorn had posted, his Walstad series.

From working to a local fish store, to then creating his own store, Allen has truly strived to build onto this great hobby. Through the many friends he has made along the way, and with the help of these friends, he believes that he will aid in building a great community. His goal is to grow the community of those who recreate nature within their homes.



ABOUT THE BRAND

Cherries Aquatics LLC was created to inspire passion to those who love nature and the simplicity of the aquatic plant world. At the start, we were purely focused on plants that are less common. That is why we do have many rare or uncommon plants. However, as we started to grow, we decided to add more items that we thought fit our goal; bringing luxury to the aquarium world to have the best view of nature in our homes. A world where nature and human architecture could collide. We bring in some of the best products of the United States to one store, so there may not be a necessity of buying products from multiple stores, and instead shop at one store; everything at once.
