PDX Fish Guys is a Portland, Oregon-based aquarium fish rescue service that finds new homes for unwanted aquarium fish. These fish are then checked for health then added to the PDX Fish Guys' aquarium environment where customers can see the fish and learn more about fish habitats including world's reefs and natural ecosystems.
Not only can customers leave unwanted aquarium fish, buy supplies and learn about fish habitat, the PDX Fish Guys provide aquarium maintenance and cleaning services.
Implications - That's what I call full-scale fish love. And the PDX Fish Guys clearly have an affinity for the little creatures. "When fish come into the rescue, I make sure that they are healthy and then find them new homes where they will be cared for," said one of the owners in a statement.
The fish world (and the rest of us) thanks you.
