About Proud Aquariums

Proud Aquariums started in mid 2024 by Isaac Sullivan. After exploring the world of aquariums and fishkeeping, he found various things in this world, including expensive cleaning services, people physically unable to maintain their tanks and misinformation.

Proud Aquarium's goal and Isaac's goal are to bring everyone together and create an environment for hobbyists to feel cared for and welcomed.

We strive to provide the best information possible for your situation and provide fair and transparent pricing.

Isaac specialises exclusively in freshwater tanks, with a focus on cichlids and aggression management in community tanks. He has cohabited flowerhorns with other cichlid species and helped clients set up community tanks for long-term success.

Isaac is neurodivergent and brings that lived experience directly into how Proud Aquariums operates. He understands first-hand the barriers that can make tank upkeep difficult, and has built the business to make sure that support is never out of reach. Having also worked in the NDIS sector, Isaac understands that in some cases communication and booking can be challenging on the best of days.

We strive to make our business and this hobby accessible and easy to access.

  • Fish tank cleaning/maintenance

    We specialise in, and only work on, freshwater tanks.

    You can book a one-off booking, or we can organise an ongoing service either weekly, fortnightly, monthly or quarterly.

    Your first service will always include a detailed observation report; any further observation reports cost $30.00

    Every service comes with a free water test.

    Please contact us for a free quote for your service; we base our price on tank size.

  • Holiday care

    We know how difficult it is to go away when you have fish, so let us help.

    We will come daily or every second day to feed your fish and check the water quality over the duration of your holiday. If you book more than three days, we will include a free water change as well.

    Costs: $25.00 per day

  • Ongoing support for clients

    If you have a booking or have had one in the last three months, we are more than happy to give any required support during this period for free via text, email or phone call.

    Just reach out!

Getting a quote

To get a quote please email or text us.

We will need some information from you to provide a quote: your email address, tank size (in litres or measurements of length, height and depth), as well as your suburb. A picture of your tank would also help. We are also happy to go out to view the tank and provide a quote in person.

The quote we give you is what you'll pay. If a job takes longer than expected, that's on us, not you. The only time a price would change is if you request additional services after the quote is provided. And if our prices do change, we will always let you know before the service if that happens.
