A trusted marine fish exporter from Kenya
Bluefields Aquatics supplies premium-quality ornamental saltwater fish, invertebrates and soft corals to aquarium importers worldwide. Strategically located along the East African coastline, we specialise in sourcing unique species from the Indian Ocean and Red Sea — offering exceptional diversity, vibrant coloration and strong survival rates.
We work with wholesalers, aquarium retailers and distributors looking for a reliable ornamental marine fish supplier in Africa, with consistent quality and professional export handling. Every specimen is carefully selected and handled under strict quality-control protocols from collection to export — healthy, disease-free fish with clear skin, strong vitality and minimal stress.
Sub-2% DOA — or we cover it
Since moving to our new facility, we've held our dead-on-arrival rate under 2%. If a shipment ever loses more than 2%, we cover the fish and the freight on the loss above that line. That's how confident we are in our packing and conditioning.
Source-direct quality, handled like it matters
Fewer hands between the reef and your facility means healthier fish, better margins and full traceability.
Collected at source
We collect from the Indian Ocean and Red Sea ourselves using responsible methods — not through a chain of middlemen.
Conditioned & healthy
Every fish is quarantined and conditioned in our own systems. Disease-free stock with clear skin, strong colour and vitality.
Export-grade packing
Professional packing engineered for long-haul air cargo — oxygen, insulation and water chemistry dialled in for sub-2% DOA.

KEPHIS export permits, CITES certificates, health certificates and packing lists — all prepared and included.
