About

CAK Aquatics LLC is an aquatic livestock production and technology company run by Christian Kline (founder) and a small support staff. Christian has been in the hobby for well over a decade and has spawned countless species during this time with a focus on smaller L-number plecos initially and then a variety of other smaller freshwater fishes and shrimp such as members of the Apistogramma genus. Starting this year Christian began giving his talk: “Success with Apistogramma” to local clubs, please reach out to christian@cakaquatics.com to inquire about a speaking engagement.

Here at CAK Aquatics LLC we focus on specialty fish and shrimp production, breeding and grow-out systems, fish room process improvement, and fish room level automation. The mission is to produce hard to find species within the United States directly while employing modern automation technology to optimize the process.

We are currently operating two fully automated fish rooms, the first consisting of ~120 aquariums totaling over 2,500 gallons of spawning and fry grow out capacity.

The second room consists of ~30 aquariums focused on spawning members of the Apistogramma genus and holding for shipping and receiving. Due to a recent move this room is currently under construction to increase capacity up to 80 aquariums and ~2,000 gal of spawning, grow out, and holding capacity.

Original shipping and receiving hub pre-move, post-move updates coming soon.
