DFW Fish Rescue

IMPORTANT
Someone has been selling merch with the DFW logo on it. Please be aware that I DO NOT KNOW THIS PERSON and they are using the logo without my permission or any legal right to it. They are not affiliated with DFW Fish Rescue in any way and none of the money made from merch sales is going to the rescue. The account has been removed, but the website is still up. I am working on trying to get that handled. If you see posts selling DFW Fish Rescue merch, please report them immediately, and PM me. Thank you.

It is with an incredibly heavy heart that I have to announce that DFW Fish Rescue will be permanently closing.
I am a full time college student doing accelerated study classes, in addition to having a full-time job providing therapy for highly aggressive clients with IDDs, as well as a part-time job to make ends meet, and on top of it all, I am a member of a research lab and I am now preparing to help teach a two day intensive workshop at an international conference. Between the limitations on space that I have in my apartment, as well as the limits on my finances and especially my time, I simply cannot keep this rescue going.
Over the last eight months, I have been slowly giving away the materials and supplies that have been donated to the rescue, providing them to schools and adopters to further education and provide happier environments for the fish that I’ve helped rehome.
I am so incredibly grateful for all of the help and support that I have received over the last half a decade of doing this, and I ask that the community continues to provide this kind of support to one another. Thank you to everyone who has followed this journey so far. Please enjoy these photos from DFW Fish Rescue’s final adoption. These fish and I love you all. Thank you.

Hey all! Several people have reached out about donating tanks to the rescue. I really appreciate it, but I do not have any stands for putting additional tanks on, and my storage space is very limited at this time. If you have supplies that you’re looking to get rid of, I recommend checking out local aquarium pages to see how you can benefit individuals in your local community, or checking out your local fish store, such as Dallas North aquarium, Fish Gallery, or Glass Aquatics, to see if they will let you trade those items in for store credit. These stores may also take your fish as well, so if you need to empty a tank out on a timeline, try checking these out first.

I am moving and will have to close down the Rescue temporarily. I have quite a few 10 gallon tanks that I will be giving away for free. Pickup only in Plano. DM me if interested.
