Eco-friendly Products & Services
Carbon Neutral Services
Most of the energy generated in Indiana is generated by burning coal. Burning coal releases carbon into the atmosphere. Scooter's Aquatics & Exotics determines the amount of energy each individual aquarium consumes in a year. They then use this to calculate how much carbon is released into the atmosphere because of that power consumption. This is called it's carbon footprint. Then after the amount of each aquarium's carbon footprint is calculated, Scooter's Aquatics & Exotics offsets that amount by investing in clean energy projects around the country, whether it's a solar farm in California or a wind farm in Wisconsin. By offsetting the carbon footprint of our aquariums, Scooter's Aquatics & Exotics is lowering it's negative impact on the environment and at the same time creating a cleaner, greener environment for our children.
Ultra-Premium "Green" Fish
All fish (and coral / living rocks) offered in this line are MAC Certified. These fish are raised and cared for under the strictest of standards which guarantees a longer, healthier life for the fish and more enjoyment for you. Wherever possible, fish from our premium line are "tank-bred" which reduces the amount of stress to our natural coral reefs.
Eco-friendly Stands & Enclosures
We offer special stands made from bamboo, reclaimed wood or wood raised to be harvested specifically for wood products. These products offer a significantly reduced impact on the environment. Bamboo is particularly eco-friendly because bamboo forests regenerate exponentially faster than "traditional" woods.
