CUSTOM CORAL INSERTS
At Ocean gallery USA, we create high-quality inserts for fresh water and saltwater environments. Our custom coral reef insert designs are unique, elegant, and safe for your aquatic life. All our products are custom made to fit your aquariums and are professionally installed by our expert staff. All of our inserts are also UV-coated, ensuring that the colors never fade. Additionally, chipping is not a problem as our materials are thoroughly dyed during the manufacturing process. Aquarium maintenance is also taken into consideration with our unique designs. Our products are molded in one piece; custom installed by our professionals to fit in your tank. We take pride in all of our custom work and view our products as one of a kind pieces of art. No other company in the United States comes close to matching the quality that we strive for.
CUSTOM BUBBLE WALLS
Our Bubble Walls are mesmerizingly gorgeous and have become one of our most popularly requested design styles when it comes to indoor architectural water features. Air bubbles are released through a column of water creating a captivating effect as they rise to the top. Color-changing LED lights; which are a standard feature by our company, illuminate the bubbles as they move through the panel in a hypnotic and memorizing manner. Ocean Gallery USA has developed many cutting edge and proprietary effects for our Bubble Walls. These include variable air release mechanisms, custom control programs that sequence the bubbles and lights together, and automated fill and filter systems that reduce maintenance. There are many design aspects such as equipment location and panel size limitations to consider when designing your Bubble Wall. Be sure to speak to one of our talented and informative representatives to guide you on any and all aspects of your Bubble Wall needs. We are here to serve you!
CUSTOM WATER WALLS
Ocean Gallery USA can design and fabricate any water wall for any custom project. Our designers’ inspiration and skills are moderated by over 25 years of collective experience that produce innovative solutions that are not only unique and beautiful but also functional and reliable. Water walls are perfect for courtyards, lobbies or any large open space, while remaining cost effective and space efficient. The benefit of water walls is their ability to offer a quieter sound of water, as the water simply trickles down, rather than dropping and splashing, which can be quite disruptive. Ocean Gallery USA can provide multiple design options to match the style of any project, ranging from a variety of program elements. View our different areas of our expertise. We are here to serve you!
CUSTOM CABINETRY
Ocean Gallery USA has been building custom cabinetry from the start, with our state-of-the-art cabinetry shop and facility. We supply a quality set of cabinetry that is guaranteed to work perfectly with your new tank. From a basic set to the finest furniture, we can put together a set of cabinetry that will work seamlessly with your new custom aquarium or bubble wall while matching your existing style or decor. In addition, there is no need to worry about coordinating details with a separate designer. Getting your cabinetry from the same manufacturer as your tank or water feature reduces the chance of things not working correctly once paired. Remember, We are always here to serve you.
MIGUEL MERCADO – FOUNDER
My amazing journey started over twenty five years ago while I had been a Radiologist Tech at a local hospital. A few years before that, my best friend and I had grown interested in the aquarium hobby. As a result, he purchased a small tank, and of course, as friendly competition would have it, I had to purchase a bigger one. Before I knew it I had four aquariums in my apartment, both fresh and saltwater. I came to the conclusion that if I enjoyed servicing my personal aquariums, there might be a market for that (service). I placed an ad in the local newspaper offering my services, and soon thereafter I acquired over twenty clients in a very short time.
I thought to myself, wouldn’t it be nice if I could design a custom pedestal and canopy for a prefab aquarium, making it a completely custom tank, then I could lease them to doctors, lawyers and hospital’s offices and I can make residual income because I would also be servicing them in a totally turn-key fashion.
Five years into my new endeavor of aquarium leasing, I further strived to learn how to build aquariums myself. As a result, I found the help and friendship of Wade King from ATM in Las Vegas, the star of Animal Planet’s hit TV show Tanked.
Wade taught us how to build custom acrylic aquariums and all the dynamics and particulars involved in the art of acrylic fabrication. From then on, we have remained an exclusive custom aquarium, coral insert, and architectural water feature fabricator and provider. For over twenty years we have continued to remain the exclusive aquarium leasing and maintenance provider for El Paso, Texas, Juarez, Mexico, and Las Cruces, New Mexico.
We are honored to have been, and continue to be, the recipients of numerous local, national, and international awards, with write-ups regarding and praising our craft.
The Lord has blessed us beyond words, and in turn, we continue to consistently pay it forward by doing the spectacular every day for you!
Our standard is and always will be perfection.
Miguel Angel Mercado.
These are the people that make it happen and are the most valuable part of our business!
