ABOUT
PENDO AQUARIA

​

Our story

Blending a hobbyist passion and an entrepreneurial dream does not always come to fruition, though that is exactly where this story begins. A young man in pursuit of obtaining the most unique and healthy specimens of tropical fish was a culmination of a history of raising and keeping. Believing in the power of the local small business, a retail store was born in Ntinda, Kampala. Eight years later, we continue to stay true to our roots of not sacrificing quality for quantity, while providing the aquatic-loving community with the most unique, healthy, and varied assortment of freshwater fish.

​

Our passion

Our dedication and specialization in freshwater aquaria has resulted in an unparalleled selection of fish, both popular and exotic, that one would be hard pressed to find anywhere else. Our passion has culminated in being the largest freshwater aquarium store in the nation. Often, we get visitors who have traveled a great distance to shop at our store, but don’t worry, we also make deliveries to all parts of Uganda.

While there are a variety of features that set Pendo Aquaria apart from other aquatic stores, one major difference is the selection, quality, and health of our fish. These three important factors in our fish livestock.  Another thing we do differently is that all of our tanks are individually filtered, NOT run off of one central filtration system. This allows us to control the health of each separate tank and limits the spread of disease. These are just a few things which elevate Pendo Aquaria to another level.
