Thanks for checking our website for updates!  For the safety of our staff, customers, and our fishes

 we are planning on being Closed tomorrow, December 22, 2022

stay home, scrub some algae, and do a water change,

but not a good day to purchase new fish friends.

Latest COVID19 Update

Thanks for checking our latest update.  We're extending our temporary COVID hours to 
Monday - Saturday 10 - 5, and Sunday 12 - 5.
We are still limiting the number of customers to 6 at a time to allow for physical distancing, 
so please be patient - if the door is locked we are at capacity!  
We do appreciate it if you can wear a mask, as it keeps all of us a little safer!  
Know we are working as quickly as possible
to get you in to find some new wet pets and supplies.
We are still happy to bring things out to your car as well.
Thank you for all your amazing support through this difficult time.
Be kind to one another and stay safe.

Latest COVID19 Update

Thanks for checking our latest update.  Yes, we are still open!!!  Governor Polis and the Colorado Department of Agriculture
 (Pet Advisory Care Facilities Act)
have asked that we limit the Neptune's staff to 50% of our previous exposure to customers as well as one another.  
To that end, we have had to reduce staff members present in the shop at one time, and respectfully request only 6 customers are in the shop at one time.  And even though we love our customers, we need everyone to abide by the 6 foot social distancing rules.   The offer still stands if you would like to call in 303-798-1776 and we can deliver products out to your car.  Yes, we're still providing saltwater and RODI for you saltwater folks, and we're well stocked on critters, supplies, and foods.  
New store hours are Sunday 12 - 4, Monday to Saturday 10 - 4.
Thank you to all our amazing customers that have supported us for over 32 years!!!
We will get through this and keep your "wet pets" taken care of in this unusual time.
Be kind to one another and stay well.

COVID19 UPDATES
With the uncertainty of COVID-19 events, we're all just taking it one day at a time. Updates will be provided via voicemail and Facebook page.

We will now be closing at 5PM and will limit the number of people in the shop to 10, so please be patient if we ask you to wait. We are still getting regular deliveries so we are well stocked on food and supplies.

We are also here to bring fish food and supplies to your car if you prefer. We do encourage messaging the page or calling in if you just need to have questions answered. You can also send an email to sharon@neptunestropical.com. We will be checking voicemail messages regularly if you would like to leave a message. 

If you do have to make the visit into the store, check with friends, family, and neighbors (especially elderly or those predisposed to illness) to see if they need any supplies while you're out.

Thank you to our amazing customers, we will get through this together. Take care of yourselves and stay safe!
