Dolphin Products has evolved over the years from T&B Exotic Fish, a chain of aquarium shops. As we grew, we started looking to filtration needs of aquariums and ponds .
What we saw was a lack of reliable pumps and fish (and human) friendly chemicals and additives. We looked to the water purification industry and, with the help of a
microbiology lab, developed a line of truly effective products which promote a very healthy environment for both pond and aquarium fishes. These products have also become very important in commercial applications, protecting systems from the harmful effects of ammonia during the periods of population fluctuations.
Thus was born the Dolphin Pharmaceuticals Division of Dolphin Aquarium & Pet products.
During the seventies, we noticed that the pumps that we were marketing were inefficient and had relatively short life spams. In addition the high noise levels, heat transfer and low volume turnover of magnetic drive pumps added to the overall cost of ownership. High speed, direct drive pumps had their place and also had the higher noise levels and heat issues.
In reviewing the needs of the industry, we threw out the current thinking and developed a a new type of pump which would move high volumes of water while consuming low amounts of current.
In the late 80's, The Dolphin Pumps Division developed the unique approach of utilizing low rpm motors with wide, high horsepower impellers. This created the first quiet, cool running, high volume aquarium and pond pump. Over the years, we have continued the development of our pumps and continue to use the best materials available.
Our pump motors are from Emerson and our wet ends and seals are of our own design. The seals are available in various grades to pump pure fresh water to the most demanding abrasive reef environment.
The Dolphin Diamond series pumps are designed to provide up to and over a decade of maintenance free service even in the most abrasive reef environment. Our confidence is evident in our warranty 2-3 years full including shipping and coverage on the complete pump, including the seal.
Our policy is service starts at the time of sale, not ends. We are here to work with our smallest through our largest customer.
