About Us
about us
Lysmata Labs™ is a small company based in Northern Georgia specializing in freshwater fish, crustaceans, marine life, and more! All livestock is ethically sourced or locally bred to ensure we can support our natural environment and ecosystems.
What does Lysmata mean?
Lysmata is the genus of many different species of shrimp, such as the Peppermint Shrimp. This name was created with the idea of an aquarium cleaning business instead of a livestock business. Nevertheless, the name stuck!
Mission Statement:
Our mission is to bring the world of aquatics into peoples lives and to educate them on the importance of aquatic life, wildlife conservation, and the beauty of the natural world.
