This isn't your typical fish store with rows of display tanks — it's a specialized operation built around tank setup, maintenance, and especially Neptune Apex system programming, which has become something of a signature offering. Marc's expertise with the Apex ecosystem is a recurring theme. Multiple clients credit him with remotely configuring their Apex controllers, troubleshooting Trident water analysis units, and writing custom code that stabilized alkalinity, calcium, and magnesium levels — leading to what one customer described as "explosive SPS growth." He's handled everything from emergency plumbing repairs on saltwater systems to full Vortec pump installations conducted over Zoom calls, serving clients not just on Long Island but several states away. The service model is distinctly relationship-driven. One customer has relied on Marc for a decade. Another describes him responding immediately to an equipment failure while they were on vacation, preventing livestock loss. A client with a 210-gallon mixed reef tank called him in a panic before a trip when their Trident went down — Marc had the replacement unit running in short order. Carlos, another team member, earned praise for helping a hobbyist finally defeat green hair algae with patient, detailed reef-keeping guidance. Beyond maintenance, Dynamic Tank Design sells equipment and sources hard-to-find gear, sometimes connecting with hobbyists through Facebook groups. One Tennessee-based customer initially skeptical of a long-distance purchase ended up returning repeatedly after Marc provided serial numbers, photos, and genuine transparency. The company also handles large-scale physical work — two guys moved a 200-gallon tank into a basement in two hours. For reef hobbyists who want serious technical support and someone who will answer the phone during a crisis, Dynamic Tank Design delivers. ## Specializations - **Water Types**: Freshwater, Saltwater - **Livestock & Products**: Corals, Reef, Aquarium Equipment - **Services**: Tank Maintenance, Tank Setup, Equipment Repair, Consultation, Delivery, Ships Fish, Custom Tanks, Tank Cleaning - **Known For**: Premium Equipment, Knowledgeable Staff, Healthy Fish ## Highlights - Neptune Apex system programming, configuration, and remote troubleshooting expertise - Emergency after-hours service for equipment failures and plumbing issues - Remote consultation and Zoom-based installations for out-of-state clients - Saltwater tank setup and long-term maintenance with decade-long client relationships - Equipment sales and sourcing with nationwide shipping ## Brands Carried Neptune Systems, Apex, Trident, Ecotech Marine, Vortec ## Customer Reviews **"Cono Savino"** - 5/5 - 5 months ago > I had a major plumbing problem with my saltwater tank.

If you have an Apex system you really need someone like Marc to get you back up and running timely and professionally. Keep up the great job, I'm a customer for life! Craig **"Joseph Dinbokowitz"** - 5/5 - a year ago > Great company and plan on doing business with them again. I can’t say enough good things about them. Very knowledgeable too!!!

Below are before and after photos. **"David"** - 5/5 - 4 years ago > I never had a problem maintaining my tank on my own, except I struggle with Neptune Apex programming and the inherent idiosyncrasies which arise from time to time. Hiring Dynamic Tank Design has completely removed the need for a local person to service my tank. Marc remotely reconfigured all of my settings and my Alkalinity, Calcim and Magnesium have never been more stable, which has let to explosive SPS growth. Additionally. Marc has assisted in a rewire and Vortec installation, all remotely and via Zoom calls. Marc is always available for those freak-out moments and even caught and prevented an alkalinity crash, due to my error of improperly mixing my 2-part. I can't say enough about Dynamic Tank Design and will be a customer for as long as I keep my reef, which with their help will be a long time! ## Nearby Stores - [Aquatic Haven](https://www.fishstores.org/new-york/fulton/aquatic-haven) - Fulton, NY - 5.0/5 - [CapitalCorals Research & Restoration](https://www.fishstores.org/new-york/albany/capitalcorals-research-and-restoration) - Albany, NY - 5.0/5 - [City Island Aquarium Tropical Fish Sales](https://www.fishstores.org/new-york/bronx/city-island-aquarium-tropical-fish-sales) - Bronx, NY - 5.0/5 - [Fluid Dynamics Aquarium Services and Store](https://www.fishstores.org/new-york/deer-park/fluid-dynamics-aquarium-services-and-store) - Deer Park, NY - 5.0/5 - [Island Fish and Scale](https://www.fishstores.org/new-york/commack/island-fish-and-scale) - Commack, NY - 5.0/5 - [Luv A Lotl Axolotl/Reptile Boutique](https://www.fishstores.org/new-york/webster/luv-a-lotl-axolotl-reptile-boutique) - Webster, NY - 5.0/5 --- *Source: [FishStores.org](https://www.fishstores.org/new-york/freeport/dynamic-tank-design)* *Last updated: February 7, 2026*
