Pet fish lovers across the Bay Area don’t have to travel far to fill their tanks.

Segrest Farms, which has locations in three Bay Area counties, started in 1962 with 12 tanks. At the time, it raised angelfish for a distributor that shipped the fish by rail up to New York before air transport was an option. Since then, it has grown into the largest distributor of tropical fish in the world.
 

Segrest has six production farms and distributes the fish throughout North America, South America, the EU and occasionally to South Africa.
