Our Story: From Hobbyist to Living Art Aquatics
Cory Sligting was an avid aquarium hobbyist stuck in the corporate world. At first, he designed small freshwater tanks in his spare time. But as his passion for the hobby grew, he moved on to more elaborate concepts.
However, as the designs became more intricate, he ran into a problem. He’d enlist the help of so-called custom aquarium experts only to discover they lacked the knowledge they claimed to have. As a then-customer, this was frustrating and hampered Cory’s ability to develop the intricate designs he imagined.
So, in 1996, Cory took a leap of faith. He left the doldrums of his corporate job to enter the custom aquarium design industry.
His mission: to perfect the custom aquarium design process so that everyone can enjoy beautiful, healthy and vibrant aquatic seascapes.
Thus, Living Art Aquatics was born. Over two decades later, we’re still growing our knowledge and building incredible custom aquariums in Chicago.
Beyond The Tank: A Complete Aquarium Solution
Cory didn’t stop at building awe-inspiring custom aquariums. He was also driven to supply his customers with everything they needed for those tanks. That’s why Living Art Aquatics also builds custom aquarium cabinetry that will fit perfectly with your new tank. After all, a beautiful aquarium deserves an equally beautiful and supportive cabinet to make it look at home.
We can also handle all the maintenance you need for your aquarium on an ongoing basis. Using our four decades of experience, we’ll keep your tank thriving, from the fish to the installation itself. Our mission is to provide a complete aquarium solution that stands out from the crowd.
