Hear What our Customers Have to Say

I wanted to extend our heartfelt thanks for coming to our school to install the new greenhouse hydroponics system. Your expertise and the time you took to explain everything to our staff were invaluable. You truly went above and beyond to ensure that we are well-prepared to use this system effectively.

Huy is a great resource in aquaculture systems. I have never had a question or a problem he could not answer knowingly.

The entire crew at AED have been top notch. Cindy and staff go above and beyond with locating the right parts and getting what I need on time.

Amy is just awesome! Knowledgable, dependable, creative and detailed orientated. It's always a pleasure working with her.

Huy is the most honest and experienced Aquatics Engineer I've ever met. I work at a fairly large public aquarium and Huy has always taken time to answer questions and has helped us tremendously in the design and maintenance of our Life Support wing. His knowledge ranges from aquaculture, life support, to exhibit design, trouble shooting and everything in between.
