ATI Sponge Filter

About ATI Sponge Filters
Aquarium Technology, Inc. was founded in 1991 by Joseph C. Gargiulo. He, in 1991 lived in Atlanta, Georgia, were he still currently resides today. At the time the company was run and operated by Springfield Tool and Tie (known by most as Lustar) in Springfield, New Jersey.



From the time period of 1991 through 2005 ATI has sales numbers that were about the same every year. However, in late 2005 Lustar made an announcement that they were closing their doors, so Aquarium Technology, Inc had to figure out something to do.
There were two options. One of which being closing the company and the owner, Joseph Gargiulo, thought about closing the company as his time and efforts were already in so many other things. The other option was moving the company to Atlanta.
After 2-3 months of business conversations with Lustar and pondering the idea of having the company closer to him, Joseph made the decision of moving the company to Atlanta. In March of 2006 Aquarium Technology, Inc had begun its move south. It took over 2 ½ months to move the entire company. By late May 2006, ATI had reopened its doors for business in Atlanta.

After opening its doors in Atlanta, Aquarium Technology, Inc, had slowly begun to grow; taking in more orders and supplying Sponge Filters and other products. By the end of May 2007 the company had seen a near 6% increase in just that one year.

Hopefully over near future ATI will plan to release new product lines, update customers more, and become well known throughout the aquatic filtration market.
