New fish can now be added to garden ponds this month providing care is taken over acclimatising them. Traditionally new additions are floated in their bags to allow temperatures to equalise but to avoid any further shock, add the fishes together with their transport water to a clean bucket, before gently adding water from the pond over the course of around twenty minutes. Keep containers covered to prevent fish from jumping out.

Now is a great time to start algae control measures – if you use a holistic algae controller such as barley straw or phosphate remover, consider adding these now before your algae start to grow. The early season lag to plant growth means that blanket w**d and green water can steal a march before the competition starts in earnest. Check out some of the options available online and in our stores.

As we approach the big day, we would like to wish all of you and your families a very Merry Christmas and a bubbly New Year in 2024! We are truly grateful for your continued support and loyalty throughout the year and have some exciting new projects to share with you in 2024.
In fact, 2024 is a landmark year for us, so keep an eye on our website and social media for news and announcements to make sure you don't miss out!
All Maidenhead Aquatics stores will be open over the festive period, except for Christmas Day and Boxing Day. Please note that some may also be closed on New Year's Day, so we'd recommend calling the store you plan to visit before leaving home, as some may also be operating on reduced opening hours. Rest assured, however, that all of our fish and livestock will receive special Christmas feeds and water changes and that we'll ensure they're all well and happy over the holidays.
MERRY FISHMAS!

My favourite part of a fish delivery is when I get to see if the Bettas look how I expected them to look when I ordered them (I go off a list of names, not pictures) this week they have surpassed my expectations. 😍

Tropical tabs are a fun interactive way to feed your fish, the fish get to graze on them over the course of the day which is a more natural way for them to feed (unless your greedy tiger barbs get there first). A nice way of doing a head count and also a way to check on your fish health as it brings them to the front of the tank.

Our newest arrivals are settling in nicely and feeding well, hopefully as things stand these all should be good to go for the weekend.

Fishkeeper Fry is back for 2024 and registration is now open!
This short 8-week programme has been designed to be delivered in the classroom by the schools' own teachers. It uses a series of weekly online instructional films, engaging worksheets, and added-value films, which provide step-by-step lessons about setting up an aquarium, adding fish and looking after those fish day-to-day.
The resources have all been developed to support the National Curriculum and to get children excited about keeping fish and understanding how to look after and care for them responsibly. Participating schools will be provided with their very own free aquarium and all the associated equipment that is used in the programme to enable them to follow along with the films and set up and care for their own aquarium in the classroom – all with the support of the expert fishkeepers based at a Maidenhead Aquatics store near to your school.
We even provide a selection of fish for them to enjoy so that the children see the science of fishkeeping in real life using the mini eco-system they create from water chemistry to how fish eat and the nitrogen cycle.
