Wheatgerm is now in stock at Barnstaple ❄️🧡

Why choose wheatgerm food for your fish this autumn?

As temperatures drop, your fish’s metabolism slows — and their diet should too! That’s where wheatgerm food comes in:

✅ Easily digestible, gentle on fish tummies
✅ Lower protein to match their cooler-weather needs
✅ Packed with nutrients to boost immune health
✅ Helps maintain water quality with less waste

Switching to wheatgerm food this season keeps your fish happy, healthy, and stress-free as the weather cools down!

Meet the African Blenny, also known as the Mossambicus Blenny!

These little characters are one of my personal favourites. They’re full of personality, completely reef safe, and a bit more outgoing compared to other members of the Blenniidae family

✨ Fun fact✨

They’re sometimes called African Fang Blennies thanks to the two small venomous fangs they use to deter predators, a pretty cool survival trick!

Our remaining African Butterfly Cichlids have had a new shoaling species join them recently!

These are African Banded Barbs, they’re a peaceful Barb but best to be kept without any long finned tank mates 🧡

Fishkeeper Fry is back for 2026 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.

Check out this little character! 🐟

The Algae Blenny is one of the most entertaining fish you can add to a reef tank. Always perching on rocks, hopping from place to place, and keeping your glass and rocks tidy by grazing on algae all day long

These fish are peaceful, full of personality, and perfect for helping keep nuisance algae under control! Just make sure you’ve got plenty for them to graze on or supplement with algae based foods
