As a small business we always endeavour to do our best to serve customers in a timely and patient manor. We have a wide loyal customer demographic and not all are able bodied. This may involve us helping them to their car. We can only apologise for the short wait.

We strive so hard to be the best at what we do , maybe only a review but it’s saddens us all at FISH AND BITS to read this .
We do have a sign to say if we’re going to be absent but on this day obviously wasn’t seen 😕

Why we do gift vouchers

You give a gift voucher to provide the recipient with the flexibility to choose something they truly want, avoid giving an unwanted gift, and offer a convenient option for the giver. Vouchers also allow the giver to show thoughtfulness without needing to know specific preferences, and they can be a good choice for last-minute or long-distance gifts, we can pop them in the post or you can pick up , we don’t date our vouchers use when you want 👍👍

😟 Did you know fish can get stressed too?
Just like us, fish experience stress — and when it’s ongoing (for example, from bullying by more aggressive tank mates), their immune system can weaken, leaving them more vulnerable to illness.

Here are some common causes of fish stress to watch out for 👇
🐟 Not enough hiding spots for timid fish
🐠 Incompatible or aggressive tank mates
🌊 Overstocking, which can reduce oxygen and affect water quality
🏠 An aquarium that’s too small
🥬 Poor nutrition
💧 Elevated ammonia or nitrate levels (especially stressful for goldfish)
⚖️ Fluctuating pH levels
🌡️ Sudden temperature changes (a common cause of stress in bettas)

Keeping your aquarium conditions matched to the demands of the fish and other livestock is key to their health and happiness. 💙

👉 Want to help your fish thrive?
Regular water testing and high-quality nutrition can make all the difference. Visit https://blog.tetra.net/en-en/ to discover expert care tips and products designed to keep your fish calm, healthy, and happy.
