Autumn is officially here 🍁
It's cold and wet outside and there's nothing on the TV.
Feels like the right time to settle indoors and watch a fish tank instead. 🐟

We have starter kits with everything you need to start up a new project or there's plenty of ornaments and decor to spruce up your existing aquarium.

Live plants arrive fortnightly, and we have regular fish deliveries to suit every type of aquarium

Come and have a browse, and make these autumnal days worth staying in for.

We are now open
Wed-sat 9.30-5.30
Sun 10-4

✴️We are having a sale on selected corals and frags✴️

To make way for some new livestock, we thought we'd have a flash sale.

Amazing sale prices in our coral tables and we've had a fresh delivery of marine fish too.

Plenty of selection for all aquarium types, so come down and grab a bargain before they're all snapped up!

Please note we are now closed on Mondays and Tuesdays during the winter months

Live food is becoming an ever increasingly popular choice to add variety to a fishes diet.

We currently stock live...
Brineshrimp
Copepods
Daphnia
Bloodworm
Tubifex
Mysis shrimp and river shrimp.

If you do require a large amount of any of these foods, please pre order with us before midday on a Sunday so we can make sure we order enough to go round.
We have found ourselves running short lately and aren't always able to keep up with demand leaving some customers disappointed.
We do apologise if you have have missed out this week.

Live food arrives in on a Thursday and we offer any 5 bags for £6 excluding river shrimp.

We may have over done it with our plant order this week 🫣

Not only is our plant table filled to the brim, we've also had to spill into our fish tanks too just to find a home for them all.

This does mean for a limited time we can do a plant deal of buy four and get a 5th free on all bunches priced at £3.99 each 😁

Ps... we've also had a delivery of gorgeous guppies that should be ready for sale next week

Dear Customers
We're deeply saddened to inform you that due to a burglary that took place last night we're unable to open our Coldwater section at the moment (livestock area). Police have been made aware and we're working closely with them to try and catch those that have done this.

While it's under investigation we're unable to say much but as soon as we can we will update you all.

In the meantime the rest of the shop will be open as usual 9.30am - 5.30pm

Thank you for your continued support, we appreciate every single one of you 🥰

As a local fish shop we're all about helping out our customers and sharing our knowledge with them on their fish keeping journey.
What's the best bit of advice you were given and that you have stuck by over the years? 🤔

23/07/2024

It's not just fresh water fish that sometimes need a new home, we have recently taken in this gorgeous twinspot wrasse for rehoming as well...

Excuse the pictures- they don't do it justice, but it just would not keep still!

This is a large wrasse that is currently approx 20cm (8 ish inches) and is not considered reef safe due to his voracious appetite for crustaceans and his determination to find them can sometimes result in a few corals being dislodged in the process.

This large, colourful wrasse is looking for a suitably large aquarium for his new home, if you think you have space please get in touch for more details

23/07/2024

We've had another rehome!

We've had this stunning pair of male green terrors brought into the store, they are absolutely gorgeous and certainly not camera shy 😀

They are a fairly mild mannered cichlid but would require some large tank mates so they don't think they rule the roost (or the tank I should say)

If you think you could offer the right kind of home for them then please do get in touch and we can give you some more details...

Meanwhile enjoy some pics of this handsome duo

As you can see we have a bit of a snail problem! This is why we always recommend the JBL LimCollect snail trap. This trap was set up and left overnight. It collected a whole trap full, which our yoyo loaches then enjoyed demolishing

Just a bunch of Goby's doing what Goby's do! 🤣

Fresh delivery of Dutch plants in stock at Fathoms 🍀

Wow. What a whopper! This is our sea hare that lives in our display tank. He doesn't come out much during the day, but when he does he's hard to miss! Show us your sea hare's... can you compete with the size of ours?

Could love be in the air... or under the water? ❤️ Banggai cardinalfish reproduction begins when the female courts the male with a dance. She then releases about 40 eggs—which are all connected by filaments and referred to as a clutch—from her body and into the water, where they are fertilized by the male. Within seconds, he sucks up all the eggs into his mouth! CB/LANW/21/001310 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fathoms Aquatics Leighton Buzzard Garden Centre Hockliffe Road LU7 9NX Tel. 01525 854955

Spotted our Shrimp and Goby pair doing a bit of house maintenance today. Although I think the Shrimp is doing all the hard work!
