We love getting videos like this 😍 A long time customer and experienced fishkeeper, spotted our little Pea Puffers and with that decided to dive into the watery world of aquascaping 🪴 🌿 The perfect excuse for a new project right! 🙈 With that they began their journey and got their new tank looking fabulous, cycled and ready for their little Murder Beans (oops! Sorry... Pea Puffers 🤣)

Look at them all settled and loving their little worm snack 😍🪱

If you are a seasoned hobbyist looking for a new project, or are completely new to the hobby we are always more than happy to assist 💗

A terribly sad update to share with you all. Our beloved store pet Freddy sadly passed away today 🌈💛

We know 100's of our wonderful customers loved him as much as us staff members. Unfortunately despite staff's best efforts there is no fighting against old age 😔 From Freddy arriving to us the size of a small finger nail, growing up to be the wonderful Yellow warty lump of a Frog Fish so many came to adore, he helped educate so many about Marine keeping and the vast array of types of Marine fish. We will very much miss his grumpy face and his sassy little ways 💛

Sleep tight Freddy 💛 If you have any pictures/memories with of our beautiful boy please feel free to share 💛

With the weather starting to slowly brighten up... don't forget to change your UV bulbs to get a head start on that pesky green water! 🌞

Manufacturers recommend changing the bulb every 6 to 12 months (every 3 months if you have a very high stocking levels) even if the bulb is lit. 😎💡This will give optimum water clarity as well as keeping any water born nasties in check 🦠🧫

We are currently stocked up in a range of sizes and types so pop in to get yours ❤ Unsure what size you need? Bring in your old bulb and we will match it for you 🥰
