I've finally gotten round to the long overdue algae battle with the JBL blanki π₯πΏπ―
We use this brilliant piece of kit in our day to day cleaning at the shop and in our personal aquariums due to the easy removal of algae with this non scratch algae scrubber! πͺ
*Suitable for Glass aquariums only*
Now there's a reason that we've decided in recent years not to sell any (monster) fish we can't take back once fully grown... here's 6 12inch to 15 inch Red finned cigar sharks that we've taken in that were kept in a 200 litre aquarium for roughly 15 years of their life.. this species SHOULD reach around 3 feet and has only attained a third of that π₯Ί
We stores have a responsibility to sell appropriate species for the trade, despite what might make us money and species like this, red tail catfish etc etc are not for the average hobbyist π―
*Big praise to the keeper for surrendering these fish as I'm sure they were attached to them β€οΈ*
It doesn't matter if it's a small business or a local chain store, find the qualities you want in a store and shop responsible π€β€οΈππ¦πΏ

These German blue rams are the biggest I can order them in and boy are they stunning (and cheap too!!) πππ
These are a striking addition to most community aquariums that house species such as tetras, corydoras, angelfish, discus and many others!β€οΈ

π¦πAlbino cherry barbs ππ¦
Barbs often get a bad reputation because of their boisterous, fin-nipping behavior, but cherry barbs are an exception to the rule and behaviour wise act like your average mild mannered tetra and rasbora π€β€οΈππΏ
Best kept in a group of 6 or more for best results and will look absolutely stunning against a backdrop of live aquarium plants β

Our new small koi have settled in well and are taking food like there's no tomorrow! π
Remember, here at the shop we keep all of our pond fish for sale outdoors just as you would!
This means they're well acclimatised to our British climate and should transition to your ponds at home with ease! β€οΈππΏ
