For father's day this Sunday 10% off all pond and tropical fish for one day only in honour for father's Day.

09/06/2024

Remember if you come in for fish for the first time or are not one of our customers we will ask for a water sample or proof of the mature aquarium we will test the water sample f.o.c for you to make sure your tank is ready. We use the fishless cycle method if we can , we don't like subjecting fish to ammonia spikes to mature the aquarium. So we have done something different without sacrifing fish to do so We will give you some live media to get you going to add the aquarium f.o.c to get the tank started so you shouldn't get the spike and add fish a phew days later without loss hope this helps . We know it's frustrating having to wait to add fish but the reduction of animal stress is paramount and it's better than your new fish dieing completely.

Rosie

Our resident Chilli Rose has had an upgraded home. More space and a splash of colour. She has been busy investigating today. 😊

Dry scrub habitat’s can have colour and it really brings out her own rosey shades.
The live plants are a dry habitat loving plants that require very little water and they like to warm.

Rosie has space to dig in the earth and space to rest. Also there is plenty of room for her to pose and that is her favorite activity

For more enclosure ideas for your pets come ask our dedicated staff in the reptile centre for advice.

Pink?? Well, why not. Your pet enclosure’s can be snazzy and colourful too 🥰

Please note, Rosie is our store exhibition pet and not available for sale.
