📣 NYOS HAS LANDED! 🐠💙

You’ve been asking for it for AGES… so we finally listened! 👀

We’ve started bringing NYOS products into the shop, with a selection now available on the shelves 🙌

This is just the beginning too we’re slowly expanding the range, so plenty more NYOS products are still to come! 👀

As always, we’re listening to what you guys want to see in the shop, so keep the requests coming! 💙🐠

A little marine top-up! ☺️

We’ve got some absolutely gorgeous new additions, including our new Porcupine Puffer, Derek! 🐡💙

He’s already settled in, loves absolutely everyone and, most importantly, is VERY greedy 😂

As always, the camera really doesn’t do any of them the justice they deserve! 😍

Pop in and have a look for yourself there’s plenty to see! 👀🐠

Last minute Tropical Marine Centre trip! 🐠

We had a very unplanned trip to Tropical Marine Centre today… but after such a busy Bank Holiday weekend, it was definitely needed! 😂

We’ve had a lovely little top-up of a few things to get those marine tanks looking nice and full again. 🐟🪸

As always, all new arrivals will be off sale for 48 hours while we give them time to settle in, make sure they’re happy, healthy and eating well.

You’re more than welcome to pop in and have a look in the meantime though! 👀💙

Please note: Reserved livestock must be collected within 48 hours or it will go back on sale.

I think this sums up exactly how we’re all feeling after that Bank Holiday weekend… 😂💤What an absolutely crazy few days!...

I think this sums up exactly how we’re all feeling after that Bank Holiday weekend… 😂💤

What an absolutely crazy few days! We’ve been non-stop, and apparently Baby Trevor has had enough too. 🐢😂

It’s hard work being the main star of the show, greeting all his visitors and keeping everyone entertained all weekend! Safe to say he’s earned a good nap… buried in the sand, fast asleep. 🥹💙

Back to reality today… once Trevor decides to wake up. 😂

WHAT A BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND! 💙

We honestly can’t thank everyone enough for the support this weekend! 🐠

Going into the summer holidays, we expected things might quieten down a little… but it’s been the complete opposite! 😂
We’ve been absolutely rammed throughout the entire summer holidays, and this Bank Holiday weekend has been no exception!

It’s been so lovely seeing so many new faces as well as all of our regulars, and seeing so many of you making the most of the Bank Holiday deals!

We’ve also had so much amazing feedback about the shop, and hearing how happy everyone is genuinely means so much to us. It makes all the hard work completely worth it. 💙

Whether this weekend was your first visit or you’re one of our regulars, THANK YOU! We appreciate every single person who supports our little family run shop.

What a weekend! 🥹🐠💙
We hope to see you all again soon!

The Aquatic Retailer 💙

BANK HOLIDAY OFFER – TODAY ONLY! 💙

Our Albino Senegal Bichirs (Polypterus senegalus) are down from £36 to just £20! 🤯🐟

These are absolutely stunning fish, but please remember they grow BIG! Adults can reach around 30–35cm (12–14 inches), so they need a large aquarium with plenty of floor space as they mature.

They can make great large-fish community residents when kept with suitable tank mates that are too big to be eaten. They’re predatory, so small fish, shrimp and anything that fits in their mouth are definitely not suitable tank mates! 😂

A proper secure lid is also a must bichirs are notorious escape artists!

✨ £36 → £20 TODAY ONLY
📍 Available in store while stocks last.

NEW DISPLAY… JUST BECAUSE WE CAN 😂

The hardest part about working in an aquatic shop is trying not to set up a million tanks… sometimes we just cave! 😂

This time we’ve created a new display for our Male Samurai Betta & Red Tail Penguin Tetras, using Dragon Stone and we’re seriously impressed with how beautiful it looks underwater! 🪨🌿

Pop in and see it for yourself… you might just leave with some inspiration for your next setup! 👀

We can also get these tanks in! 👀 They come completely bare no light, no filter, just a blank canvas ready for you to get creative. 🌿🐟

Perfect for aquascaping and creating something completely your own!
