We have a few second hand vivariums and fish systems available so have decided to open the doors between 10am-2pm this Saturday if anyone is interested in purchasing any. I will post on Saturday morning what we have left. If more details are needed please message.

To all our valued customers,
It is with a heavy heart that we announce our shop will be closing on 13th July 2025. Our lease is coming to an end, and with the ongoing uncertainty on the high street, we have decided not to commit to a new lease.
We want to extend our thanks to all our loyal customers and dedicated staff for your incredible support over the past 23 years. It’s been an absolute pleasure serving you and your pets.
We will continue to stock live food and dry goods right up until our closing date. After that, Pet Express Hastings on Queens Road will be offering the same high-quality reptile live food and dry goods you’ve come to expect, so you can continue to get your pet’s essentials conveniently from the town centre.
Thank you once again.

Hastings Reptile & Aquatic Centre has been established since 2002 where the business has grown from a small market shop into an exciting forward thinking pet shop. We really want our customers to see something they haven’t seen before.

Located opposite M&S at Hastings main shopping centre, which makes finding the shop easy and lots of parking.

We stock over 60 animal display units. Every effort is made to make our customers feel welcome. We pride ourselves on the information that we give to our customers. We encourage everyone to research and ask as many questions as they need to feel confident with the animal they are purchasing.

We have around 80 coldwater & tropical aquariums. with a good selection of tanks and equipment we have enough to satisfy even the most experienced fish keeper.
