Amazing ! Love the hobby drove passed the old location for years and never went in. I will certainly go for a visit now there is parking. The scale reminds me of StGeorge Aquariums for back in the day. Dont have a tank anymore sadly, but still love the aquariums.

This explains a lot. Aquaristic is my go to LFS. However the last few times I visited I thought it looked a bit shabby and run down. Now it makes sense. Will pop over soon

yeah not easy running one shop whilst building another! Plus it's hard to find the motivation to keep ontop of the existing knowing full well that a brand new shop is just around the corner :) Well worth visiting this new one, it's a stunner!

Just came across your video in my feed and that is great as I thought they closed down at botany and epson Rd Beaconsfield. I was there last week and waiting to cross the lights and saw a TO LET sign. I thought drats such a good store gone under? I turned around without crossing the road to see the shop as it looked like it was in the last stages of being packed up. I will definitely go to their new shop as I need some frozen bloodworm for my shrimp.
