Where to buy in East Anglia.

Shop Name: Aquatics Express

Location: Norwich

Directions: 155 Magdalen St, Norwich, Norfolk NR3 1NF

What they Offer: Tropical and Marine fish, stunning corals and more.

Tropica/Ada Stockist: No They do have few comon plants mostly cuttings and so, however I did buy Duckweed there.

Overall Verdict: Clean and well kept the focus is on the fish and not on the plants. Very freindly and helpful staff working there. The good thing on this shop that there are open in Sundays and in Thursday they are open till 8pm. They do sell most of the Seachem lines and also do not mind to order for you.
Sometimes they do offers like I did buy 10 ghost shrimps for ONLY 1£ (love those litlle creatures) 🙂

What they Offer: Tropical only. Most of it Dutch tank bred and excellent quality. Often a selection of the rare and unsual.

Tropica Stockist: Good selection of very healthy Tropica plants, plus sundries.

Overall Verdict: Small, but perfectly formed. Jim the owner, is a master of natural aquariums. His display of planted Jewel tanks are testament to his skill and knowledge. Most of the stock supports his planted, slow and natural beliefs. Superb quality stock, all tank bred and A+ quality.

I think Ray the founder and owner retired back to Ireland and left the shop with Joe. Obviously his interests lay elsewhere.

That would make sense! They have some lovely herps, but a sad lack of fish. Glad to see a small business still going, though!
