About Us

I started getting interested in
fish in 1965 & was working part time in a busy fish importers from
1969. This was a great way to learn the trade. I've bred most types of fish over
the years & to this day take on new imports to breed. I recently
took on one of the new Danio sp.
from Burma & still get a thrill about breeding this egg scatterer
group. I took these on to try out some new fry feeds. I'm a fish breeder at heart & wanted to find the best foods for my projects. Unfortunately these foods had to be bought in half ton quantities & the first import was a leap of faith which later proved a success. The business began by distributing these foods to help out with the enormous cost involved in importation. I started re-packing into handy 100grm packs & many breeders now regularly ask for more. This is not confined to this country - many European breeders regularly order from the site. We have a large circle of regular
customers in the UK & worldwide which include hobbyists; retailers;
wholesalers; importers; Cod/Turbot fisheries; Universities; Museums;
Government bodies; live food growers; UK commercial fish breeders including
Seahorse breeders. We test our foods out in our fish house before selling
on the site. We are definately a 'hands on' operation. In this era of carbon emissions the UK should start looking at breeding fish again. Importing freight from the Far East, South America & Africa is a little crazy while we have good breeders here now who can supply part of this load. Sites built & maintained include:- Killifish of Western Africa , The British Livebearer Association website & Malta WWII..
