Following Royal Mail's recent price increases on larger packets we have changed our postage system. We ( & I'm sure our customers) are not prepared to pay up to 200% more to send some of our orders. We have looked at various options but have decided to do this -

Orders under 8 cm thick & all overseas orders including Ireland will still go with Royal Mail. This band charge remains the same.

Orders ( UK ) over 8 cm thick & up to 15 kg now go with Hermes.
Hermes prices increased 17/6/13
Hermes can be tracked, is fully insured & you can specify a safe location to leave parcels if you are out. Just let us know if you want us to put this on your package.

Orders over 15 kg or urgent orders by arrangement with us will go by APC.

We have in fact reduced postage costs on larger orders. This is our new order value pricing structure.
We may revise as things go on.
£0·01 - £50·00 ........... £4·50
£50·01- £75·00 ........... £5·70
£75·01 & up ...... £7·50

New Life Spectrum Cichlid Formula

On our last batch of Cichlid Formula 2.2kg buckets we identified some which were packed under weight.This was an error in the US packaging machine. Most of our buckets are up to the proper weight but the few we have found cannot obviously go out for sale as is so we decided to sell these off as loose 500g bags for a knockdown price of £20 each. We do not normally do this with brand name product but this is a special case.
It's first come first served as stock is limited.

At last. I finally put a page together on the trip to Colombia.

We caught this Pimelodella in the Amazon 2012. It quickly adapted to taking our Red Astax granular feed. The size of it's stomach shows how much he took at this feeding.
In fact Pencils, Hatchets, various Characins, Cichlids etc started taking this granule in the rainforest fish house shortly
after capture.


One of the Rivulus rubrolineatus populations we collected. We brought fish back to the fish house & they soon settled down to a diet of Red Astax granule, brine shrimp & freeze dried Pacific Krill. All are available on this site.
Now we are succeeding in breeding many of the Rivulus we brought back.

New In
Live Freshwater Rotifer cysts
These you can hatch.

New in ...A brand new diet for Killifish in a tiny flake
We have been experimenting with this on our wild caught Rivulus & Guppies. They love it.

Why do top UK & EC breeders buy from us ?

Probably because this website brings together the best fish feeds available worldwide. We buy from top aquaculture feed manufacturers & small producers who make small amounts of high quality product. We have bred loads of fish species & have been doing so since the 1960's.
We have spent years & a lot of money trying to find the best foods to feed our fish & offer here an alternative to what most websites offer because they don't come close to our years of experience in the trade.

 

Solution Graphics

It really is about time UK specialist fish keeping associations got a boost. I am involved in some associations & it's a tale of reducing members all the time. It doesn't have to be like this. They need more support. You can get so much knowledge & even fish to breed from these associations. That's why we are supporting UK fishkeeping associations like - British Killifish Association, British Cichlid Association, British Livebearer Association, Catfish Study Group.
Listed below are links to see what they offer. Please click on a site & join up..

Fresh Tropical Flake which looks the best we've ever seen
Now save even more money when buying multiple packs
We have sold literally hundreds of kilo's of this flake
with a great many repeat orders.
See 'Flakes' page for details.

 

We looked all over the web for spare sponges & couldn't find anything available to UK fish keepers so we had our own molds made up & the types on the sponge page are the first to come in.
New molds & designs will hopefully be added later.
These are made from high quality foam which is 100% safe for aquatic life & tested extensively.

Some of our range....

Brine Shrimp Eggs, Nets & Sieves

We import large quantities of Brine Shrimp eggs. Our customers include breeders; importers, retailers, live food growers, Cod/Turbot fisheries.
The shrimp in the photo above are grown on from these eggs & sold in retailers all over the UK.

We have imported literally thousands of these pouches - 185 sold in one week, April 2010

A common remark from new customers is - 'I don't believe it can be this good for the price'.
The next order has remarks like - 'These are the best eggs I've ever hatched'.
These orders are generally for 2, 5, 10 or more pouches.
If I only had one community tank I would hatch these eggs. Live food daily for about 5-10p a day. A few Daphnia in a bag from a retailers is - HOW MUCH?
It's so easy to hatch your own live food. This food is packed with the nutrients fish need.


See 'Brine Shrimp Eggs' link.
GP from the USA..

Bio encapsulated 21st Century food.
Introducing new foods to UK aquarists is where we started off.

Large selection of granular foods

Red Astaxanthin Crumb.
We breed fish commercially. The Red Astax is fed daily to our fish & has been for 3 years.
We need a food we can rely on to grow our fish on fast with good colours.
We, & our customers notice a hightened colouration in fish fed on this diet.
In our opinion this is the best food on the market but as with all things we mix our
feeding with newly hatched Brine Shrimp & other granular / flake foods.  
This is the best value highest grade feed you can give to your fish. We have been promoting it around shows & auctions in the UK for the past 3 years & get regular repeat orders from top breeders. Really BIG importers & farms in the UK get this from us.
A lot of rare South American or African imports you see in retailers have had this feed already during quarantine.

Stick Feeds

Available in Brine Shrimp, Earthworm, Spirulina, Veggie & Spirulina with Paprika & Garlic. These are made in small batches by a small producer to ensure freshness. A really unusual feed we are pioneering in the UK. This is a unique source & not found elsewhere on UK mail order sites. Don't compare this with sticks on e-Bay made up for anglers. These are top quality sticks.
They must be good as we mail out loads of packs in the UK & EC..
We feed these to guppies, wild imported
Corydoras & Brochis etc & they clean them up.
Export orders are now taking a large amount of these sticks.
See 'Sticks' link.

 

Freeze & Sun Dried Foods

Copepod, Bloodworm, Krill, Shrimp etc.. We source this from Canada to Australia.

New fine grade Filter sponges

Spirulina Products

Our powders are farmed in Hawaii & are recognised as the worlds best grade.
New in are Spirulina wafers made up by a small producer in the States. We stack these up against any wafers on the market. Check out the prices & make your own mind up
