We have been raising money for the Air Ambulance for some years through the charity auctions. We are now registered fund raisers for the County Air Ambulance Trust. We will shortly be putting more information here regarding making a donation yourself through the site but meanwhile this can be done on their website (click picture on left).
The charity auctions are now set up to raise money for this trust which is funded totally through charitable donations - the government pay nothing for this service.

Freeze Dried Tubifex now at almost half price - £6·50 / 100g. This is fresh product Jan 2012. We brought in a big shipment & are passing on our discount to our customers.
Freeze Dried Bloodworm new pack sizes - 100g, 500g & 1kg. Fresh made Jan 2012.
New batch of freshly made Tropical Flake. Over £3,000 of this flake sold over the past few years. It's our budget flake but we feed it to our fish & we get loads of repeat orders for it.

Hopefully the trip to Colombia will come together for April. I have tagged onto a commercial collecting trip which will be a little more dangerous than an organised holiday trip. I'm hoping to take out some of our feeds to try on fish in the wild. Needless to say I will take loads of photos & video to put into the site on return. The downside is the website will close down for at least 3 weeks in April so order early if you will be needing feeds during this month.
Enough people have expressed an interest in a trip for 2013 so hopefully we can sort this out.

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.

Alan Green has been a freind for 3 decades. He is learning how to put a website together & his early results can be found here.
Including the secrets built up over years of experimentation in growing Brine Shrimp.
Alan has done many experiments on the foods available on this site.

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..

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.

We import many of our own branded foods

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

Flake, powder, stick, pellet & blended feeds available. We don't mess with cheap manufacturers with cheap prices. OK we buy the flakes in a little dearer than our competitors but the product is fantastic. Our fish get regular feeds of it & clean it up.
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
