The New Aquastore

Alright, so you're after fish? Then head to The New Aquastore in town. I've been going there for years, ever since my lad wanted a goldfish. They know their stuff. It's got a cracking 4.8 stars from nearly 200 reviews on Google, so it's not just me who rates them.

They've got everything from your standard goldfish to more exotic tropical fish. Plus all the tanks, filters, and gravel you could ever need. They aren’t the cheapest, mind, but you get what you pay for. The staff are always happy to give advice, which is handy if you're a beginner like I was.

Opening hours are a bit all over the place, so pay attention. They're shut Mondays, and Tuesdays they don't open 'til half one. Otherwise, they're generally open 'til six during the week, with slightly shorter hours on weekends. Give them a ring on 01704 213075 if you're making a special trip.

Worth noting: Parking in town can be a pain, especially on a Saturday. Try the multi-storey on Tulketh Street; it's usually your best bet.
