UK Online stores

Hey, I was just wondering if anyone could recommend any UK online aquatic stores. I know there are a lot out there but we're not sure of the reliability of them, etc. I've been recommended als store by BrianNY (cheers Brian! ) but unfortunately they dont ship to the UK.

Any ideas?

Cheers, Jon & Liz

Nor sure about online stores, but one of our advisors is a UK [acronym:cc5c963e17="Local Fish Store"]lfs[/acronym:cc5c963e17] owner; try PM Terry and talk to him.

Good luck!

Hi Jon & Liz
I can't recommend any Online stores, but i will try and help if i can. The one thing to check when you are buying online is that the price that they are quoteing includes v.a.t.
Some of the prices look really good until you add the v.a.t, and they turn out to be the same price as the [acronym:e37020764c="Local Fish Store"]lfs[/acronym:e37020764c].
What sort of things were you thinking of buying online.

Well, we need a new tank to put about 24 fry platty in and we've seen a kit for a 7GL tank in a [acronym:9bf4f32dd7="Local Fish Store"]LFS[/acronym:9bf4f32dd7] (the name was and Angel Tank) but it was £35+ not sure exactly. And that seemed to be a bit pricey, so i was wondering about buying the components individually.

We don't really have the room at the [acronym:9bf4f32dd7="mail order"]mo[/acronym:9bf4f32dd7] for a bigger tank than what we already have (We have a Rekord 60) and we just want something to let the fry grow as they are creating too much waste in the main tank.

I have always wanted some angels too, so we thought that we the fry were grown we could get another tank for them and then make the 7GL into an Angel tank.

Basically, we just thought we could save a bit of money and get better equipment, maybe.

What kind of things can you suggest? Do you have anything in particular in your store that would suit?

Thanks,

Jon & Liz
