8 Millrace Walk, Maple Crossing.
Water testing is available during shop hours.
Freshwater is our whole store.
Fish, rooted plants, a working filter, and enough time to get the setup right. We keep the focus on aquariums people can care for at home.
Bring a photo of your tank, its dimensions and your equipment list. For a new setup, measure the space and check what the stand can support before buying.
We explain what can wait and what needs to be in place before fish arrive. We also help with established tanks that need a more manageable cleaning routine.
Once your tank is ready
Bring fish home carefully.
-
Make us the last stop.
We bag the fish for the trip. Bring an insulated carrier to keep the bag upright and away from direct sun or cold. Go straight home.
-
Follow the bag’s instructions.
We explain an acclimation plan for the fish and your water before you leave. Turn the tank light down and follow those instructions; ask us about any long journey in advance.
-
Keep store water out.
Transfer fish as directed without pouring the transport water into your aquarium. Keep the light low while the fish settle, and check them regularly.
Discuss a separate quarantine setup before adding new fish to an established collection. If something seems wrong on arrival, contact the store with the bag label and water readings.
