Fish and Aquatic Pet Supplies Deals & Offers

I saw it 99p in Lidl & Morrison too

Standard Amazon Postage price for them "non prime people" that are among us still.

Sorry cold, postage is a joke.

Only available from fresh and have to spend £40 minimum.

I think you may be correct as well... I was thinking out loud really.

Are you for real?

I use the Wilko homebrewing ones (2 for £3) on my tank and they're accurate according to my more expensive digital thermometer.

These work well for fermention buckets for any budding homebrewers out there.

This is for Aquarium not for Humans.. just read the description

Plenty out there if you really want them https://www.amazon.co.uk/Festnight-Forehead-Thermometer-Strips-Reusable/dp/B08693HBNX/ref=sr_1_19?dchild=1&keywords=forehead+strip+thermometer&qid=1587308443&sr=8-19

Back in-stock April 20th

Hopefully it all seems to be getting back to normal in the shops (y)

Got some from Superdrug online last week. Just thought I'd point out what's out there in the shops.

I have been struggling to find hand sanitiser. Popped into my local Superdrug at the weekend and there were plenty. Limit 2 per person. Very happy.

Bought this back in December and have to say it’s one of the best hand washes I’ve used. Would definitely buy it again

I get a lot of wildlife in my pond including loads of frogs, damselflies and numerous creepy crawlies despite having pump, uv clarifier and filter box and goldfish. Also get the odd heron of course and mallards during the mating season, which I'm less keen on since they eat the fish.

This kit worked great for me - went from a fully green pond to a clear one quickly. And it's still got lots of wildlife in there, albeit it's a giant pond so only sucking up from the very bottom middle of it.

I've got a smaller version of the pump, I believe the actual manufacturer is SunSun. You may still be able to find an identical pump cheaper, or the same pump unit in a slightly different enclosure if you shop around. When I bought mine, I found all pond solution branded ones were more expensive than identical models sold under the sunsun brand. Same applied to the UV filter I bought a few years earlier, also a Sunsun, I was surprised by the quality, which was why I took a punt on one of their pumps. Posted the filter here (no longer available of course) https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/pond-uv-clarifier-11watt-2989-other-models-for-moreless-at-activeleisure-ebay-1316355

If you're planning on setting up a pond for wildlife, frogs etc, please just buy a fountain/pump without the uv filter part. I made a new pond 2 years ago, and admit the full kit did clear the water, but following the winter break I realised my mistake, so many pond creatures caught in the filter part that I stopped using it. The pump is enough to circulate the water, but I use it sparingly, as it does suck up a lot of pond life.

Because its cruel, common sense really..

Fake photo! (there's food in the freezer cabinet) ;)

You can keep a goldfish in a small bowl in the same way you could live in a wheelie bin.

By the time you wait in the queue the Fish will die , we stood in th queue for over an hour in Wembley

Fish tanks are great, but research what you want. Learn the nitrogen cycle, find out how to condition a new tank, work out what fish you want, how many of them, compatibility with tank mates, how big a tank can you afford or fit in your home

Other than using your bare hands you could argue that all modern fishing equipment is a form of cheating from state of the art lures, high tech reels, alarms and micro filaments etc.at what point do you stop?

Is this not cheating though i thought fishing was about skill and the thrill of the chase? (mad)

If that's what you really think, then I feel so sorry for your partner. And please, PLEASE, do not share the footage.

AKA, how to get arrested at your local swimming pool. :{

Good find. Great bit of kit!

Huge thanks :) ,saved me a small fortune (y)

Thanks. Saved a tenner. Dog loves those wolf of wilderness treats. ;)

Huge thanks for this! Just ordered and code went through fine.

Buy lots from zooplus, cheers op

Great find op, heat added, just ordered some dog food thanks

Never... but don’t see why they wouldn’t work.

Ever tried then in the sea for LRF?

So is this like pre-seasoning for the fish? Do they taste better when seasoned alive? I have to know.

Dont taste very nice

I thought they were some kind of edgy candy.

20p now if you can find it

Oos

This one smells amazing, but doesn't moisturise as much as I wanted, but for smell, this one smashes it out of the park!

Bit late obviously but can you tell me where you got your tank from and how much, on the verge of buying a 300ltr tank... but naturally now i want a 450ltr one!

And your point is? But claiming to have 64 fish in 15 litres I think you may be trolling.

Trolls are out in force, I have a 15l life. Check my water twice a week. Change water once or twice a week. Ammonia 0, nitrites 0, nitrates usually about 20-30. Fish are happy, all 64 of them (lol)

Give me a brake mate. I am not an expert nor professional However i am going by the recommendation of the manufatctor at the time of sale, and by the local aquarium shop as to buying filters adding water conditioner and biological...ect Like i said. My tank is always crystal clear. By the time it becomes slightly cloudy it would have been time to replace part of the water. If your fish tank is not clear mate than it would be you who needs to search youtube and find out why. Have a good day. Also dont judge a book by its cover.

Doesn’t sound like you know how to look after fish. Crystal clear water doesn’t mean it’s clean. As for a full clean every 2 months that barely gives the tank time to cycle. YouTube is full of great video’s which will teach you all you need

Wow that looks amazing! The fish being the star of the show!

It’s good fun!

Yeah, looking forward to it now! Thanks

That's a very good heater. Looks like you're all set to start cycling your filters now.

I bought a heater today. Made sure it had the protective cover over it. Got the bomb aswell to help the cycle along

I have a small resealable bag that i put about a months worth in. That way I'm not opening the large tub every day and it lasts longer. If you want to go overboard you can put some silica gel in with it.

In general I prefer granules or pellets, they are not going off so fast and create less mess in the tank (y)

Never find it's worth getting large tubs. By the time you're half way through the flakes are starting to disintegrate into powder and become too small for some fish to eat.

Please research cycling an aquarium before buying this

This is insane

Wow, thanks for all your information, much appreciated (y)

I wouldn’t be comfortable going too much below a 4ft/200 litre tank. Ideally you will want a small sump tank (often located underneath your main tank in the cabinet) as this will allow greater surface skimming. If you wanted to keep with the same manufacturer, the below tank is a reasonable size. It is currently reduced, but not sure if best deal out there. elmpets.co.uk/aqua-one-horizon-182-aquarium-cabinet-p-11061.html There are specific marine tank setups from the same manufacturer (Aquareef). There is a 195 litre with smaller dimensions, however I’d be inclined to go towards the 300 or 400 due to the increased swimming space. I believe this rang have an integrated sump in the cabinet. You can use a smaller tank, depending on how you want to stock it but, on the basis of chemistry changes occurring faster in smaller volumes of water and the cost of marine fishkeeping, I’d suggest going for the largest tank you can accommodate. As with any live animals, the more research you can do, the better. If you have a specific fish/type of fish in mind, find out what its living requirements are before buying it. Alternatively, you can decide what tank size you can accommodate and research good setups for that size of tank. Beware of forums, as everyone has different (and not always correct) advice. There are plenty of sites (search practicalfishkeeping - uk site etc.) which have information pages for all different types of fish to help you make up your mind. If you ensure you don’t buy anything that requires a larger volume of water when fully grown than your tank can provide and you don’t over stock, you won’t run into future issues regarding insufficient tank size.

You mean they are alive....

Cold on your comment you have not mentioned a 1000l tank.

My third chamber lowered to the pump rapidly set up as intended. I removed sponge from centre chamber filled it with matrix and alfagrog and put one long course sponge along the first chamber grills and my heater is in first chamber also, in centre chamber i have the pre-filter sponge on top. So far no drainage in third chamber and a lot more media in the filter. Tank is running very well, i have Cory Hastatus breeding which are notoriously difficult but it isn’t designed for fry unfortunately so they don’t make it at least as far as i know (it’s densely planted).

The £125 105L tetra from argos is better value.. I also used vouchers and got it for £75

The 3rd chamber is supposed to drain as evaporation occurs, you just keep it topped up occasionally. Its not a bad design, its a normal sump system unless your mainly referring to the light timers ?

i have the Spec 5 60l, my wife has the smaller flex. Thought the chambers were the same. Had issues with light timers too on the tanks and had to modify the filter to keep the third chamber full of water. Not a great design to be honest but i do like the tank.

thanks we will be getting a testing kit. just no point getting one till after we get fish. as the shop going to test it for free. before we can even buy any fish and i have to say more shops should do this.

Good luck with it. I'd suggest a small group of Danios to get the nitogen cycle going. Well worth investing in your own testing kit as well.

Little update i got my self a 2nd hand Fluval Roma 200 Litre and is the same as the one linked apart from it is the none LED version and ended up costing me £100 plus around £30 in fuel (it did not come with anything else e.g filter). The guy i was buying it from had 5 tanks and a pond. he was selling up 4 tanks and keeping his smallest one and his pod (so he can move the fish in, in the winter) I done some water tests to check for leaks as when i arrived the tank was empty. checked the hood and lights all worked. he had cut out some slots in the hood to connect a external filer. this did not bother me as i was going 2 do the same but i may of cut the hole about a inch from the end of the hood rather then at the end of it. The guy helped me carry it to my car (defo need 2 guys to move the tank). when i got home set it up and done some water test over the next 2 days to check for leaks and all seems to be ok. so at the weekend took my little boy to the pet store to pick up items for the tank, filters, heaters, landscaping/display items. plants. will let the tank run a week before getting any fish. the guy said with the medication for the tank we are using we can get fish in 3 days and they will need water from the tank to do a PH/Water test, they will do for free normally cost £1. to be far i thought we had to let the tank run a month before we can get fish and the guy said yes 1-2months if you dont use any medication. P.S the filter we got was a Fluval 407 (this does 500L) and was the cheapest price i has seen this filter in shops or online (shop was called Coral Reef and is located in Glasgow). Before people say this filter is over the top we are looking to run the tank as a fish tank (tropical) as my son want some fish before moving it on to a turtle tank.

This is nonsense. Plenty of excellent used tanks out there. New tanks can also leak as well if the factory silicone job isn't up to scratch. Just make sure you do a wet test on any tank before you do anything else.

is it out of stock by the looks of it?

Seems quite a bit more expensive than I'd expect for a 60L tank, if I'm honest.

Doesn't seem particularly good value to me. Stand without any storage and an internal filter which will barely get the job done.

I think these were about £90 at swell uk when i was looking last week .

OK price, but a very small tank not many fish you would want in something this size. Alright as a Betta tank, shrimp tank or even a quarantine /hospital tank to support your main tanks

I like the way you think. been keeping my eyes on Gumtree and facebook market place for a tank. i just missed out on a 200L tank (Fluval 200L) with stand, Pump, heater and some other stuff for £100. have seen alot of 125L and 250l+ I have space 43" in length so stuck to 200L or under but want to get close to 200L as possible as going to be used for turtles as want them to have as much room as possible and I am going to be making a basking area on the top of the tank so they have the full range of the tank. So i would be looking to get a new PUMP (2 to 3x the size for the tank) to keep it clean. I am now also going to keep my eyes on Preloved classified. i did not even think about looking there thanks man. Good price for the tank tho.

Not sure many people have these sort of cash to splash out on a new tank. I bought an pre-owned 170L juwel tank with tropical fishes and ornaments for £70 from Preloved classified. I had to travel 25miles and got a car to pick it up. Had to cleaned out the tank as they had a snails problem, but it's worth the effort for the saving. Now been 2 years and still going strong.

Tanks very much but bit fishy to me lol

good deal. I'm holding out for a corner tank...

Does this TV only show fish shows and more importantly what bit rate does it have? Only jesting have some tropical fish heat.

API freshwater kit is ok, for saltwater pretty useless. Salifert test kits are the minimum for saltwater.

I bet they will love this. You can go around a Aquarium afterwards as well.

they do and very good too <3

I know they have a Nike outlet there ;) That's about my knowledge of the area I'm afraid

don't have to apologise (y) Cheshire Oaks is advertised as Chester to reflect well, Ellesmere Port only advertised in media if they can bring the place down (highfive)

I think it's usually around a 10 week wait
