Lovely fella, amazing 👏 knowledge. Easy to work with and talk to. Lovely set up and spotlessly clean in the shop. All the water is crystal clear. Some lovely fish and live plants. I'll be going back soon. Prices not to bad, not the most expensive or cheapest but the customer service makes up for it ten times over. 🤔
For a tropical fish shop in Dorset this one is the best one I been in!

Great shop for everything fish related. Duncan and Aimee make a brilliant team. Duncan is very helpful and knowledgeable. His main concern is to ensure welfare of the fish and enjoyment of his customers so he is very happy to impart his knowledge. He has helped me and my husband no end during and since setting up our aquarium just over a year ago.
The fish tanks in the shop are always immaculate and the fish are very healthy. Again, Duncan is very helpful suggesting what would go well in our community tank without being pushy at all. They stock a lot of different lines and have a lot of choice

A nice little aquascaping store. Pleasant and knowledgeable staff, nice selection of hardscape and live plants. Also, the walls are all covered in aquascaping and aquarium keeping products. The plants are sold in-vitro or potted/stems in a three tier system. They also sell livestock fish etc. Which is a nice touch as other aquascaping stores don't usually do this.
The price of the plants was also better than some other stores I've been to.
They also had some Bucephalandra which is not often available.
Only criticism: *Some* of the plants were a bit worse for wear. But this comes with using a

Absolutely the best aquatic supplier in the area, nothing is too much trouble. Livestock is always healthy and well looked after.
Tank scaping in the shop is stunning.
Excellent range of everything you need.
Personally won't go anywhere else now.
Thank you for putting the effort in and looking after your customers so well.

I wasn't entirely happy with the overall experience on the first couple of visits. I am a new fishtank owner and I had not given the shop owner an entirely accurate description of my tank. This led to him giving me advice that he would have ordinarily not have given. I have since found his advice top notch and he has gone out of his way to make sure we prepare our tank correctly. Apologies for the previously unfair rating. I would happily recommend this shop to any new fish tank owners. Thanks for your help and advice. We look forward to coming back and buying our first fish from you.

Lovely little shop with a great range of tropical fish and products, all for very fair prices. Being new to the hobby, I found Duncan really helpful in answering all of my beginner questions in depth when setting up my first tank. When visiting other fish stores I've found that staff can be sometimes unhelpful and abrupt, so glad to have found this place! Will definitely be returning.
