We've just completed a clean and reline job for one of our valued customers, and the results are stunning! The old water fountain was in rough shape, with cracks and leaks, but we didn't let that stop us from restoring it to its former glory.

We removed the feature, cleaned it up, and supplied and fitted a high-quality EDPM boxweld liner. The liner was made to the correct shape and size, resulting in minimal creases and a sleek appearance.

It took the efforts of 4 of our skilled team members to carefully move the heavy feature, but the end result was worth it. The finished product is a beautifully running water fountain that will bring joy and relaxation to all who see it.

Take a look at the before and after photos to see the transformation for yourself. We're proud to provide top-notch service to our customers and bring new life to their outdoor spaces.

Brrr, it's freezing out there! If you have a garden pond, it's important to take extra care during these chilly temperatures. Here are a few tips to keep your aquatic friends safe and healthy:

Don't feed your fish! They'll have a hard time digesting food in the cold water, and it can even be harmful to them. Wait until the weather warms up before resuming their regular feeding schedule.

If your pond does freeze over, avoid breaking the ice. This can be dangerous for you and your fish. Instead, use a pond heater or de-icer to slowly melt the ice and keep a small hole open for gas exchange.

Stay warm and take care of your pond friends!

Happy Chinese New Year, everyone! This year, we celebrate the year of the rabbit, known for its calm, gentle and peaceful nature.

Speaking of rabbits, did you know that there is a species of fish known as the "Rabbit fish"? These fish are a venomous marine species, known for their unique and interesting appearance.

As we celebrate the Year of the Rabbit, we can also appreciate the diversity and beauty of nature. It's a reminder that even the most peaceful and gentle creatures can hold a bit of mystery and danger. And just like in life, in fishkeeping it's essential to have knowledge and respect for the creatures we keep.

Wishing you all a peaceful and prosperous year of the rabbit, and always remember to educate yourself before keeping any fish, specially venomous species.

Freshwater vs Marine, the age-old debate in the aquarium world. Both have their own unique charm, but which one is the real champion?

On one hand, freshwater aquariums offer a wide variety of colorful fish and plants to choose from, and they are often considered to be more budget-friendly. Plus, they're relatively easy to maintain.

On the other hand, marine aquariums are a true showstopper with their mesmerizing array of exotic fish, coral, and invertebrates. They offer a unique and diverse ecosystem, but they can be a bit more challenging to maintain.

So, which one is better? Well, that's up to you! It all depends on your personal preferences, budget, and experience. We can help you with both freshwater and marine aquariums. With our expert team, you can't go wrong. So, whether you want to create a vibrant freshwater paradise or an exotic marine oasis, we've got you covered.

Feeling tropical this Wednesday? 🌺 Well, did you know that Jamaica is home to some of the most colorful and exotic fish in the world? From bright blue parrotfish to neon green wrasse, the waters around Jamaica are teeming with vibrant, tropical fish that are a sight to behold.

So next time you're daydreaming about a trip to Jamaica, don't forget to add a snorkeling or diving trip to your itinerary. You never know what colorful fish you might see! 🐠

We were recently approached by the talented team at Samantha Bartlett Interiors to add some underwater magic to a house renovation in London. They needed not one, but TWO aquariums to complete the look!

We sat down with Samantha and her team to brainstorm some seriously cool designs. After much discussion and debate (and maybe a few fish-themed jokes), we were able to come up with a selection of options that the end client just couldn't resist.

Our friends at then got to work creating the custom cabinetry, while we took care of the rest - sourcing and installing the aquariums, which feature top-of-the-line filtration from OASE UK. The end result? A stunning, one-of-a-kind aquatic paradise that's sure to make a splash with anyone who sees it.

Thanks for having us, Samantha and team! We can't wait to see what other underwater adventures we can go on together.
