    What do you think is the best shop in Dublin for tropical fish?

    Was in Pet Palace on Parnell St 2 weeks ago. Guppies, tetras, swords all looked great. Came back this week and they all seemed to have fin rot!

    Only two options imo: Artane Aquatics on the North Side or Seahorse Aquariums out by the red cow.

    Wouldn't trust anyone else. Seahorse have more space so would usually have a greater selection but Artane Aquatics are better priced and rotate their stock regularly, Gavin's got a great eye for interesting rarities and is a top bloke to boot :)

    Thanks guys. Looks like Seahorse is the closest to me. I assume it's close enough to the Luas.

    Only just got back into the hobby after a couple of years with coldwaters.
    Forgot how addictive it is!

    I have bought fish in Newlands Garden centre at Newlands cross and have had no issue with them. Seahorse is excellent.
