    Hope this isnt the wrong place....read the charter and didnt say it wasnt ,so....

    I'm looking at buying a tropical aquarium; ive looked so far in Blanch petstop and Fishfx. Both seem to stock the same tanks (im looking at a 200~L Juwel tank). Are there any other places to look at to buy this equipment? I've seen mention in a couple of threads about a place in Blessington? :confused:

    Also, do any places have a larger variety of fish. Naturally, i wouldnt be buying the fish yet, but would like to check out some interesting bottom-dwellers and the like to add some interest to the tank :)

    Thanks,

    Gary

    I wouldnt buy from there as they are very expensive and they always ram their link down your throat every chance they get.

    Killkenny aquatics is the best place in the country to buy fish and equipment and also one of the cheapest http://www.kilkennyaquatics.ie/

    Aqua village in Blessington is also very good and have a great range of fish.

    The best bit of advice i can give is to shop around as the cost of tanks vary alot from place to place.

    Killkenny aquatics is where i buy all my equipment as its cheaper thank other places even though i live in Dublin but its worth the trip every now and then.

    Most people like what they hear.
    You cant win them all.
    After you have shopped around you might want to speak to me.

    There is a new fish store opening in Ashbourne "Aquarium Solution" Iv heard its going to be great with a wide range of live stock and very competive prices! Opening the end of May. It'd be worth the wait! Best of luck.
