| Following a family event in Warwickshire, I paid a visit to our new partners Rare Aquatics, it was only a slight detour off the motorway  , the first time I'd been and it's only about 40 mile from where I live. I have to admit I was like a kid in a sweetshop, although the shop is small compared to some it proves size is not everything. Their stock is amazing, every tank had fish I would love to have, and all quality healthy fish. There was also a great selection of equipment and food. Well worth a visit,  to all at Rare Aquatics |

Only giving credit where credits due.
I bought a couple of L129's on the day and they have settled in really well, which is a reflection on the quality and also the care they received before I got them. |

| I did the same as Jim this week... As i was working in Scotland (Glasgow) on Monday and staying over to travel back on Tuesday, I thought I'd take a detour on the way back to Northampton and visit Rare Aquatics. The shop was very easy to find and only about 5/10 minutes from junction 16 of the M6 Beautifully kept tanks and great fish, all at very good prices too. Unfortuantely as I have said in previous posts, I am in the process of moving which is stopping me from puchasing any more fish... but as I said when I was there... Jo I will be back..!!! Anyone who travels up the M6 it is well worth stopping off when you are on the way back home.  Jon |
