Bates Aquarium And Pet Centre (Permanently Closed)

Very friendly staff that are happy to help you out with any questions you have. It'll be a sad day when they finish closing down and they will be missed.

Well run family business. I have bought fish from here and I find them to be reliable and free of disease (unlike many other pet shops)

A well-stocked independent pet store with knowledgeable friendly staff (who actually care about your pets).

Like pet stores used to be before they were all bought out by corporate behemoths only stocking whatever has the highest margin..

Great range of products, a good old fashioned pet store, with staff who care

If only they were located closer to home. Good range of fish, and the tanks always look healthy.

Staff here are fantastic and friendly. You can see they care about the animals. One issue is Betta that are kept in glasses. Betta are like any other fish and belong in a large space not stuffed in a glass where they seriously suffer in their own waste and shouldn't be sold in tiny tanks.
