    This shop is situated inside Dobbies. It's brilliant, the staff are friendly polite and can't do enough for you. The shop is small, dark and perfect to bring the little ones to. There is a small outside section where the sell ponds and large filtration kits. They also sell large koi there and as an added bonus, which I think is a great idea, you can buy koi fish food and let the little ones feed the fish. Excellent shop brilliant service. 👍

    Popped in today looking for some stuff for my turtles, although there wasn’t much for turtles there, the lady working there was super helpful and informative and I ended up leaving with some lovely catfish who are settling in lovely with my turtles! Would really recommend!

    Great place! Staff are very friendly and helpful with excellent customer service skills. Feel like I have made 3 new friends as I've been in there a few times. The staff actually take the time to talk to you about your tank and what fish are suitable and also tell you in depth about the different species and advise you on the best way to keep the fish healthy. Not only that they are very good value for money, with multiple deals on the fish. All the fish in the store are healthy and well looked after and the tanks are all spotlessly clean. It can be hard to trust pet shops at times, but these people you can trust!

    Been to 2 previous Aquariums gave us wrong info and weren’t very customer friendly, we then went to Maidenhead aquatics in Speke and would not look back!!!!, Sarah, Gary and Paul are all excellent friendly and very Helpful! give great advise, and don’t make you feel silly for asking basic questions in fact they encourage you to ask questions!, we love going to the shop for our fish accessories and also to see the staff, they have a wide variety of accessories an everything you want if you want it they have got it, overall we would 100% recommend Maidenhead Aquarium Speke and would not go anywhere else!!!!!.

    Well what can I say that will temp you to visit this store? Let's start with the staff, they are very keen, knowledgeable and will try and help you the best way they can. The shop is packed full of Marine, Tropical and Cold water fish. Whilst I was in the shop they were waiting on a new shipment of Koi to arrive ready for the Pond season. I honestly don't think you could ask for anything more from this store. Worth a visit.

  • 4/5 Paula R. 3 years ago on Google

    In need of refurbishment, good selection of fish but some tanks look dirty and water isn't the cleanest would be hesitant to buy fish

  • 1/5 Leon H. 2 years ago on Google
    Disappointed and saddened to see an entire tank of dead fish near closing time, conditions are poor and despite this the fish are expensive. Needs some TLC. Would recommend trying more local independent fish shops. Staff are kind and helpful however.

  • 5/5 LINDSAY R. 2 years ago on Google
    A friend recommended I visited here as the staff are so helpful and knowledgable. I found that to be completely the case. I purchased several fish for my outside pond which are in great condition and was advised against choosing one for my tropical tank as it is particularly aggressive. The young manager and his 2 staff could not have been more helpful.

  • 5/5 Kelvin H. 3 years ago on Google
    One of the best Maidenhead aquatics in the North West. By far has the most friendly and Knowledgeable staff ready to help. Whether your a beginner or advanced in the hobbie the staff here will be able to help you with whatever you need. Great prices and a wide range of both tropical and marine fish you cant go wrong. The fish in the tanks always look amazingly healthy which is important, they look after them. Never any dirty tanks. The store also poses a massive range of decorations, filters and stones. Special mentions to Gary and Paul who always make you feel welcome and do everything they can to make sure you leave a happy customer. Exceptional customer service. I highly recommend 👌
