Hi,
I live in Ireland but am driving over to Leeds for a week via the ferry in Scotland and was wondering if you guys could reccomend some good shops or even aquariums to vistit on my trip. Anything within a few hours of Leeds or Stranraer would be great.
Looking to see some oddballs and hopefully pick up one or two things that I cant get in Ireland before I leave.
Going tomorrow so any advise would be greatly appreciated asap.
Thanks
BobCat
 
The Deep looks interesting, do they do freshwater? I'm def. going to check out wharf, Ive heard all about it.
Havnt heard of World of Water, il look it up. Thanks
 
if you are going past the wigan area try pier aquatics iam going tomorrow hopefully for some more JD and maybe a bichir they are good for oddballs and they have aros, rays and i think they have zebra plecos ther as they have got a pair but sell most of them on ebay
 
Depends which way you go when you get off the ferry in Stranraer. Glasgow has some good lfs. I'm heading out to one right now!
Paisley Road/Paisley Road West is where you want to try. Aquarium Design and Coral Reef are my two regulars, both near The Grand Old Opry - most Glasweigans know where this is - not far from The Quay, southside of the river, near the Kingston Bridge. There are a couple more along the road from them - Waterworld and M&R Dogfish. Good luck and happy hunting.....

It's nice to see some more UK, MFK'ers around.

I second that one!

When i was in Aquarium Design earlier on today (ordering my 100US Gallon tank!) the Royal Whiptail plecos they've had for a few weeks had spawned in their display tank, so they must be taking good care of their fish!
