** Latest news..... Special offers on Juwel fish tanks **
Whether you're a serious aquatics hobbyist or a first time novice, Highway can provide everything you need.
With an area covering around 2,200 square feet, this impressive centre features over 120 top-of-the-range coldwater and tropical fish tanks.
Gone are the days when owning fish meant a couple of goldfish in a bowl, now there are major decisions to be made. Coldwater or tropical? Bow-fronted or straight? Integrated cabinet or tabletop? It goes on.
This wide choice is simple, it enables you to choose the perfect set-up for any size of room and any level of commitment. Some set-ups will need a lot more maintenance than others, so it's important to understand just what the requirements are.
Retail manager Paul Noble said: "Our staff have excellent background knowledge of fish and their diseases, water quality and breeding and look forward to helping customers with their enquiries and troubleshooting their fishy problems."
