THE BENEFITS OF BUYING LOCAL
Locally bred.
Personally raised.
All the fish and shrimp I sell are locally bred and raised here in Bexley, Kent. Breeding is what I enjoy most, and raising the fish myself means I get to follow their progress before they leave the fishroom.
- Familiar water conditions. When your aquarium has similar pH, GH (general hardness) and KH (carbonate hardness), there is less change for the fish to adjust to. This can make acclimation more straightforward.
- Attention as they grow. I get to watch their development and feeding as they grow, rather than only seeing them once they reach sale size.
- A settled start. The fish grow up with familiar water conditions and a regular feeding routine. My aim is to keep things stable and avoid unnecessary disturbance while they develop.
About my water
GH describes general hardness, mainly calcium and magnesium in the water. KH reflects carbonate and bicarbonate levels, which help buffer against changes in pH. If you would like to know the conditions the fish are used to, just ask.
