Lynwood Aquatics

Staff are alright. but fish I bought from here gave my whole tank ick and killed the whole tank off.

When asking about their big selection of live plants, I was pointed to the dusty storage room of rainbow coloured fake rubber plants in the back and told that “it would be much easier” if I bought those. The lady who works here is lovely, it’s a shame that the old guy that works there can’t process in his head that good customer service is integral for a small business. Like all these other reviews say, fish are kept awfully. Go to pets at home instead

Drove almost an hour to visit this store after reading the reviews and was honestly disgusted.Very small and cramped store which is understandable, however it looked very unkempt with a strange odour.After looking at all the tanks setup I was disgusted and promptly left. I’ve never seen so many dead fish in an aquatic store before - I understand that they may not have had time but when all employees were sat around talking I think that’s an ideal time to remove these - almost every section I looked in there was a few dead fish or even the remnants of one that’s been eaten (obviously been left in there long enough).Tank maintenance is terrible, a few looked clean but nothing like it shows online. A quick clean never hurts. Bettas kept in absolutely tiny, algae infested tanks and look insanely depressing. More of a horrible sight to see than a disappointment, it’s not hard to put a bit of effort in for the sake of these living things!!Absolutely will never go back. I really hope the owners take better care of their fish.

I went to get a few plants for a nature pond, limited selection of pond plants, started off well when I asked a member of staff for advice who honestly told me he was not the best person to ask but would get someone to help, the lady who came was pleasant enough but the advice offered was to read the labels! The plant prices seemed average but the pond weed was expensive at £4.50 for a sprig.

Visited recently, several fish were either dead, sick or injured and in dirty and over crowded tanks. They certainly won’t be getting our business. It seemed overpriced as well compared to other local places that seem to take much better care of their stock.

From the first call I made the staff here have been super helpful and friendly. They were able to make suggestions based on our sense of style and home set up, guided us with the design and were always responsive as well as proactively keeping me up to date on the status of my order. We live our new tank and cabinet and I cannot wait to start welcoming some fish again with their help and guidance. The store has everything you could need.

Absolutely awful. Seem like they don't have a care in the world for the fish or any form of knowledge about fish or there accommodation for the size of them. when i asked a price about an ancistrus they said to me the ancistrus have all sold and only bristle noses are left. they actually had no idea they are the same fish when i said they are the same they argued with me and told me that an ancistrus is completely different to a bristle nose. Quite shocked as any novice could even point out they are the same. The tanks are disgusting there are fish in tanks that are two small for 5 guppies let alone a fish that is around 13 inches in size where it couldn't even turn around it just swam forward and then swam back I mean the tank was around a foot and a half long by about a foot high and the fish was atleast 13 inches in size also so many tanks had dead fish in. Some tanks with the gold fish in some of the gold fish had severe tail nips due to the amount of them in there and them being cramped. The live plants were dieing it was just an awful experience the place just looks like a junk yard i remember years ago this used to be such a lovely place now I would consider it lower in regards to fish care and fish hygiene and knowledge than pets at home. Also what is with the second hand baby toys and the home made jewellery seems like it's a jack of all trades now but my advice stay clear and I have also reported this shop due to the fish conditions and hygiene and the fish care.

Sold my mum a freshwater tank as a marine tank, wasn’t fit for purpose and very expensive

Great service. Got axsolotyl babies too.. Thank you
