Reviews of Maidenhead Aquatics Leicester
h. s.
Jack and James really took the time and effort to help me replace an item that had a 2 year warranty and had almost expired, I was missing my receipt as well.
They dug the invoice up for me, made a few calls and managed to get an approval of replacement straight away for me. They went beyond my expectations. Thank you. What a team, keep it up
J. B.
Has everything that you need for your pond or aquarium, the fish are good quality, and the staff are very friendly and helpful also very knowledgeable. The only thing is that they're not the cheapest shop, but you get what you want. We always use them.
K. J.
Great store, fish well cared for , staff knowledgeable and good customer service, comprehensive range of fish related items
M. S.
We just wanted to thank Jake for all his help and advice. He always been great in helping us.
A. W.
There is usually an experienced member of staff in store to offer advice, and I've found the fish to be generally in better condition than other stores in Leicester. I've bought a pretty vast amount over the years, and most fish have thrived apart from one batch of Cardinal Tetra which didn't seem very healthy. However the Discus, Blue Rams, Zebra Loach, Rasbora, Shrimp, etc have been good.
M. W.
Very busy today but well worth the wait. Good customer service
C. B.
First visit with my grand daughter, she was enchanted to see so many different species. All well cared for and the display tanks all easy to see.
V. T.
Normally fantastic but it gets harder to get served here. Staff are very helpful when you manage to get one though.
K. S.
Happy with my purchases and advice given by assistants. Got to work and installed my little pond so alls good.
H. D.
All I can say is a huge thank you to all the staff at Maidenhead. Not only have they helped me out with a broken marine tank but also now with supplying me a perfect pump ... 3 years later after my original died. They are always ready to help and go above and beyond in their customer service. Thank you.
G. J.
A large shop with plenty of choice and a good selection of fish for every tank type. We have a couple of aquatics shops closer to home and haven't bought live fish from here yet. But will definitely use them rather than the shops closer to us next time.
K. T. g.
Friendly knowledgeable staff. Varied equipment, fish stock and plants. Also nice to have a coffee in the neighboring farm cafe too
D. M.
Excellent, great choice of stock combined with polite and knowledgeable staff 👍 …
S. B.
We went to visit the fish/pet store that selling fish there, some are expensive and some have a reasonable price. Some fish are dead and should be removed.
R. G.
Top place to get all your fish products and the staff james and josh are very professional and give great advice
m.
Absolutely excellent service from these guys. We had an issue with the lighting on our fish tank, previously purchased from them, but we had no proof of purchase. Even so, they sourced a replacement part and did not even charge us. Outstanding customer service. Highly recommended.
M. B.
This place has a large selection of fish and each tank is labelled with notes on how best to look after each type of fish. The staff are really knowledgeable and friendly, they are always happy to help and will ask questions to make sure the fish you want are right for your tank. The quality of the fish here are also far better than other "pet" shops I have tried in the past. Maidenhead aquatics is the ONLY place I will get my fish from now.
A. H.
Really extensive (in fact massive) choice of fish, hardscape, plants and all things aquatic. They have genuinely knowledgeable guys working there who are happy to help and suggest stocking options and tanks for beginners.
Unfortunately, I noticed that some of their Betta had severe Ich and we're still for sale. Fair play to them, they pulled them as soon as this was highlighted. It does happen and it is very busy in there at times.
They carry a lot of fish that other shops don't and have a superior choice, so they are worth a look.
D.
Realy knowledgeable staff , the tanks are kept so clean not to mention the fish!! Such a incredible choice of tetras , all the way to your Oscars :) great place great staff will.be going there again 🤟 …
c. s.
My 9 year old son loved looking at all of the fish. Lots of variety at good prices

Very friendly staff. Looked nice and tidy. A good variety of aquarium life to choose from. Love looking round this shop.
A. L.
Good selection of aquatic products, plants and fish. Knowledgeable and friendly staff.
B. A.
Big huge thank you to Josh and Jake at the Maidenhead Aqutics palmers garden Center. They helped me out with a problem with parts fir my external filter and great advise . Many thanks again lads . Also James is a top bloke as well but it was his day off 😆. …
t.
Friendly and helpful staff. Fantastic selection of freshwater including the unusual, and marine selection is great, with healthy fish. Certainly the best in the area for fish. If you stocked more sps, then it would be a one stop shop.
N. L.
Me and my Husband came here last week to buy a pond and waterfall. A staff member called James couldn't of been more helpful, he went above and beyond to find us everything we needed and explain how to set it all up. Really nice shop sells everything you would possibly need. Would highly recommend.
J. G.
Well worth a look all sorts of fish and coral.
g. J.
Everything you might need to improve your fish's life
A. R.
The staff at the shop are very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about all thing to do with the fish world.
I. R.
Great choice and helpful staff. Advised us comprehensively at each step of the process. Going from complete novices who had never kept tropical fish before, to choosing, purchasing, kitting out and cycling our first tank. Then recommended how to stock and maintain going forwards. Highly recommended.
A. A.
Great store. Staff know what they are talking about, don't push products and know about what stocking will work. They won't sell you anything inappropriate if you ask for advice. The best part is they have a large range of fish, many that no other stores in Leicester have. The staff are also happy to get fish in for you if they aren't stocking what you are looking for.
D. J. (. L.
If you want to start or have tropical or salt water fish this place is amazing. So many different fish to choose from. They said they had a limited selection so can not imagine what we'll stocked looks like. Easy to talk to very informative. Going again today.
L. R.
Great selection of tropical take grass. Just would've liked more of a brand selection of food but thats just me. Great tanks, fish selection and friendly staff. What more could you want 😁 …
S. R.
Got some fish for my lovely wife to put in her fish tank because I can't catch any so she says
P. W.
Staff is usually very helpful, although sometimes the store is busy so you have to keep waiting to get help. If you are in a hurry this can be annoying. Good selection of equipment, tanks, livestock and supplies. Good prices and they also price match.
J. C.
Good selection of stuff.
L. C.
The staff are helpful, knowledgeable and will go that extra mile for you. Fantastic variety and selection of good quality live stock. Brought fish and plants for my Home 80 aquarium and couldn't be happier.
N. N. S.
Very knowledgeable staff, with a fantastic selection of fish including freshwater, marine and cold Inc large pond fish. Very large store with a good selection of paraphernalia to browse including a nice tank collection. Set within the grounds of a large garden centre too 😊 family friendly 😊 happy all round will definitely use and recommended again.
k. e.
Lovely little place tucked away at parmers garden centre. Great selection of cold water and tropical fish always have a great range of tanks and all the equipment you need for them. Staff are very friendly and helpful.
S. E. C.
This place is fantastic. Never seen so many beautiful fish in one place before. Lovely helpful staff who know what they are talking about. Will be going again
A. R.
We have a marine tank so am in here a lot ! Very knowledgeable, friendly staff. Fish purchased are healthy and always do well in the tank.
A. C.
Myself, my husband and my children are always made to feel very welcome everytime we visit to the Maidenhead Aquatics store at Leicester.
All of the staff are charming and helpful.
As a Cichlid keeper with multiple tanks that contain many different varieties of Cichlid, I particularly ask for one of two members of staff for help.
I believe their names to be, 'Thomas' (tall gentlemen with tattoos) and a Lady, who I believe goes by the name of 'Emma-Leigh' (long curly hair).
I find that these two people in particular have good knowledge and understanding of the different Cichlid species and how to keep them.
There was a recent occasion where I was genuinely appalled by a member of public and her behaviour in this store.
In this event, a member of the public used some particularly offensive language towards a member of staff, who was clearly distressed, also in the presence of small children.
I believe this kerfuffle was caused by the customer, an immature older woman who I witnessed (and I will happily write a statement about if needed), leaning over the young member of staff who was trying to scoop fish into a net.
I heard this member of the public trying to manipulate the rules of 'No choosing individual fish while social distancing measures proceed' By telling the member of staff that she wanted individual fish for her two year old son.
This member of staff tried her best to get different fish but the older woman was not happy.
Of course this was taking up time and I was waiting to be served by this member of staff in particular.
I witnessed that this young member of staff was trying to explain to this woman (who should have known better being approximately in her late 40's), that there were people waiting (I was one of them) and it was becoming difficult and was clearly uncomfortable with being leaned over, as stated several times. This was when the older woman called this member of staff an unpleasant name and then, being too upset (as I would have been too in said situation) I was not able to be served by this member of staff, who I was hoping to seek advice from.
Therefore, my only criticism about this store is that there should be no exception of foul language and rude behaviour towards staff. It is just damn right rude and disrespectful.
The public NEED to be more aware of the fact that rules are only there to protect ourselves and eachother in times of Covid-19.
Stay safe.
p.
These guys have helped me develop my marine fish hobby for the last few years.
They are informative and honest about my fish choices and will help me plan for the future as well as making suggestions for things I haven’t seen but I may like and will go into my tank without causing hassle with the current fishy residents.
Having traveled around for fish advice I can quite happily say this is the best fish shop in a 20 mile radius and I am pretty sure I have been to all of them!!!
A. T.
They have a great range of products for your pond or aquarium. From live stock to plants and equipment. The staff are very helpful albeit a little scarce at times when you want help or to buy something. All in all a great place to visit on a Sunday afternoon.

L. D.
I think the guy who served us was relatively new to the job, but I only got this impression by the way the other lads spoke to him! His customer service was spot on, very friendly and helpful. Thank you
R. M.
Very knowledgeable and friendly staff good selection of livestock and accessories
S. S.
Nice large range off various equipment for ponds or aquariums.
A. H.
Cant fault this place if you're not an aquarium expert (I'm not!). Other people have told me it's pricey but I'll pay it for the knowledge of the guys there. Were flexible with my package deal years ago too. Bit of A, bit of B. So always ask.
t. j.
Excellent staff with alot of knowledge always helpful and friendly.
C. C.
Very friendly & helpful staff. Huge selection of fish from cold-marine. A little more expensive than some other pet shops but I'd prefer to pay the extra because you know it's quality.
C. G.
JAMES WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND !!!
I purchased my new fish tank recently from these guy's and James was the gentleman that assisted me and answered all my million plus questions and even helped me to my car as I was on crutches.
I live in London so after setting up the tank the light was not working in the tank. Rang up the store and James helped and advised me to go to my local store which was Enfield.
The employees there need to learn how to speak to humans or have a non customer facing job as they were very rude and not helpful what so ever. I will never set foot in there again.
Called up James again and he willingly got onto the distributors and shipped a replacement part to me directly and i'm yet to install the part.
Credit where credit is due James had great customer service. Made my experience so much better and delivered in a way I would not of expected.
When in Leicester again, happy to spend more money 100%
He needs a pay rise, lol.

Based inside 'Palmers Garden Centre' it was a bit of a hidden gem, the guys especially Matt was very informative of all knowledge fish related but Inc how to incorporate new fish into my tank. I had basic knowledge going into fish keeping but he was definitely helpful, I plan on going back an getting more. Definitely a 10/10 (the image is my tank not 1 of theirs)
