fishy lady 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2017 Hi everyone! After a recent unexpected shift to Chirstchurch, myself and my son had to sell and rehome our 3 tropical tanks. We are very much missing having beautiful tropical fish in our lounge. We are after a cheap setup - at least 50 litres , (wouldnt mind going back to a wee few guppies just for now) with all equipment preferably, filter, light and heater etc, if anyone has one to sell? Cheap please if possible, we are on a limited budget - luckily we kept all our cleaning and treatment products though! Also what pet shops are great up here - there are so many! any in-particular we should visit?? Thanks :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Caryl 223 Report post Posted March 21, 2017 When in ChCh I liked to visit Organism (best quality fish) and Redwood Aquatics. Haven't been to a fish shop for a long time now though so I don't know what shops are around since the quakes. Try joining the local fish club, Totally Tanked, as I am sure members could help with setting up again. At the top of this page click on the tab that says Local Clubs to get contact details.

Colour_genes 35 Report post Posted March 21, 2017 Hi, I could help you out with a couple of smaller tanks in the 40ish litre range, also some nice cheap guppies, and some plants for free. PM me if you would like to discuss or have a look. Pet Shops - Try Rodney's Tropicals for fish (look up on facebook) or Redwood Aquatics. Organism didn't seem to be in their shop last time I drove past, they may have moved? 1 Silverdollarboy2 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Russelletino 4 Report post Posted March 27, 2017 I usually just go to Animates in tower junction, Pet central in moorehouse ave and petworld in woolston, are those shops alright? I'm gonna look at redwood aquatics now as I've heard quite a bit about it but is it an actual shop or like a breeder? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Caryl 223 Report post Posted March 27, 2017 Redwood Aquatics is a large shop. Almost opposite Willowbank. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silverdollarboy2 94 Report post Posted March 28, 2017 Redwoods is great! There is also Rodney's tropicals, great prices, fish and service. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Russelletino 4 Report post Posted March 28, 2017 ahhh ok, I think redwood might be a bit too far away from where I live, I am however going to be moving to rolleston in about a month so if you guys know of any shops near there, that'd be great thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adrienne 158 Report post Posted March 29, 2017 Redwoods is closed on a Friday from memory. Organism is online store only these days since the premises were sold. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
