Visited Shirley Aquatics last week, after finding a Cleair aquarium online. We were provided with a friendly service and an abundance of recommendations . Completing our purchase of the aquarium and all equipment required, we were advised that everything would be delivered and completely setup by Wednesday of the following week. Phil and Ollie arrived as agreed Wednesday, very cheerful and friendly…. We couldn’t have asked for two better guys to deliver and setup the aquarium, nothing was too much trouble, even offering to put the stone in the aquarium for us. Many thanks to all at Shirley Aquatics for a fantastic service

We visited Shirley Aquatics Japanese Centre and were amazed at their selection of Japanese Koi with a friend. This was even more surprising as the difficult Koi stockist are having saucing Koi. John Cooke (owner) is a font of Koi knowledge and is happy to pass it on with a great sense of humour. We were both very happy with our purchases and can’t wait to return.

The gentleman who deals with the reptiles was super knowledgeable and super lovely too! Will definitely be returning!

Shirley aquatics please sort your fish tanks out! They are unclean and it’s not nice seeing dead frogs and the fish kept in these conditions. The tanks were filthy, you have broken cupboards and doors hanging open on tanks, cluttered work stations. I witnessed a member of staff pulling a fish in a bag out of a tank and scraping it along the side. Really grim visit. Will not be coming again.

Visited Shirley aquatics today for some advice on some live plants, and advice on some vampire crabs, Nigel who works there is spot on! So friendly, kind & very knowledgeable on everything to do with vampire crabs, took his time with us and explained everything perfect for our new tank set up even showed us his vampire crabs in his own tank. Couldn’t thank him enough for his help! 5stars from us.

We recently visited Shirley aquatics and Penny and Nigel served us, overall it was a really positive experience. The staff were knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about reptiles and their care. They took the time to answer all our questions without rushing us, which made a big difference.

Been coming to Shirley aquatics for about a year now and Nigel and penny has always very every helpful nothing has ever been to much for them would recommend them to any 1

Amazing just bought a crested gecko from Nigel great customer service couldn’t thank them enough

Ok what does Shirley aquatic mean to us! I say us as we always visit as a family, my husband & I along with his parents, sadly it's just we 2 & his/our mum now as Dad passed away a while ago.
We used to visit the original shop in Shirley with the Huge round fish tanks, "a real eye opener as mum would say" stopping for coffee & cake in the wee cafe at the back of the shop!
The New shop is Wow "although it's not really new anymore" luckily for us when they moved they found new premises just around the corner from where mum lives in Longbridge, so we get to visit more often.
The reptile/exotic shop is Fantastic & the open days when they do tutorials on different creatures you can add to your family are also worth the visit.
The staff throughout are always welcoming polite & willing to help on any subject with a genuine smile.
Husband is a PADY qualified diver & soo wants to offer to clean the Shark tank!
In short it's a fantastic place to visit, it can get a tad busy but I think this goes to show just how well managed & popular it is.

Amazing service ! Alice always goes above and beyond with expert advice for my tropical fish set and tank set up. Knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely helpful -thanks to her, i highly recommend Shirley Aquatics!

“Oli and Phil delivered my fish tank today and I couldn’t be happier with the service. They were professional, friendly, and handled everything with great care. The tank was delivered safely and positioned exactly where I wanted it. Their attention to detail and brilliant handling made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Excellent service from start to finish — highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ They really went with the flow and made sure everything arrived swimmingly.” 🐟🌊

Excellent service from Gina and Celia with our new tank. Extra shout out to Celia for escorting us out to the car with our new purchase, thanks again!!

Our Son named Charlie who is autistic visited the store today with his Dad to purchase a new tarantula (which is special interest) A member of staff named Tegan was very patient and understanding and answered all of his many questions. Nothing was too much trouble for her, thank you so much for being so helpful!!

Had a great experience! I was really excited to get some fish after waiting over a month for my tank to cycle... This was the first time I had ever been here and it was a really helpful place...

I was helped by Natalia, she was so informative regarding the selection and care of the fish I wanted. She helped me select the best fish for the tank I had and what fish worked well together (I didn't realize one type of fish I wanted would try and eat the other haha)

Overall it was a great experience and they are lucky to have staff like Natalia. I would definitely recommend if you are looking to get fish as a beginner

My pump broke this morning and I called. Gina talked me through what you had and I popped down at lunchtime. Gina sorted me out with a pump and it is now running.

Please offer her my thanks for helping me (and my fish) out.

Hayley was knowledgeable, friendly and patient. She helped me choose the right fish for my aquarium and advised on other accessories. Would recommend

Great service, The items was packaged very well and arrived on time

I'm a novice to owning a large fish tank, natalia was incredibly helpful, explain what the requirements are. Detailed what to do acclimatise the fish etc. Credit to your store,,. I'll be returning 👍👍

I recently purchased Beefheart discus food from Shirley Aquatics, and I couldn't be more satisfied. Delivered promptly by DHL the following day, the package was well-insulated with freezer packs to maintain freshness. Everything was just as anticipated. Plus, Shirley Aquatics offers a price that's seven pounds less than my former supplier, making it my new favorite shop for orders. A big thank you to everyone at Shirley Aquatics for their excellent service and customer care!
