   This shop offers fantastic advice and isn’t pushy when it comes to sales, they recommended another business for large tropicals which I really respect, and also recommended somewhere to get worms for my axolotl, which again is very commendable. I was offered very comprehensive and honest advice about moving to marine, and I could tell this family business genuinely cares about their livestock and also the hobby. Even though in the end I only spent £6 on some axolotl pellets, I came away feeling reassured that in future if I need honest advice or guidance from people who genuinely care about the hobby and not ripping you off, this is a really fantastic place to go. Marine selection was spectacularly well priced, I haven’t seen anywhere that’s simply this reasonable for marine fish but especially frags/coral which are all immaculate. Even though the owner knew I was only really looking for advice (given none of the tropical fish were large enough for my tank) I felt she really took the time to fully explain and give proper grounded information on how to jump into marine from tropical, so I really do appreciate that and I’ll be sure to be back. Thank you once again for the advice and time you took to explain the process, and at the point I’m in the market, I will certainly be back. If you want small tropicals this is a fantastic shop, as I pointed out the word octopus meant I never found it before, if you want marine it’s genuinely excellent and very fairly priced.

   I had a great experience at Octopus 8 Aquatics. Their customer service is excellent—friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to give clear, honest advice. They helped me choose a fish that was perfect for my setup and guided me on the equipment I needed without pushing anything unnecessary. Prices were very reasonable for both livestock and gear, and the quality was impressive. It’s clear they really care about their animals and their customers. I’ll definitely be returning. Highly recommended for anyone looking to start or expand their aquarium!

   These guys are experts, you can hear and see the enthusiasm for the hobby, have some stunning coral and fish for tropical and marine enthusiasts. We travel a fair old distance to get there but, every trip there has been a pleasure. The staff are also very friendly and helpful. I couldn’t recommend anywhere in this hobby more highly.
