In the main room there are banks of tanks on four walls with more tanks in a room leading off.
In the centre is an excellent selection of bunched plants, as well as a very good range of Tropica potted plants. Underneath the plants there is Tufa, Ocean Rock and Bogwood, all in a choice of sizes.
All the tanks are very well maintained and contain gravel and plants;- all the plants in the tanks are for sale.
The plant selection and main room

Steve Spencer ....
Steve has been a fishkeeper for many years previously and apart from general tropical fish, was a keen keeper and breeder of Corydoras species. This means that, apart from providing a vast array of fish at "Aqualife", he is able to advise on their upkeep and sort out any aquatic problems you may encounter. If you are in the area, it's well worth a visit as you won't be disappointed with the variety of fish available.
"The Aquarium Gazette"
Aqualife is also the Lancashire outlet for The Aquarium Gazette, a new bi-monthly Tropical Fishkeeping Magazine in computer disc format. If there are any articles that interest you in any past Discs (see Gazette List page) these are also available at the counter.
A few discs of Issues 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10 and 11 are all still available.
In total there are 104 aquariums devoted to Tropical fish, Marines and Coldwater species, as well as Shrimps, Frogs and Amphibians.
