My experience is pretty much the same as Stuart’s, but I’ve really only been in here twice to pick up some little feeder fish for Neil, my turtle. I was very interested in the aquariums that they have on display, as they’re really good quality tanks. The only thing that’s really prevented me from dropping the cash has been that my home is a very, very long drive from there, and the roads are not particularly friendly to the transport of glass items. The plants are worth a look if you’ve got an aquarium, though. They’re not those crappy ones that some pet shops sell that seem to rot and fall apart in a couple of weeks, these are proper aquatic plants.

Rating des Ortes: 3 Athelstone, Australia
Amazon has a good range of fish, not quite as many of the exotic species you can find at some shops, but definitely more cichlids than many. Plenty of tropicals and varieties of goldies, and a great range of plants that are true aquatics. There’s lots of tanks here, too — and they do customs to match people’s requirements. The display tanks are a testimony to their knowledge, beautiful planted tanks, and a great display with rock and cichlids, too. Lots of parking here, it’s quite an empty centre around with lots of free spaces. The only reason I’m not giving Amazon Aquariums a better rating, the owners and staff aren’t as friendly and helpful as many other stores I’ve been to — in fact, they seem positively withdrawn compared to most.
