Web Shop Recommendations For Nice Plecs?

[MermaidMel]

Apart from trop fish finder, are there any GOOD sites that don't hike their carriage and deliver healthy plecs? UK please

Trimar do plecs, and Wildwoods posts plecs also.

So do Wholesale Tropicals (London). You'd have to call for stock though but their quality stock is great and prices not bad.

forgot about that one lol....yep they're an excellent shop also.

thats the pick of the bunch really, wholesale, wildwoods and trimar, all top notch and good for plecs

Can't get much better than wildwoods and trimar. Ive been getting plecs from trimar for years. Never had one die either. Sold a few on mind. Got a £105 L25 from them over 3 years ago. Still going strong, and she is now over 14 inches!

Yeah BUT wildwoods got their plecs in 6.5ph and mine is 8!!

i found that wildwoods was'nt very good
lack of proper insulation and not enough packing , i nearly lost one of the plecs i ordered because of it

I've bought plecs even some very rare loaches from Wildwoods and they're thriving! And my pH is around 8 to from tap - though once my tank is around 7-7.5 or so (I think) with all the wood etc). So it really shouldn't be too much of a problem if you acclimatise properly. I've had fish from Trimar too - top notch and thriving too And I have to add: fish from Wholesale Trops too (my local hang-out) and they too are doing very well.

yes that's the place....not sure what your point is about parking though.

 

[Bloo]

I believe there's parking at the back of the shop - or so they've told me. Ring them and check.
