I have a fish store that’s a 10 minute bike ride away, I think it opened up relatively recently but I’m not sure. Been there once before and I gotta say this guy has some pretty cool stuff. Has both salt and fresh water equipment, a stingray and a plant section. I’ll go there soon to get pictures but here is the website if you want to check it out.

Here’s my LFS! It’s called Vienna Aquarium. It’s run by the owner and his son, they started it because the owner’s wife died from cancer, she loved fish so they made the shop for her.
They are very knowledgeable and love their fish.

That’s sad but also really cool that they did that in her memory.

Thats huge and very clean LFS , I bet its all air conditioned rooms.

Hard to find fully airconditioned LFS here in my area . The most one small room where they store the plants or planted tanks.

This is my nearest, only 20 minutes away;
Cumbria Aquapets.
They've been in the business for decades and know fish. Unfortunately, they cater for the local population, whose interests are somewhat limited.
Close by is a Pets at Home, which is okay...especially liking their range of pricey Tropica plants and most of the fish staff I've taken the time to chat with do actually know what they're talking about! Any problems with fish care appear to come from on high.

A bigger and better shop is the Carlisle Maidenhead Aquatics store, an hour away. As with many, they've also got a Facebook page and maintain (usually) an active Livestock List, which is good for prior research and dreaming.

I predominantly came here for live feeder fish, the fish here is cheap but I don't feel good buying the aquarium fish just by looking at these very small plastic bag and in such a cramp situation.

 

[Dajuyu]

And yeah the place is directly under the sun.

 

[Dajuyu]

Even a wide variety of Saltwater fish.
