HOW TO FIND US
The main entrance to the shop is through double sliding doors. Hand carved marble lions were brought in specially from Taiwan to ward-off evil spirits!
A huge variety of "dry goods" are on display. Equipment for ponds, including filters, pumps, liners and ornaments are displayed in a separate showroom.
Aquaria for sale of all shapes and sizes are on display around the shop.
A small selection of the 180 acrylic display tanks with centralised filtration.
Many varieties of pond fish are kept in large vats. This area is normally fully stocked from the middle of March through to the end of September each year
Waterlife has always specialised in marine invertebrates. You will always find a large selection of anemones, star fish, crabs, shrimps and corals in our display tanks.
Being close to Heathrow airport, and having been in business for 30 years enables Waterlife to import the finest marine fish from most parts of the world.
Four display aquaria showing some of the marine invertebrates.
Between March and September each year the front area is a riot of colour with an impressive array of pond plants. Also to be found here are preformed ponds, waterfalls and stone ornaments.
