However, it is well worth the visit if you have a passion for pet fish, as this is one of the best aquariums in Liverpool.

Smithdown Aquarium is the typical fish owners' shop where you can purchase tropical fish and food,…read moreas well as fish tank equipment; these are all really standard prices, neither cheap nor expensive. They do sell a fair variety of small tropical fish which are quite common as for most aquariums. The viewing area is rather tight being in a confined space but the staff are really helpful in providing you advice and tips whether you're a beginner or not. They greet customers when they enter the shop and often have regular customers there too, which is always a good sign. If you're looking to exchange fishes here, you might just be able to strike up a good deal. Smithdown Aquarium is occasionally worth the effort, especially if you have a passion for pet fish.

This would be a tremendously relaxing place to stay if it wasn't for the man on the counter peering…read moresuspiciously at you like you're about to grab one of the more tropical creatures and stuff it into your mouth. With its gently bubbling aerators and dark aquatic atmosphere, you could spend a good few hours in here if it had a bar. Maybe the vendor will take kindly to my suggestions he ditches all the bags of gravel and little castles and starts mixing cocktails. I reckon he'd perk up if I tell him topless saleswomen are legal in Liverpool, but only in tropical fish stores. That's true by the way. Look it up. Anyway, a shop of cool Neptunian depth, the place is great for stocking up on tropical fishies. Ask if you can have them with chips. They'll laugh uproariously as they stick your head into a tank, believe me.

Bark's Pets is a local pet shop located in County Road.

This is also the biggest pet shop in County Road and one which has a decent variety of well looked after pets, accessories and food. The staff are always friendly and willing to help although at times you need to be patient before you get seen to, as it does get busy on occasions. If you are a lover of pets, this is a great place to come for a browse and be able to obtain tips and advice from knowledgeable staff. Personally, I have been to places that sell a wider variety of fish but if you're after reptiles or spiders for instance, then this is your Aladdin's cave!

Only a small fraction of me thinks this shop intends you to use them as pets. A lot of the little blighters will be used as food, door stops and floppy paperweights. Why go to the trouble of looking after them? They're only goldfish. This is actually a very good shop, providing everything for for the experienced fish-tamer or aquatical newcomer. Ornamental water features fill the floorspace, tiny plastic Spitfires pretend to rot in display cases and koi carp and the aforementioned goldfish stare and gulp at you from dark tanks. The only downside is that the constant noise of gurgling water will play Mary Hell with your bladder.

It's not always the cheapest option but you should find most of you pet owner requirements here. My one quibble is that it can be difficult to find a member of staff when you need one. I sometimes buy fish here which you can't just pick up off the shelf and on occasions I've left empty handed because I couldn't find anyone to help. Otherwise it's ok, parking is no problem and it's convieniently located on Conwy Road.
