The humble goldfish gave 'birth' to an international hobby

Swallow Aquatics started business by selling goldfish and from this humble beginning grew into Britain's Number One aquatics company.

Goldfish have for years provided the starting point for most fishkeepers to a hobby which provides interest, entertainment and relaxation for a lifetime. It could be your hobby started at a fair ground taking a fish home as a prize, but however your introduction to this remarkable little fish there is no doubt that it can provide a first class introduction to keeping fish in a tank.

This, of course, will invariably lead to greater strides in the hobby, whether in the form of 'fancy goldfish' in a tank, other coldwater tank fish - or fish in a pond, including the highly popular Japanese Koi.

Come to our branches and see for yourself - and bring your children along. It could be the start of a lifetime's hobby!
