We are situated on the outskirts of Bristol with easy access from the M5, M4 and M48 and we have our own large and free car park.
At Southwestmarines you will receive a warm and friendly welcome and we excel at making the hobby easy and accessible for beginners as well as providing the help, advice and stock that more experienced reef keepers are looking for.
Our staff have over 30 years of combined experience in reefkeeping and each staff has their own established and succesful reef. You can come to Southwestmarines safe in the knowledge that we have the practical experience and can offer options and advice to see your aquarium thrive.
We have worked hard over the years to build good and lasting relationships with all the major suppliers and therefore stock a great range of tried and trusted dry goods. We also endeavour to offer a price match guarantee so please feel free to call us with any requirements.
We stock a huge (400+) variety of soft and hard coral from £5 frags to the really rare and usual and we have 3-4 deliveries a week so there is always plenty of choice.
We also have a dedicated invert system for a wide variety of clean up crew - snails, shrimps, crabs, urchins and starfish, plus lots of the more interesting and the unusual critters you would not usually see in other shops.
Southwestmarines also has a 1700 litre dedicated fish system in which we house a variety of reef safe and 'fish only' fish. We are on hand to advise and help with your choice to make your system a stress free and happy environment for all inhabitants.
We stock the very best quality Live rock from various sources and fully cure it ourselves on site so it's ready to go to your aquarium.
We also stock a good range of Ceramic and Eco friendly/artificial live rock and can advise on the benefits of all forms available.
At southwestmarines we specialise in the design, supply and install of custom marine aquarium systems, from the very small to the very large.
We have designed, installed and advised on many award winning aquariums around the country and we also offer a full maintenance service and holiday cover if required.
We look forward to seeing you and please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions.
