SALE on in MaxiZoo, Leopardstown...

Hi All

I Work in MaxiZoo, Finglas but I was in the Leopardstown Branch today, the Grand Opening was yesterday and to celebrate there is a Sale on, the Sale Runs until Sunday (25th)
there are a load of good deals to be had but the one that stood out the most to Me is the Elite 60 for €49.99
it comes with a T8, a filter, a heater, thermometer, etc. etc., a great deal as I'm sure You'll agree, the last time We had them at that price in Finglas, they flew out the door...
so just said I'd give You all a heads up

EDIT: ...would make a nice little Crimbo Prezzie


cheers

Have to say the store looks great the fish house is very impressive! The family fun day on sunday is going to be great day out for the whole family with free face painting and daves jungle!So why not pop in and enjoy the fun.

Shop look great went up sunday kids had a great time getting their faces painted and i had a great time meeting dave and i got to hold a 12ft. boa constricter which was mad cause before i hated snakes but now i love them their so cool (strong thing, nearly choked me, ha) even got to hold a 3ft. crock, at this stage i thought i was Tarzan, go on the me, ha, ah yeh fun times thanks for the heads up des great shop indeed

Thanks for letting us know Des. Its almost right next door to me so looking forward to going down. I wasn't sure if they had fish in it, so delighted to hear they do! Is it right beside Woodies guys? i.e. can you not miss it, or will I have to go searching? Just haven't been down that way in a while!

Thanks
Bill

I called in on sunday it really is a nice place and the fish house is nice.
Also its nice to have one close for a change.
@Bill its like two up from woodies but if you drive into woodies you cant miss it
Actually thinking about it there use to be a petstop there about 10 years ago

Looks like you've missed the opening sale Bill, it ended on Sunday unfortunately.

Strange these stores opening in a recession - perhaps they know something the rest of us don't?

Hi Des, bit O/Twhat are the plants in your image on your profile? Nice tank by the way and do you have any in your shop in finglas?

cheers Mike

that Tank is My Pride & Joy, so it is...
collected some cool pieces of Moor Wood over the Years, I'm always on the look out for nice pieces
great Wood to work with, makes great framework for the Plants
all the Plants in that Tank are just nice and easy low maintenance Plants
the Main Plant in the Centre is Bolbitis heudelotii, it's a very easy to keep fast growing Fern
cracking Plant


there are a few lovely plants in the same family...

Bolbitis heteroclita
trilobal fern with an elongated centre leaf, very nice


bolbitis heteroclita difformis
a cool nano Plant, makes a neat little foreground Plant


the long thin stringy looking Plant on the right is Crinum calamistratum
a firm favourite of Mine, this Plant pretty much started My interest in Aquatic Plants
it's a fast growing, cool looking easy to keep Plant that I think always looks the part in any Aquarium


all the other Plants in the Tank are in the Anubias Family
just about the easiest hardiest Plants going...
Anubias barteri, Anubias barteri nana & Anubias bonsai are used in that pic

there are some very nice Anubias Plants available, Anubias hastifolia, Anubias congensis, Anubias coffeefolia...
I've recently added some of the above mentioned Plants, some Cryptocorynes, Microsorum pteropus windelov & various Mosses to the Tank

I must take some more recent Pix of the Tank...

all these Plants and a whole lot more are available in MaxiZoo, Finglas
I'm a bit low on Mother Plants at the moment, there is more Plants dew in on thursday

drop in and have a Yap...

having a Passion for the Hobby is what it's all about !!!

You're on the Ball with that Tank, it is very easy to keep mainly because of the easy nature of the Plants used in it...
actually there is a Red Plant that I am becoming very interested in that seems to be very hardy by comparison to most Red Plants...

Nesaea spec.

cool Plant, Might end up putting a load of this in the 240 with some Cryptocoryne Parva or Lutea...
