The shop as a whole is good, and some vets who arent hugely inexperienced in reptiles in the Essex area recommend calling them for advice.

I wasnt overly impressed by the water quality in the Alligator snapper, i know they dont tend to move a lot, but that tank isnt very good for it either. If anyone here works there - that needs looking into.

I can find fault with nothing further i think.

Make a mental note - if you intend to travel by train there is a Rainham in both Essex and Kent. Only a fool will go to Kent (but if you do, please tell us!). The shop is literally a stones throw from the station, which is easily accessible from central london from Fenchurch Street. I think its about 6 minutes to Barking too, and passes through the Holy Land (Dagenham). So the connections to tube etc are very good.

I've never been there, Rainham's a bit of a drive from where I am I tend to get a bit lost when going into essex as everything looks the bloomin same.
Rainham isn't too far to drive from East London. It's just the other side of Dagenham on the A13. It's worth the trip. If you don't fancy driving it then Rainham train station is pretty much right outside the shop.

I like cold blooded, always go there for my live foods and frozen foods. Always end up spending some time having a chat or having a browse at the animals in there too

yea, its on the c2c line - always go there on that line from west ham - works a treat if you can bear walking 50 yards!
