Shop: Duston Aquatics
Location: Northampton Variation of animals: mostly fish, only reps are tort,turts, beardies and leo's Pricing of animals: poor, normal leo's £65 but he has now dropped it to £55 as he cant sell them pricing of equipment:not TOO bad. Knowledge of staff: Awful, heard someone being told that they had only male leo's as breeders keep back the females to stop others breeding...... Customer service: Usualy friendly, sometimes the manager can be a bit grumpy condition of animals: Again Awful, 3 x year old male leos in a small viv with 1 hide under a heat bulb, one has an eye injury and the culprit is still in the same viv, amoung other issues like one leo having such a bad shed it couldnt open its eyes and was wandering round rubbing its face on the side of the viv. Would you return: I used to go all the time, may only return to lecture him about the state of the leo's Would you reccomend: not if you want a healthy rep Rating out of 10: 2/10 the worst example of keeping reps that I have seen. Just s shame that the RSPCA dont give a  about reps.

Location: Leeds (York Road) Variation of animals: Hamsters, Rabbits, Guinea Pigs, Kittens, All kinds of fish, Bearded Dragons, Gecko's of varying species, Tortoises, Snakes, Frogs, Spiders, Scorpions, Chinese Water Dragons and MANY MORE Variation of equipment: Anything and everything you could possibley want - well except reptile carpet, they never seem to have any. Pricing of animals: Fairly priced for great quality animals. E.G Normal Leo 3 months old £39.99, Baby BD's £45... Pricing of equipment: Could be better but again fairly priced for the quality of the equipment. Knowledge of staff: Staff are very knowledgeable about all annimals. They ahve specialist aquatics staff, specialist Reptile staff. Most of the staff actually keep the animals that they ahve in the shop, but if they don't they're clued up about them. Customer service: Extremely friendly, approachable, always willing to help (when i bought my leo one of the reptile chaps spend a good 20 to 30 minutes with me talking over everything and actually looking at the animmals) Condition of animals: All animals look extremely healthy, habitat always sufficient - only thing I don't like is seeing crickets etc running around and not taken out of the Viv's after feeding. Would you return: Yes, i use them all the time. Would you reccomend: Definately, neighbouring Towns / places to Leeds is well worth the travel. Rating out of 10: 9
