Independent aquarium care for Formby
Formby's go-to aquarium cleaning service
We're aquarists first, cleaners second. That means the work we do in Formby is built around keeping your bio-filtration intact, your fish settled, and your tank looking the way it did the day you set it up.
A typical visit in Formby includes a partial water change with conditioned and temperature-matched water, a glass and decor clean, gravel vacuuming, filter media rinse, and a quick fish health check.
Whether you're in a flat with a 60-litre nano or a converted barn outside Formby with a six-foot reef, we'll tailor the visit to the system.

Why Formby customers stay with us
Built around your tank
Every aquarium has its own rhythm. We learn yours — stocking, plants, filtration — and service to it.
Respectful in your home
Floors covered, kit kept tidy, water out cleanly. Formby customers regularly tell us they barely noticed we were there.
Problem-solving, not patching
Algae back within a fortnight? Cloudy water that keeps returning? We look at the cause, not just the symptom.
Continuity you can rely on
Holidays, house moves, new fish, equipment failures — we're a steady point of contact for the life of the tank.
