More New Corydoras in Store Now

Call in store to see our new collection of Corydoras, including some very unusual species.

At The Green Machine we are Nature Aquarium Specialists, so we only stock fish that are suited to the Nature Aquarium. Corydoras are ideal fish for the planted tank and because they are bottom feeders they add a welcome element of interest to the lower level of the Nature Aquarium (as illustrated by James Findley's new aquascape 'Natures Chaos'). We also specialise in small shoaling fish.

This Nature Aquarium by famous aquascaper James Findley is growing in beautifully - it is definitely one of the most stunning works we have ever had on display. Call in store to see it, or watch this space for more coverage.

Of course, nothing comes close to seeing it for yourself, but because we know that not everyone can travel to see us regularly, we will be releasing more images of this beautiful Nature Aquarium as it progresses.
