About Gills and Thrills
Welcome to Gills and Thrills - Bringing the beauty of the underwater world into your home - one fin at a time.
Who We Are
Founded by aquatic enthusiasts, Gills and Thrills is much more than just a fish store. We’re a community of fish lovers committed to providing healthy, happy aquatic friends and all the essentials to bring your dream underwater world to life. From egg to fully grown fish, we are invested in every step of the way.
Livestock is dispatched on express or overnight courier, Monday to Wednesday only, so nothing spends a weekend in transit - and every live order is backed by our Live Arrival Guarantee: if something arrives dead, tell us within 2 hours with photos and we'll sort a credit, refund, or reshipment. We'd also recommend quarantining new arrivals before adding them to an established tank - see our shipping and care notes for the full details.
What We Offer
- A wide range of tropical freshwater fish and invertebrates
- High-quality fish food, filters, heaters, and aquarium accessories
- Expert guidance and care tips for every level of fish keeper
- Passionate staff ready to help you build your dream aquarium
