The sun is now coming out and the fish are emerging from their winter residence! If the temperatures remain mild, we will start selling fish again at the beginning of March.

In the wild, Tench are found in still or slow flowing water, which have a rich plant life. They naturally have a dark olive-green skin and it is only relatively recently that the stunning Golden colour has become readily available.

Tench will need to be moved to a pond once it out grows a home aquarium as Tench will grow to over 35cm. Tench are also bottom dwelling fish and will be rarely seen feeding from the surface.
