Welcome to the new Coventry Aquatics Online website. Within our catalogue is listed just about everything you could ever need for your Aquarium, Pond, Water Garden or Reptile.

Please read our Conditions of Use & Sale before purchase. Information about our services, delivery charges, your rights to cancellation and much other information is available there and does form the basis of any contract with us

The Catalogue is split into various sections and many sub-sections: this was necessary to try to overcome long page lengths due to the huge number of stock items. The range covers equipment and spares for Tropical, Marine and Coldwater Aquariums, Ponds, Fountains, Reptiles, and many Books on these subjects. At present there are very few items listed as we build our new site but, it is our intention to have in excess of 4000 individual product lines by the end of 2008 making us the largest e-commerce web-site of its kind in the UK. Please be assured that items will be added to our site everyday.

You can either browse the catalogue sections, or find products using the Search system. The Search facility is now much improved and you may need to be more specific about the items you are searching for to reduce the list of results each time.

Select goods you wish to purchase and "Add" to basket. At this point you will have the opportunity to select the Quantity of those goods you wish to purchase. Or to change your mind and return to the catalogue page. Once you have selected "Add to basket " the item will be added to your current Shopping Basket which is always visible at the right hand side of the screen. If the item is currently Out of Stock, you will have the opportunity to continue with the order or to go back to the catalogue page. In some cases you may be offered alternatives if your selection is not available.

How Do I Change Items in my Shopping Basket ? :

If at any time you wish to change the quantity or items in the Shopping Basket, choose "Amend" from the Shopping Basket menu. Click on the individual item if you wish to alter the quantity of that item. If you wish to delete that item from your basket, set quantity to zero if there are other items in the basket, or choose "Clear" at any time to totally empty your Shopping Basket.

Yes : the prices shown in the catalogue are inclusive of VAT. If you live in an area that does not have to pay VAT : this will be removed during the Checkout process based on your post-code and/or country selection

All orders placed with an invoice address in the UK or member countries of the EU are subject to VAT . If your invoice address is outside of the EU or in the Channel Islands, VAT will be deducted during the Checkout procedure. Goods ordered from an EU address for delivery to a destination outside of the EU are still subject to VAT . Goods ordered from outside the EU for delivery to destinations outside the EU are not subject to VAT, but goods ordered from outside the EU for delivery within the EU are subject to VAT.

Yes : due to increasing costs we have had to introduce extra charges on all orders to all destinations. When ever the term "carriage charge" or "postage" appears : this refers to a charge for handling, packaging, and carriage / delivery. We do not attempt to make a profit out of carriage / delivery charges as some sellers do.

Carriage charges are displayed during ordering prior to entering payment details and are based on the destination, country, post code, quantity of items, weight of items and speed of delivery. You can always check the carriage charge that would apply to your order prior to having to pay or confirm the order.

Order completion triggers the system to send you an Order Confirmation email. Further emails are sent to confirm any alterations and again on despatch. The Despatch email contains date, method of shipping and any Tracking Numbers if applicable

Why Didn't I Get Any Email? :

You probably entered it incorrectly. The system uses the email address you entered during the ordering process, and if it was not entered absolutely correctly, then you will not receive these emails. Our system is pretty sophisticated, but not that clever!

Can I Order Over The Phone? :

Yes, we can take your order over the phone but there is an Administrative Charge of 2% per order for each order you place in this manner. This charge is in addition to any carriage charges which may apply to your order.

You can fax us on 02476 506461 at any time at all : please include full details of your query in this fax. Your fax will be answered as qucikly as possible.
