A "sad loss to the city" as a much-loved family business will be closing soon.
Wavertree Nook Road Aquarium has been operated by the same family since originally opening as a chandelier shop in 1965. A few decades later, founder and patriarch Hugh Stamper, now 89, decided to turn his passion for fish and aquatics into a business, and the much-loved aquarium centre was born.
Despite almost 60 years of trading, and battling through many hardships along the way, the family made a "hard decision" to close for good. Taking to social media to confirm the news, they said the store will close "in the very near future" as they thanks customers for their loyalty.
