A West Midlands aquatics supplier is on the verge of opening a new store in Cradley Heath.
Owner Colin Ahmed has been looking for new premises for some time so he can expand his business and eventually sell koi carp.
"We are moving stock over at the moment and carrying out minor repairs, so with luck we're aiming to open the doors to the public in a couple of weeks.
"We are not going to sell koi at the moment as we feel it would be unwise to try to rush into installing holding tanks.
"But we'll be able to inform customers what to expect once we can handle good stocking levels of koi."
The new premises are at Unit 1, Elbow Street, Old Hill, West Midlands B64 6JP.
