Over the years the store has been open, the range of livestock available has expanded to include all types of tropical and coldwater fish, with a great emphasis on quality cichlids, both African and American, and rainbowfish. A number of display tanks have been setup in store to showcase tropical fish, plants, rainbowfish and cichlids. Of particular note is the massive 3500 litre Malawi cichlid display tank - the largest fish tank in any aquarium store in Perth. Dry goods have also expanded to include all the highest quality brands, including Eheim, Sera, Aqua-Medic, Jäger and Schego.

As well as an increase in stock and equipment, the wealth of knowledge housed within the staff of the shop has also grown. With each day the store is open, the staff learn something new. Whether it be details on a new fish species, operation of a new product, ins and outs of new maintenance techniques or new methods of health and disease control, all of this knowledge is pooled, tested and ultimately passed on to the customer in order to make their aquarium keeping experience as simple and enjoyable as possible. Couple this with the high standards of customer service that our staff adhere to, and after one visit you will be convinced that Morley Aquariums is the best - and friendliest - place in Perth for aquarium stock, equipment and advice.
