AQUA AMAZON Holland: Specialized AQUARIUM STORE!

2

My first trip to the Vivarium (In 2018) allowed me to meet people from Belgium and the Netherlands. Among the many aquarium enthusiasts I met Dennis. A Dutch professional full of passion.

Returns in Rosmalen for Vivarium in 2019, it seemed obvious to schedule a report dedicated to his huge work…

First meeting at the Vivarium 2018

Eddy Leyssen President of the Belgian club De Discusvrienden contacted me for the first time to join the jury of the discus show.

A first for me and a real pleasure to discover the discus enthusiasts in this part of Europe. I had moreover done a report about the discus competition in the Vivarium 2018.

A real pleasure and many discoveries…

Among the winners of the competition was Dennis Van Den Heuvel the manager of the aquarium store AQUA AMAZON in the Netherlands.

He presented a pretty wild discus. After the contest, I quickly shared a photo of the discus on my networks. Then, Dennis told me he was the owner of this animal.

Our conversations made me understand that I had discovered a real passionate!

Dennis Van Den Heuvel and Eva his companion manages the aquarium store AQUA AMAZON. This one is about thirty minutes from the place where stands the Vivarium.

Placed in an industrial area, you must thank the GPS to get you to your destination. Hard to imagine finding aquariums.

Once inside, I discovered a beautiful place, well laid out and especially optimized! Every centimeter is cleverly exploited.

Dennis told me about his expand store project. Sending me from time to time photos of his work.

AQUA AMAZON had become too small. And after three years, our Dutch friends decide to migrate to a more spacious place… MUCH more spacious!

Dennis and his companion are hard workers… This year, they have managed their aquarium store, built and designed their new store (Around 10 minutes from the first), organized the installation of their booth 70 square meters at the Vivarium… AND participate to the discus contest!

And this with a bright smile on their face… Personally I say BRAVO.

This year, Dennis didn't won a trophy with his discus. But no doubt you can count on him in the relatively near future.
