If you live near or are planning on visiting New Hampshire any time in the next couple of months, make sure to stop in to Aquatic Creations in Amherst. The family-owned shop carries, in their words, “quality aquarium products and equipment. From frozen foods to filters, rare and unusual salt and freshwater live stock, as well as hard to find reef specialty items, we have everything you need and more at great prices!”

But the biggest draw right now? They have just announced their 5th annual Aquatic Creations Big Raffle.

Past years’ prizes have included a Radion light fixture, a rimless 57-gallon aquarium and stand combo, an ATI T5 dimmable sunpower light fixture with selection of tubes, and a trip to Florida to go on a collection trip with Diver Tom.

This year, the raffle prize is awesome: a trip to the Long Island Aquarium, in Riverhead, New York. The prize includes admission for two to the world-renowned facility, a guided behind-the-scenes tour, a shark dive with gopro video, and a one-night stay at the beautiful Hyatt Place hotel, located just steps away from the aquarium.

Starting tomorrow, January 26, customers will receive 1 raffle ticket for every $50.00 they spend in the store. The raffle runs until 5:00 pm on April 9th, and the winner will be drawn at 12:00 pm on April 10th.

Good luck everyone!
