burgoid Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 hi i was wondring if anyone has ordered or even heard of these guys LINK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducksta Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Had a quick squizz at front page - doesn't look like a local stock list to me? Never heard of them from any OS fish-nerds either. If they are not in Australia, then you can kiss the idea good-bye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlakeyBoyR Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Looking at the site I really doubt they're Australian. Sorry mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poxboy Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Pretty sure they're local. Have a look at the link down the bottom of this page........... Link Bretto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 I think it is a Aussie site. It recommends age or aquariums for any other fish related stuff HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Wombat Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 I doubt they are local - plus they seem to be into some pretty freaky looking fish like blood parrots, etc. Not my cup of tea. Albino BN was nice though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emp1re Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 they are based in QLD and they are a sponsor of the the www.qldcichlid.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Wombat Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Are they FW tiger puffers in their gallery? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducksta Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Really? QLD Cichlid forum sponsored by an online shop who openly advertise blood parrots? Odd. Not everybody can afford morals though. Right Wayne So since they specialise in 'rare but legal' are all the 'Assorted Asian Arowana' microchipped and come with all legal paperwork? I think I can feel some impulse buying coming on. Not a fan of the number of photo's of fish on hands/box lids etc though : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emp1re Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 i don't think anything that are RARE are LEGAL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViS Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 I wouldn't buy anything from a site that openly advertises blood parrots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlakeyBoyR Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 My apologies, I should've taken a closer look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevkoi Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Willy, the fish in the gallery are not FW tiger puffers. Theys are Tetraodon fluviatilis, Green spotted puffer. They are brackish water puffers.... In any case there's one available on display at a Sydney fish shop. Nice interesting assortment of fish. I think it caters for a very broad market.

D6C1 Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 i had a look at their gallery. Why would anyone do that to fish? take them out of water to snap happy pics of them. I dont like that behaviour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burgoid Posted May 4, 2005 Author Share Posted May 4, 2005 at first it htought they where a bit dodgy but i sent him an email and he said he is based on the south side of brisbane and that the red -fined cactus plecos are only $450 i am mainly interested in the mangrove roots though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Morelia Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Look on page 3 of the Gallery.... Parrots with chunks out of their backs, and ones with their tails off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod54 Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Who buys these fish???? Imagine if someone started selling dogs with no back legs!!! Some real sick puppies out there....but they wouldn't breed them if they couldn't sell them? I suppose this is just like fancy goldfish....they are really deformed carp! Right up there with ballon mollies/rams and artificially coloured fish in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
