I was in at Redwood Aquatics today, I just though i'd let people know that they have a Harlequin Tuskfish for sale. It's one of those fish you don't see very often, I think because they are generally collected from Australian reefs.

Sorry Pies, no Powder Bules down here yet.

What is the price on the Tuskfish?

They sure are great looking fish. I know they eat shrimps (have seen the eat shrimps in the wild) but not sure how they go with corals? If I ever do a 'aggressive' tank that would be a must have fish, sharing with a lionfish, trigger and grouper or similar. AWESOME!

Thanks for keeping you eyes out for the Powder Blue, Christchurch usually have them (Petworld). BTW someone told me that a car was driven though Petworlds shop, is this true?

$250. Yes Petworld did have a car crash into the corner of their shop, not sure what the damage was inside, but it was the same wall which housed all their tanks. So more than likely a lot of tanks would have been broken. Petworld have not imported anything since the passing of the owner Eddy a few months ago. Apparently the family is keen to keep the importing going in the future.

Just thinking about cool fish...

What happened to those Moorish Idols that Reefs imported.

Reefs...Update please

Our next reef Club meeting will hopefully be a a guys house who has a Lionfish. When I was reefing in the UK I had a dwalf lionfish in my tank.

It would be great to get them on the approved list

Lionfish sure are beautiful. I have seen hundreds whilst diving in various locations.

Lionfish is my number 1 MUST HAVE fish. However as everyone knows they are not on the allowed list and did appear on the 'old' banned list. They do NOT appear on the noxious/pest lists.

So should be no problem owning one, just finding one is the trick.

MAF rules surrounding marine fish and inverts are stupid or idiotic even.

I would love to see some pics of the lionfish, their age and other relivent info.

ALSO if anyone had lionfish for sale or gift please don't hesitate to contact me, I have I home for it and promise to keep my mouth shut!

Now back to the tuskfish...
