Zebra plecs are available from hollywood fish farm at $600 no jokes i just been there and they had three so i asked the guy how much and he said those ones wernt for sale but he could get them for $600 from the wholesaler does anyone wanna buy any i dont have the money but maybe someone does

cheers kyle

$600 is a bit over the top, $200-$400 i can understand, how much mark up will these guys be making on this fish!

Shae

Wow, cool. $600 isn't too bad bad for Zebra's. They sell for around $100-$150ish in America and $1000+ in Aussi, so it's not too bad a price for NZ.

How big are they Kyle? Sexable?

I coukld see one male jake and i didnt see the other two and hollywood are going to try and breed them there about 8-10cm

cheers

wow, wish i had a spare $600 lying around! so very tempting, wonder what i can sell :lol:

plecs

Would anyone like to buy a good woman, awesome cook, cleans well, only $600 :lol:

Which Hollywoods? I got some spare cash

the mt roskill one but if you want some ask them to order it for you from the wholesaler as they didnt think anyone would buy some i think so thats why they ordered 3 to breed with but the guy said he could get them

hmmmm WANT WANT WANT! anyone want to buy a R/C helicopter lol

Just been down there, they are cool but $600 is to much(unless you are the seller of course LOL)

They would be about 8cm no more. Thinking they must be the most expensive fish in NZ, can anyone think of a dearer fish?

Arowana when large?

The gold arowana, when small sells between $4000-$5000ea very few come in evry year.

Shae

Cant say i've seen any gold arowanas for sale in NZ, where have you seen them shae?

Ask kim, she knows, it was on TV the a while back, "age of aquariums"

Shae

I saw the program and remember them mentioning about them but didn't realise they were talking about NZ, they are a lucky fish for the some of the asian countries if i remember right.

Gold Arowanas are the cheap ones.

the Red ones that Jansens had went for $7500

I think they still have one in Jansens, Glenfield

At $7500 i'm not surprised they still have one LOL

Red and gold dragons have been available through Jansens.

They had only about 10-12 brought into the country and i believe there might only be a couple, if that left in the company.

They were going for more than 4x what Zebra Plecos go for, asthey got bigger though the prices were drastically reduced.

If anyone is interested in availability pm me and i will find out more for you.

Wonder how much a zebra would cost?

?? $600 from Hollywood Fish Farm in Auckland for zebra plecs, ryan. Good luck finding any for those prices down here though!

Hi guys l am from Australia, l was wondering what price you guys pay for L046 here in NZ.

Can you import to NZ these fish from Australia? if so we have acouple of large adults to sell if you take both they are $800 each they are 8cm 2 1/2 years old the freight would be at your costs, any takers?

Went into Hollywood yesterday, and was talking to one of the staff. It seems they wish to charge more. $700 was the new figure, I dont believe that even if someones was brave to pay $2,100 for the three that they would let them go!

But they dont seem to have had any luck breeding as of yet either.

But nethier would I with all those people looking in. haha.

RJ

I'm not surprised either, the way their tank is setup is more suited to the public being able to see them than breeding them, a lot more privacy and much better caving structures would be needed as their current ones are way to open.

Awesome looking fish though and i always have to make sure there are still 3 there every weekend LOL

Hey guy's any of you ask if you could take a pic of the zebra pleco's - - add them to the maf file?

A pic might be possible if they will co-operate, they are usually hiding under some schist rocks so not sure how well they would come out but it's definetly worth a crack :lol:
