Thanks again for the replies, I was also wondering what the rough prices for marine fish are, for example what would a chromis or a clownfish or a blue tang cost?

Thanks so much for the warm welcome! What a great site! By the sounds of that ($) I think I will ship my existing tank over and take the risk of it breaking. Thanks for the link to that marine shop catfish_dude. I have another question. Does NZ operate on 240 Volts same as aust? I am buying a protine skimmer shipped from the US and I am buying a voltage adaptor assuming that NZ is 240 like here. (US is 110 or 115 or something like that) So I just wanted to make sure I get the right adaptor. Thanks again, Ben.

Hi, Im moving from Australia to the South Island because of work and will be living in either Christchurch or Dunedin areas. Not sure yet. Anyway, I have been running a 4 foot marine tank and I want to set it up over there. I am wondering about transporting the tank across and how much a 48x14x20 inch aquarium costs in NZ. I am also wondering if there are many marine aquarium stores in Christchurch/Dunedin and if they have websites that I can check out. I am really keen to continue this great hobby and would greatly appreciate any reply.
