do we have a fish house in NZ? would be cool to have a look... they should build like a real cool fish place with massive beautiful tanks atht are actually maintained properly not like kelly tartons (spelling).. i realy dont like that place.. the tanks always look dirty and the fish are dull .... and the tank layouts obviously have been put in without thinking..

Go see Living Art

There are fishrooms/houses all over nz. Most are private

Join a fish club

There tend to be a few members in each club that have some form of fish house / room

Most clubs also do tank crawls - it gives you a chance to see what everyone else is doing with their tanks, and give you a few ideas for your own

The Auckland club meets at Greenbay, or else there is the North Shore club, they meet at Sunnynook.
