Hey guys, i can get the occaisional banded kokopu, koura and inganga at the local fish store, but i haven't been able to find any bullies especially interested in the redfin. DOes anyone know a store in Auckland/Northshore or a breeder who sells them? Also interested in how much a liscence to keep eels costs? :bounce:

Best way to get some Bullies is to wander down to a local creek after dark with a torch and net. The smaller ones (3-5cm) are best as they seem to adapt to tank life better.

You dont need a license to catch and eat an eel, so I dont thing you need one to bring it home and put it in a tank either. You may be thinking about commercial fishing or farming which probably have all sorts of paperwork and fees. Just check with local rules, like you cant catch them in National Parks (or Western Springs), but pretty much anywhere else is OK
