Godly3vil Posted June 4, 2013 Report Share Posted June 4, 2013 I didn't think it was legal to sell these as they are native? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueether Posted June 4, 2013 Report Share Posted June 4, 2013 I just bought some from 'Pet Mart' in ?Melling - near QueensGate shopping centre. Interesting as I don't think you can harvest them to sell them unless you have a quota under the QMS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M@. Posted June 4, 2013 Report Share Posted June 4, 2013 they must have got one somehow, cause from posts on here, and seeing it myself, they have been selling them for over a year now... nomad fish 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forretressqt Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 Jumping on for any future readers If you're in the Wellington region and desperate, there is a huge amount in Kapiti. To be specific, Otaraua Park, from the King Arthur drive entrance. Park up and walk to the river. All along that side, particularly in the rocky areas you'll find them at dusk.

Gus Posted December 21, 2022 Report Share Posted December 21, 2022 ...and another couple of years another Wellingtonion chases Paratya :) I went to the Silverstream Wier today between 9pm and 11ish pm... Actually there was so much water coming through the river that we couldn't try the actual wier and walked to the left where there's a stream affluent to the river. There were no shrimps there. We went all around the stream and a stationary pool and no shrimp. We found a few white bare, snails, oxygen weed, and some other tiny things. I will go back there when it hasn't rain in a few days to try the wier but before that I'll likely go to Paraparaumu and try the Otararua park suggested above. nomad fish 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
