alanmin4304 Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 It is an example of why it is not easy to get fish in NZ. It shows that there are big markets out there and they are not here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanjury Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 Thanks for sharing the pics it looks like a good setup I think it is very hard to figure out what would make things better for us here in NZ regarding fish, I also wonder if we would ever be happy with what we have and what we can get, a bit like money can we ever have enough? I don't think price is the issue with people keeping fish, even if discus were 50C each there would still be a large number of people who don't want to get fish poo water on their hands/don't have the time to look after them/don't want their carpets wet etc etc.. It is a very limited and specialised market.. All I can say is if you have big plans and theories that you believe in that much write up a business plan and do it, I would love to see you be right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquatopia Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 LOL Ryan - whilst I would love to, I neither have the resources, time or inclination to go that far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diver21 Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 hey DAuckland, what an awsome place to visit, did you get a good look into how the tanks where run? like where they all connected together with a large sump or did each tank have its own filtration setup?

reef Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Is anyone going to bring in some real discus or just the steroid hybrid discus. Some Natural brown discus would be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
