kiwiplymouth Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 You can get Chocolate Zebra's L270 Mr Pleco is the man to talk to. I got a group from him, They are great fish and doing really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 There are gold nuggets around pet stores in chch quite a lot. There is one on trademe in chch at the moment. I just purchased a snowball from Organisms in chch. I believe there is a Royal pleco in store there at the moment. I've also seen blue phantoms and a sunshine in there too over the past few months.

How many did you end up getting? I've got 2 and need to take some pics and figure out their sexes, maybe we should do a breeding trade.

Adrienne Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 My understanding is that all of the ones you have listed are in NZ. Mr Pleco has quite a few of them plus others. I have a king tiger, a tiger and a chocolate zebra all from him. There is a list on here in the catfish section with some of the forum members letting us know what they do have. The last zebra plec I saw being sold went for about $700 from memory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dougstark Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Try this site. A pet shop in Rotorua. http://www.wonderworldpetcentre.co.nz/p ... 10&id=1045 They often have a great range tho not the cheapest. They may ship. You would have to check with them.
