kragura Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 Ok the most simple question ever but... where can I get the stuff (I all ready know about rotorua pet supplies however they do not stock any clean up crew or other helpful inverts and seem to be very overpriced ie 1 Ocellaris Clownfish from live aquaria 21 nzd from rotorua pet supplies 60 nzd) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottie841 Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 A couple things... 1) Where are you? Do you live in Rotorua? 2) We are in NZ and things do cost more here than they do in other countries. If you are going to compare prices compare prices within the same country to see if they are overpriced or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livingart Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 seem to be very overpriced ie 1 Ocellaris Clownfish from live aquaria 21 nzd from rotorua pet supplies 60 nzd) hi kragura welcome to the forums remember when buying livestock in nz, there is freight, quarantine charges, MAF charges and markup exchange rate and markups on that 21 dollar fish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smash Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 There are a number of places where you can get your stock from. Rotorua is one of the beter priced suppliers. I have a fully stocked reef tank and live in wanga's. 90% of my tank has been sent to me, the rest I brought from up north. If you want details or options give me a pm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reef Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 other helpful inverts and seem to be very overpriced ie 1 Ocellaris Clownfish from live aquaria 21 nzd from rotorua pet supplies 60 nzd) Things costs far more in nz due to high airfreight and MAF costs. Prices vary, however good quality stock will cost more, For the best quality stock try try stores in these locations http://www.fnzas.org.nz/fishroom/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=48029 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
