wsun013 Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 I would like to know where I could find some creeks which have freshwater shrimps in Auckland, or more precisely, Northshore. Aint looking for koura, but those transparent ones which eats algae. I have a 400L tank and looking for 30ish to throw them in to do the work.

Sophia Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 Meola Creek behind the zoo, drag your net in the weeds and you will get some shrimp. Or I did anyway. Not North Shore though unless you compare to Invercargill though :smln: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wsun013 Posted May 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 but it is a reserve..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 I think that's just what NZers call a park. I don't think it's a reserve like a marine reserve where you cannot fish??? :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fruju Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 Spot just behind Albany senior high school has some, can't remember name of the creek, easy to spot its under a bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanjury Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 Used to get some from a lake over on the shore many years ago but I can't for the life of me remember where it is or what it was called, went down at night with a net and caught bucket loads of them to feed to my africans.. Should really go for a drive and see if I can remember where it was.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oteha Valley has a good few, could give you a hand getting some if you wanted? Lucas on the other side of the village is good to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cichlidman2010 Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 no no no, fruju and cichlidcentral, you're terribly mistaken. Those aren't shrimp... They're the Senior high teachers going for a swim ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
