[There was a type of cichilids in Asian (Singapore) countries who use them for feet "massages"]

I have heard there are mollies or platties (one of the two) in a hot lake near Taupo. What about trout? I assume not?

Depends on the region, in the upper north island rudd and perch? are around but are not considered pest fish, but are considered pest fish in other regions.

I think that there are sailfin mollies at little waihi on taupo, swardtails and guppies in some rotorua/reporoa thermal streams, I also believe that there have/still are others

Oh and trout/gambusia
