WHERE???

[animllvr]

Where does everyone get their livestock from?

Is it all collected 'wild' or are there captive breeders?

I am not medically capable of collecting wild so have to rely on other sources - only I cant find any, &c:ry

Any ideas REALLY appreciated

Thanks

Most of us collect from the wild.

I have seen banded kokopu, inanga and redfin bullies for sale in world of water.

If you put your location in your profile someone might be willing to give you a have and collect something for you.

What sort of tank doe you have/looking at and what sort of live stock were you wanting?

Im wanting to setup my marine tanks again, but also interested in setting up a small freshwater tank (probably more inverts rather than fish in it).

have various marine tanks but do have 2 nice tall tanks that I had specially made when I was keeping pot-bellies a few years ago. 210 & 276 litres.

Ideally would like to get back into the seahorses again (hopefully a range of colours like I used to have), marine & freshwater shrimps, smaller growing kelps, be also great to get some of the nice NZ corals and fans aswell (the fans make great 'hitching posts'), maybe a few of the electric scallops etc but, ideally, would like to get back into the seahorses again and start breeding them again

Mark (LivingArt) would be the best bet for native marine info, I'm sure that he'll show up at some time...
