Colin84 Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 i'm planning to import 100 discus fish from malaysia any quarantine places in auckland? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F15hguy Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 this thread is going to turn into some fun...... do you know what the quarantine requirements in NZ are??? if you want to spend the $$$ including rent of holding tanks then go for it, your end product will probably be so expensive you will never sell them.

Hello Colin84, Very interesting plans you got there, you would be the kind of person I would like to become friend with, some1 who willing to step in the deep water... :cr2: All the best! You best to try and knocking on this guy doors.. http://www.biosecurity.govt.nz/files/en ... l-fish.xls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David R Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 some assumptions there you know what they say about assumption... I'm sure with that kind of money there would be a few places willing to help you out, but not many of them frequent the forum, but I'd suggest doing some searching online or in the phonebook and contacting them directly, might make them take it a little more seriously. For curiosity sake, are you after wild types or the flashy coloured ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F15hguy Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 you know what they say about assumption what???, that it makes an ass out of u and mption??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hovmoller Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 For curiosity sake, are you after wild types or the flashy coloured ones? Yeah I am curious about this too.. And if they are wild looking ones you could sell 5 to me if you want... but we are not really allowed to plan these sort of things on this forum so email me if you want to talk about this.

JaSa Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 In this world, money can buy everything - even a tank in a NZ quarantine facility. I wish I could come up with that amount. What a waste to spend it on discus ... :digH: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David R Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 +1 to what Hovmoller said about the wild types, not that I'm trying to organise a group buy or anything, cos that isn't allowed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
