Loopy Posted August 15, 2005 Report Share Posted August 15, 2005 Apart from fish and snails of various sorts, are there any other critters that are available in NZ that can be put in tropical freshwater tanks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heather Posted August 16, 2005 Report Share Posted August 16, 2005 Mussels maybe? They might have to come from warm water to start with. I dont know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshie Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Go hunting in clean creeks and lakes, there's HEAPS out there. We've got coldwater mussels, shrimps, crayfish, several snails of shapes and sizes, plants, leeches. bugs and insect lavae. Just remember unlike tropical fish from different environments these are all from the same food chain and once all confined in a tank, many won't last more than a day or two. And the other thing is the bugs and lavae can change into unwanted types. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
