CatBrat Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 I paid less than that for mine. I ordered them though my LFS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faran Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Which distributor/fishery are they available from? I checked the Highway fisheries and Brooklands price lists today and couldn't find them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamosfish Posted March 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Thank you so much guys/girls That is exactly what i was looking for! Can't wait to go back now.... I paid $700 for my L14 5-6cm :-? jamos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faran Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 ouch. L14s are about $100 in shops and a bit cheaper on TradeMe. So what plecs do you currently own and which ones are you after when you get back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamosfish Posted March 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 i have so far, L14, L191, 2xL190, L91, L260, Albino sailfin, L104, L52, L007(golden variety), L90, L10a, Longfin bn (albino & normal) plus a few other bn which i breed. I would be looking to replace them all at least. I am not going to like having to part with my L14 as she was the first plec i got. she is now about 25cm. jamosfish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillieOrCory Posted March 30, 2006 Report Share Posted March 30, 2006 Hey Jamos, Don't go!!! I was hoping to touch base and get some plecs offspring off you Bad luck for Oz, good luck for NZ Serkan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamosfish Posted March 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2006 The move is still up in the air atm.... What offspring were you after? jamos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharn Posted March 30, 2006 Report Share Posted March 30, 2006 im not much into my cats but i dont think we have long fin BN over here, ive kept my eye out at pet stores cause ive seen pics of them and i like them. havent seen any albino BN, let alone albino long fins either, but like i said, im not too into cats. i wonder if you can bring your cats over that were allowed over here? have to be put in quarentine for a bit though and it could get costly?
