Calling all AUSSIES!

[_fish_a_holic_]

Hi, I'd like to meet some fellow Aussie fish enhusiasts to share advice, information about LFS and online suppliers etc. Anyone interested?

(Sorry if this post is inappropriate, I'm still learning...)

Cheers,
Irene

HI!!!

AUSSIES!!! wow. hmm..im not in oz rite now, but i have lived there for around 9 years, im now here in Poznan studying university! I lived in Lidcombe, sydney. Though i am a taiwanese i call australia home, cos i spent the later 9 years of my life in oz.

hmm........ANYWAYS.... i dont think i would be of much help cos my home is in syd, but, if u do go there, check out AUBURN AQUARIUMS. thats my fav fish shop!

ps me home is very close to the olympic stadium. its in viewing distance. i can see the stadium from every window on the same one side of the house!! that had nothing to do with anything, but i am jus proud of it. haha....hmmm...and no i am not weird.

Kewl! I mainly go to Aquarium City (being across the road from bf's place, it's hard NOT to go there! ), Perth Aquarium & Display Centre, Pet Magic Cannington, just found out about Pisces Aquariums they're gonna be my source for monos and scats... I was told about a great place called Bird and Fish Place in Welshpool (or Wanneroo? I forget) but I can't find them in the phone book

Hey you Eastern Staters shouldn't be complainin you got heaps of huge stores in Adelaide and Melbourne and I bet Sydney too! I'm so jealous sometimes think it would make a good trip over just to go shopping

Say, just what ARE the procedures for shipping fish from O/S? I would imagine there would be AQIS sticking their thumb in there somewhere, how long would they have to be quarantined for? I've also heard about "trans-shippers", peeps in Oz who get a bunch of fish sent to them from O/S then post them along...

What would be postage within Oz anyway?

Or too much trouble and stress for the fishies? After all, they do it all the time (ship interstate) in the US...

Aussie or not, let's us all have a !

my filter just broke and so i just went to Morley, they tried for like 20 mins to find the peice for me and then said they would order it in and then gave me a filter to use in the mean while and the peicemissing is only worth $5!

i strongly recomend these guys to anyone living in perth
