Leichardti-Native to the Fitzroy River system however stocking has seen the Southern Saratoga introduced to the Brisbane River, Burnett River, Dawson River, Noosa River, Borumba Dam, Cressbrook Dam, Hinze Dam, Lake Somerset and Wivenhoe Dam.

Dont expect to catch one and throw it in a tank tho'. All you'll get is a stressed fish that goes through the lids everytime you walk near it. Talk to your LFS about getting one in if you want one.
