aussie newbie...quick question...

[spoofsjsc]

aussie lungs. i wish i had one. i might not put it in my bichir tank though. if ever i own one in the future, it's gonna have a big tank all to himself.

btw, santoury is the guy in the lungfish forum with the biggest lungfish collection in the world.

just for the record...i paid $350au for each endi and that was cheap here...haha
sheeesh.... expensive hobby over here...

No kidding! My ornate cost me nearly that much here in NZ!!
At least you can get endi's over there...

Why don't u aussie's just buy internationally.....seems it would be a hell of a lot cheaper....i mean i gaurantee you can have an endli bought and shipped for under $150.......let alone $350.

The only way I'll be buying an endi from overseas is if I can convince the customs officers it's a delhezi. The only bichirs on the 'Allowed List' are ornate, senegal, delhezi and palmas.

 

[X24]

oh really? wonder why that is.

 

[David R]

Basicly instead of having a list of what isn't allowed, we have a list of what is allowed to be imported, and if its not on that list then too bad. It doesnt matter than nothing would survive over winter here, we're still not allowed rays, piranha, shovelnose catfish etc.

So, how similar do young del' s/endi's look?
