that would be kool, but i wouldn't want really just anyone going out and doing that because then idiots will go out and take every fish they find and in a week the amazon will be empty...

wow

i hope those idiots don't do that!
 
id love to go to the amazon. i would only take home a pbass of any kind i could find. the only thing about going to the amazon is that its a pain to get all the injections to protect u from foreign diseases. ur required to take them when going to the amazon, im almost 100% positive. other than that itd be great
 
lol u know what's funny? ppl in other countries who have their own list of cool fish might look at American fish as rare aquarium fish.
Our Sunnies are like cichlids. Bass are like Peacocks. Bullheads/Madtoms like Plecos. Pike are like Tigerfish/Payaras. Rosy Reds and Dace, etc are like Tetras. Our Killifish are like their Killifish...

Thats true funny you say that because when I lived in NY long Island the fish club I used to belong to had a collector who sold darters to Europe,Asia,etc.

The demand for North American darters is huge over seas . I think he bred them in captivity not sure as his list was limited .

That's what I'd look for!
 
Really if you decide to go to the Amazon, go to your Doctor and ask for the list of shot's that you will need and price your ticket. Then you will find that it is cheaper to shop around and find what you are looking for. But, if you go, bring back a whole lot of pictures and post them up. Please. Thanks.
