i have been keeping fishes long time ago meybe 6 years i had keep piranha oscar American cichild and african to but i never had a big fish (50cm) and more
cuz they
are not available here in jordan like red tail cat fish or beackock bass

so my Question here is how can i import a big fish from USA or UK ??
and how it can be done ??
and did it have Customs taxes ??!
and will the Ministry of Environment allowed me to do that with one fish ??

thanks, and sorry for my bad english :)
 
I'm pretty sure that you would need to figure out what agency would regulate it in your country and then find out the laws from them. As for importing, I'm pretty sure there are many people would be able to ship you the fish that you desire. Main thing is, you need to figure out the importation laws of your country.

thanks make for responding ...
but woudn't they reject import one fish ??
i mean they always look for a big shipment
 
Do you have any pics of your fish. You gotta show what you're working with.

Are there any large native fish in Jordan?

In Jordan you have at least 2 species of cichlids that are impossible to get here in the US, Tristramella sacra and simonis. I would imagine they would both fetch very high prices here, because they are so rare.
 
i don't want to export fishes .. i want to import them !! here in jordan we done have beackock bass and i want one how i can get it from USA

You need to check your local laws and regulations.

Your best bet is to google the import laws in Jordan
It would be difficult for us to search for you as the government sites will be in arabic

If you can't find anything try your local fish stores and try to get there suppliers to help
If there is no law against importing them it won't be hard to find someone to send you one
