Good on you Cyrus and good luck too! Unfortunately I have become somewhat cynical about how these decisions have been made over the years.

I look forward to hearing from you .

Subject: possibility to import

10 species are reviewed by a panel of experts, after the period of
reviewing; those species that succeed are made legal to import into
Australia. When reviewing of the 10 speices is complete 10 other species
are choosen to be reviewed.

I don't know how many people on this list knows about this, but I'll be
researching this and obtaining documentation from WA ANGFA's next guest
speaker ( someone from the Fisheries Dept of WA involved in aquarium
imports) on the 27th of May. And when I get everything right and
"official" I'll send it through e-mail to whom ever wants it.

Obviously this means a lot for ANGFA and I hope what I'll find indictates
that ANGFA may in the very near future play some sort of part in choosing
what species to include in the review.
