This brings to mind a thought. I agree that this is the best
source for quality fish. Can I order live fish fish from
Australia from individual hobbyists? What are the realities
of such an idea? Not being there I imagine things to be
quite different than they really are.
Over here the fish and egg trading net is small but fairly
effective. I assume there is some roadblock or else I'd be
trading with more people than just Ron Bowman!
Also relying on someone to visit Australia every so often is
just too haphazard. How about a bulletin board thingy
whereby people who are travelling back and forth or know
others who are and would help, could let the rest of us know
While this may not be the same as hunting down Gertrudae in
some little Croc infested backwater at Three o'clock in the
morning, I'm sure many of you are beginning to see that my
level of OBSESSION is the Same!;-)
