I didn't add a piece to my message about the hobby in NZ, but from what I
saw of aquarium shops I'd say that keeping aquarium fish looks like it might
be a very low profile hobby. The fish in pet shops ( I didn't see any
dedicated aquarium shops) are mainly goldfish and live bearers, with very
few other species seen.

There used to be a mum and son from NZ on RML. Are you still there?
