    Hello
    JessB_Hello_zps173027b8.jpg

  3. Did you say sydney....Come to SSS for the xmas break up tomorrow!!!

    me and James will gladly talk to you about everything fish!!!

    Cheap sand: playsand or bunnings has ok sand just be sure to check parameters as some will take longer to cycle than others

    Driftwood and plants we have wholesale accounts so we are cheaper than live fish etc

    id suggest Mekong river wood If your gonna use lots of small pieces or gold vine if your after one big branchy tree feature piece

    What you actually choose to use substrate wise and plant wise will depend on things like your lighting, any co2 (I'd stay steer clear of the co2 for now) and what you want it to look like.

    Hopefully that helps a touch but seriously come to SSS at labyrinth tomorrow for a chat everyone's friendly enough and we are up from Melbourne for it ;)

  4. yah stunning.
    found the answer to your q :)
    Serkan answered it on another forum when i asked a few months ago :)

    "Currently on the allowable import list we only have Aphyosemion (which within it encompasses genera Fundulopanchax, Chromaphyosemion, Mesoaphyosemion, Roloffia etc.), Epiplatys and the Asian genus Aplocheilus.

    The Eurasian genus Aphanius, South American Rivulus and all the peat spawning genera from there (Simpsonichthys etc.), and the African peat spawning genus Nothobranchius are not on the allowable import list.

    I would imagine for the Rivulus it is just a case that no one tried to put it on the allowable import list as it occupies the same niche as Aphyosemion in Africa, but it just happens to be from South America."

  5. Serkan,killiguy or David would be best from memory nothobranchius are the main no no killi but some people In aus do have them. Epiplatys and aphyosemion are both allowed

    the main thing is availability/sourcing species can sometimes be hard especially since most of our fish inports come from south east Asia
