you'll need an import licence.
a good exporter.
lots of space for the imports....(they do not sell in small amounts)
and of course cold hard plastic cash!

Most suppliers sell a minimum of $1000US worth of livestock and then it requires approx $1500US additional for shipping and customs fees etc.

I did not pay attention to my pond/ vessel , a frog layed eggs and that was the end of five 4-5 inch body orandas and some smaller red caps that were recently acquired from Boundary Rd Extension. I search Google and people seem to think that frogs are good for your pond . I have never met a pond person in TnT that shares this view.

Chais has some pretty koi on the outside of the main shed . After I cleaned up and set the water I got about 8 some Hakarimoyo and Tancho

folks
I need two healthy RED male ruykins for breeding purposes.
The lone male I have just EH DOIN' NUTHIN.......... I'm one inch from feeding his @r$e to the arapaima........
in the meantime, my 2 females are now at bursting point, nobody shedding eggs, so I'm in trouble. If I can't get a good quality male I will set up my fantail comets with the females & use the spawn as feed stock...( can't let resource waste...)
At least I will buy time to condition for next time.
Tks asst

There are various types of clear and semi translucent plastic sheets available at many hardware stores . I have used these extensively in a similar application for fish . You will need to soap the plastic at least twice as there are often chemicals on the plastic that would be more toxic than soap to tropical fish .

I usually soap with powder twice in one session and then again a few day later after rinsing thoroughly before each application . Leave out side to dry in the sun and rain , after a week give a rinse off and you should be good to go . Depending on the size of your pond this may or may not be an option for you . As these sheets are usually not more than 60 to 70 inches wide .
