Hi just wondering how what species of whiptails are available? I've had royals before but i'm not too familiar with how many species are actually available. Scientific and common names would help a lot.
Thanks,
Elliott

At the moment at Aquotix we have long nose whiptails and normal whiptails, currently we have no royal whiptails.
All are at a decent size - around 5-10cm we have a decent amount but not alot
Cheers,
Glen.

Yes they are available in the wild
You asked for a list that's available *chuckles*
Some of these might be or might not be available in Australia, by giving you these names, you can research and then ask if any LFS carries them. Otherwise you can call up every single LFS and ask them if they have whiptails and what kind.

Fancy a trip to SA to find a few?
There is definitely a few on that list I know you cannot get, and I suspect its likely some others cannot be imported
What has been mentioned by Az and spud91 is what is commonly available.
