You won't get them sent from anywhere man. It's just luck as far as getting one thats here goes. They might get get smuggled in ocassionaly but I'm sure you won't hear about it and I'm sure PCS don't want anything like that on there forum.

I went and bought some BNs of Johno today and had a pat of his and watched it feed. Beautiful fish!

i bought two about two years ago but let them go when i started to find my temensis in their mouths. LOL

great fish, now that my other fish have grown, ill love to get my hands on one or two again, but theres no other catfish out there that have such colours and attitude. Love them.

If theres some around the 30cm mark, id grab one too........
No places over east that would send em over perhaps? Or will fisheries seize such a fish? even considering that its in the country already

I'm assuming he means that he let them go as in sold them.

I've had RTC sent over by AAE a few times, never a problem.

Oh so you can get them sent here?

Man I can't keep up with all the laws and what people are saying about different types of fish not being allowed or not being allowed to be imported exported... haha

Saying that I have only been living in Perth for the past 4 years.

Previous to that lived in Tasmania for the first 21 years of my life.

Been keeping fish since I was about 13. Use to work at my uncles friends tropical fish farm in St Leonards, Launceston on the weekends when I was young. My pay use to be fish.

Pretty sure it's still up and running now. His biggest export use to be Discus. "Pretty sure" it was a while ago haha

They were pretty impressive to look at!
