jonpoh Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 Hi Guys, This is Jonathan Poh from Singapore. I have found this website via the link from ABC. The reason why I am looking into Australia's betta scene is because I will be coming over to Australia for studies next year. Hence I am looking into establishing my passion over there too.. (Simply can't live without bettas. LOL!) Like what all people come into this site for.. .. I am interested in keeping fishes.. (Show Bettas, Show Guppies, Discus, killies, Planted tanks, platys and etc) I am also into growing carnivorous plants and some other interesting plants. I am into the arts; singing, playing the piano, acting and etc. Yup.. that's about all.. Will keep this post updated !!

jonpoh Posted October 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 Hi Guys, Thanks for the warmth welcome! Well.. I will likely be studying in Tasmania.. Anyone have any ideas of the "how-abouts" of importing bettas in Tas? For carnivorous plants (cps), I have been keeping nepenthes, Sundews, Droseras, venus fly traps, utricularias. Yup! That's about all! Regards Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Posted October 7, 2006 Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 Hmmm Tassie is not so importing friendly. They are a bit funny when it comes to getting things from the "Mainland" and overseas. Someone else might beable to shed more light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figure_8 Posted October 7, 2006 Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 Someone has looked into it recently... Celeste I think. aha! found the link I was thinking of http://ausaqua.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=2822&st=15 HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterJ Posted October 7, 2006 Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 I got a mate who's into cps - used to hve a nepenthes collection myself. Do you know Geoff and Andrea from Exotica Plants? They're amongst the worlds best growers, up in Childers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonpoh Posted October 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Hey guys, Thanks for all the info! Its seems to me that hand-carrying fishes into Tasmania sounds easy. (If it is according to what Celeste84 said ) What are the procedures of hand-carrying fishes to Australia itself? Regards Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celeste84 Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 easiest way would be to send them to someone (for quarantine) and then have her send them to you when you're in tassie via air express sent you the info like you asked, i also have a copy of the .pdf for the required form on my HD if you want it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
