Betta_Endeavours Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Hi everyone My name is Joanne and while new to the forum, I'm not new to bettas. I've had a couple of years off after some bad disasters but I couldn't pass up the chance to get back into them again. This time I will be restarting with better stock I am partial to Plakats and also aspire to own Greens (wine/beer bottle green) which I haven't ever been able to get in any tail type Anyway enough for now. So looking forward to meet ing all of you here :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Welcome Joanne! Good to see more betta enthusiasts on board Have you had a look at www.aquabid.com Jess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betta_Endeavours Posted May 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Hi Jess Is importing Bettas easier now? I know when myself and a former friend were looking into it and trying to arrange it, it was far from easy. I'm asking because I'm seeing mainly Thai breeders on Aquabid right now unless there are Australians with listings and I've been missing them? Anyway thanks for the welcome :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 You can import fish from almost any seller from Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia or Malaysia. Have a look at this thread http://ausaqua.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=436 someone - Lea (someone) imports regularly and sends them out to everyone If you have more questions you can ask in that thread :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have two dogs - A red Min Pin called Copper (indoors and spoilt) and a Germ Shep x Aus Kelpie called Ally which we got from the RSPCA (she lives inside now because of behaviour issues but is kept well away from Copper). I also have 2 Oscars (1 Tiger 1 Albino) which earlier this year moved into our 6ft tank and there is an old Angelfish and 3 Bristlenose in a tall 3ft tank. Last but not least is our two Cockatiels (a lutino and a grey) which were hand raised to make them tamer. Oh year I play online sites and spend way to much time yacking with my US friends lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightingfishfancier Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Hello and Welcome Joanne. Great to have another south aussie here too. Love the sound of you house with the lots of different animals, growing up our house was like that too, just brilliant. cheers, Heidi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bettarazzi Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Hi Joanne, I'm interested in greens as well, although just at the moment I'd be happy to spawn anything and get them to survive past a week. I've also just returned to the hobby after an absence of nearly 10 years. Things have changed a lot. I'll keep you in mind if I ever get any greens worth sharing. Cheers, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Yay! another Adelaidian. We are pretty spread out here. I am up at Golden Grove. You have a little menagerie happening :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betta_Endeavours Posted May 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Wow I wish I had found this place before I had walked away from the hobby before. I grew up in Dernancourt about 2 to 3 mins walk from Hope Valley Reservoir and about just over a minute from Balmoral Rd. Now I live in Noarlunga Downs which is a world away but we have a fantastic view at this house Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbies Betta Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Hi Joanne, it sure is good to have an other SA person on here and like Jess said, we deff are spread out all over the place, I used to be obsessed with the deep grass/emerald green bettas. never saw any in real life, just pics on the net. So now I work mainly on blues, but trying to branch out into yellows, reds and opaques :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
