fishfanatic Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Hi all, new to this forum but already loving it. Im Jono and Im from New Zealand. I know, but I will be moving to Australia sometime next year. I love bettas and have a few of them. I also have guppies. I will lookforward to the day when I will be able to own some of the amazing bettas you have in Australia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuckie Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Hi, how are you? Welcome to AAQ! And welcome to Oz, when you get here Are you moving here for work, study, family, other? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishfanatic Posted April 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 (edited) Thanks, I will be moving over with family. So will have to sell off all my fish. But then I will be able to get some amazing fighters so it will be awesome and worth it. So when I move over will be very keen to meet some people that keep and breed bettas. And learn what you do differently etc. Edited April 10, 2009 by Bettarazzi deleted quote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bettarazzi Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Hi Jono. Welcome to the forum. You can't get nice bettas in NZ? That's a shame. I know there's a thriving killifish community. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there's a thriving killifish community. Hi thanks. There are nice bettas in NZ, just not as much variety as Oz and therefore not as much stunning bettas. Will post some pics soon.

evil2 Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 Kia Ora Jono. I'm originally from Kawerau and have also settled in QLD. I live near/on the Redcliffe Peninsula (the bit that sticks out on the coast just above Brisbane) and have not looked back since. However on saying that, NZ was a great place to grow up in . We definitely need more Betta fanatics in QLD . Linley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
