Loaches in Sydney?
Posted: Tue May 20, 2014 7:34 am
Hi again,
Sorry, I know this one is asked a lot, but I couldn't find anything very recent and the scene is always changing (I was shocked to discover St George, my favourite Sydney LFS, closed years ago!).
So, my questions are:
1. Are there any shops in the Sydney area that fairly consistently keep a selection of available loaches? I'm in Berowra, so northern Sydney and Central coast easiest, but happy to travel further for a half-decent selection.
2. At the moment is anyone aware of anything out there in Sydney beyond the standard clowns, yoyos, chains and kuhlis? I'm especially keen on Zebras (B. striata, unlikely I know) and what sort of hillstreams might be around. On the outside chance, I should also ask if anyone has EVER seen anything like Nemacheilus, Schistura or similar "long" loaches?
Thanks and cheers, Chris.
