im interested in buying bettas online as i cant seem to find a lfs with any decent stock. im interested in show quality bettas for breeding purposes, can any one recomend a site that will ship to australia?

thanks all

Ahhh AfricaMan! After my own heart *sigh*

Easy

Australians can now buy off Aquabid.com and have their purchases shipped through one of 2 importers, Jodi Lea (AussieBettas) or Kevin (SLS)

You can also buy from Straits Aquarium and have the fish bought through Gavin (Bexley Bettas & Aquatics)

All 3 will then ship Australia-wide


There are also some wonderful show breeders on the ground here in Australia, working on lines from SUthasine, Xman, Dong, and Stingrays, and quite a few more

What are you after? I can probably find you a breeder


Anyway, import, roughly $30AUD on top of the purchase price of the fish (which, if off Aquabid, the purchase price is in USD)

Contact Aussiebettas or SLS for exact details.
