Do your homework before purchasing online.
There are both genuine and fake sellers out there.
Unless that fish is really unique or must have, I would suggest you to purchase locally.

You must think how u going to ship the fish in. Doesnt mean u provide home address, the fish will deliver to your house. Some times custom or ava will hold the shipment as no import permit for the fishes.

Think carefully before doing it.

Ts, honest the logistics involved bringing in livestock literally kills.

Not too long ago I was pondering bringing one of my young xb into aussie.

The statutory quarantine period : 3 months.

For each day, I need to pay ausd xx.00

Why bother to go so far to buy ? Local Fishes are far more better, safe and secure. Suggest you look around locally, go some walking exercise.

Exclamation Buying from Thailand

DONT EVER EVER BUY FROM THAILAND

Last year , I got cheated my a person call himself BETRAND ANGEH .
I remitted $600 and After that he said he needed more money to be send before he can freight the fish over ...
He even referred me to someone in Singapore who bought a arowana from him.
After catching up with this person , I was Cautioned by him that he ,too was cheated of more than $5000.

I ve learnt my lesson after that .... NEVER , NEVER BUY FROM OVERSEAS UNLESS YOU SEE THE FISH AND MET WITH THE DEALER YOURSELF ...
