  You have done it again Jason. Another amazing video, they keep getting better and better. The underwater footage was spectacular. Do the Litchfield Rainbowfish differ much from others found in different locations in the NT? I know fish cannot be collected from within the national park but does this partcular variant exist outside the park? By the way, Nick and Harland should be grateful for your snoring. Obviously it is a protective device to drive away all the dangerous night time creatures!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

• 
  @australianbiotopes45635 күн бұрын

  Thank you! actually some of the variants outside the park look even better from what I saw, like the ones from the last video, up in the Territory the Black Banded Rainbows are like the Dubs of the North, they are everywhere and in great numbers, it makes me wonder why we don't see them more in the hobby here on the east coast, they are a pretty fish especially in a school, I used to breed them years ago but gave up as they weren't that popular. About the snoring thing you are right, nothing will disturb an old Grizzly bear while it's sleeping 🤣 years ago I was sleeping in a tent like one of those at Mary Kathleen at a free camp near Mount Isa and while I was sleeping something pushed my head from outside so I woke up and punched it through the tent thinking it was someone trying to rob me, I had the tent tied to a barb wire fence and it was the only grassy spot, it turned out a cow was trying to push my tent out of the way through the fence to get to the grass and I punched it in the nose, it had a pretty docile look on it's face when I got out to check what it was, but left me alone for the rest of the night 🙂

  I just don’t understand why there are not greater restrictions on species the aquarium trade can sell, and why criminalising the release of non native species cannot be reinforced at point of sale. Mum and dad getting little Johnny a fishtank for his room may not have any idea they are doing the wrong thing in liberating the family pet once its outgrown its tank. Educate these people at point of sale and warn of the severe consequences, environmentally as well as legally.
