Tung Hoi Update Options

[Mortevicar]

I received confirmation today that the authorities have destroyed the entire Tung Hoi stock - apparently hundreds of thousands of fish are now dead - this information is not common knowledge as importers are scared this will "frighten" off customers for good - I feel we, as goldfish enthusiasts have the right to know - my entire tank was virtually wiped out because of SVC from fish from Tung Hoi.

Tung Hoi has been shut down until a full investigation is complete.

Importing of goldfish to Australia from China has been banned until further notice.

As far as i know, no one really is affected by Tung Hoi in NSW.

I know Trans, SLS, Tao and afew other import from the best breeders of Goldfish in Asia, so they should be ok. John Irwin's fish would be good too since he doesnt get from Tung Hoi.

I think AQIS should be more strict when fish are imported into Australia, but then again, we dont want them to totally ban the importation of goldfish like koi.
