Red Tails @ Maidenhead

Was in Maidenhead at Crew's Hill yeterday and they had several 4" or so red tails for sale. I was quite surprised as I thought they were a bit of a 'no-no' in the trade now. What is the current thinking on red tail trade?

Red tails should be imported "on request". Anyone who has adequate resources to care for such a fish also has the patience to wait for the fish to arrive in the country. If more in a hurry, there's always fish available to rescue or for sale on ebay.

I'm sure Maidenhead has a "no tankbuster" policy, so I'm a bit surprised too.

I'd agree with Mats on all counts
