I agree with rob. Give us Aussies some love! We don't get the selection available to us like you do in the US. We need some colour!
 
I reckon. I've never seen any half decent zoas in Australia. Just the same old brown and green ones in every shop. And don't get me started on acros!
Anyway, this could turn into a very long angry rant about the coral industry/ collectors and how they really are all about the money. So ill stop here so I don't derail this thread lol.
 
I seen some nice ones accasionally some Rastas and cherryreds pallys but there few and far between always turn up when I don't have the cash lol
 
Don't you guys have some sort of reef in the north east? ;)

You can't get cheezels through Aussie customs, you don't stand a chance with zoas!
 
Shipping live animal including live coral, inverts, and fish, from/to USA for cites or non cites animal, personal or commercial must follow proper
declaration to US Fish and Wildlife Service.
In addition for commercial transaction import/export permit for live product from US Fish and Wildife is required.

EU doesn't require cites permit for scleractinia (subtrate). However certain countries like UK and Japan requires pre approval before shipment of live animal under cites appendix II.

It is illegal to ship without declaring the shipment to USFWS, steep fine per coral basis and mandatoty jail time as per Lacey Act.
