Alligators Nest, Tully is a coming together of two gorgeous freshwater creeks flowing down from the tropical mountains in Far North Queensland and is situated in Tully Gorge National Park, Tully.
The name ‘Alligators Nest’ has nothing to do with the reptile and everything to do with the local Scout Group - which it was named after. In fact it’s one of the waterholes in Far North Queensland that actually doesn’t have any crocodiles lurking in it! but as you will see in this video, there are plenty of fish.
The species found while filming in this spot:
Khaki or Tully Grunter (Hephaestus tulliensis), Sooty Grunter (Hephaestus fuliginosus), Wet Tropics Tandan (Tandanus tropicanus), Jungle Perch (Kuhlia rupestris), Southern Purple Spotted Gudgeon (Mogurnda adspersa), Pacific Blue Eye (Pseudomugil signifer), Eastern Rainbowfish (Melanotaenia splendida splendida).
No real aquatic plants where seen in this area that consists of mainly crushed granite rock.
