i heard that the other day from the LFS, they said yellow tangs and a few others are gonna jump in price soon, i guess i better get em while there cheap huh? i guess thats good for the fish though, i dont want to see them over-harvested, especialy when they go to the tanks of owners who dont know how to keep fish, its for the best.

Yeah, i think it's about time research went into breeding some of the less willing species. Tank bred fish are a lot more suited for the aquarium environment and dont get stressed out as much. | |

So for all I care they could charge 1000 for them. I always check their prices against online prices and so far they beat them every time. | |
