Affects from the Oil Spill?
 
Hey I am wondering if anyone has had any affects from the oil spill?

I know most of our livestock is captive breed, but still much of it comes from the wild. Anyone had issues with getting stock? Any vendors have any input?

I wish it were true but sadly maybe 1 or 2% in captive breed unlike freshwater.
We should not allow the import of wild fish where captive fish are available. Ditto for coral and inverts except for seed stock purposes.

OH I didn't realise that so much was wild caught! I guess its a moral price we pay so we can have these little glass boxes.
