I really appreciate your posting. You have a high ethical standard.
We reefers have the right to demand ethical suppliers.
My concern isalso with the issue of cyanide caught fish. Many reefers on this board tear their hair out trying to save their fish not knowing that they are cyanide caught (and that is why they are so cheap), If they are cyanide caught as most angels, tangs and triggers are from the Phillipines and Indonesia there is a couple of things we need to do.
Whether online store of LFS we need to always ask where the fish came from. If we don`t trust the answer we should ask to see their invoice.
If the fish is from PI, we need to see that it is certified net caught.
FYI cyanide caught fish are prone to ich, bacterial and fungal infections and because their internals are affected cannot recover and often die even though they are eating. Sound familiar?
