i'm pretty sure i'll get it for this post but its ok, i feel i've earned the right to speak my mind on here. i think alot of the time people should keep their mouth shut as to what 'THEY' feel should be allowed into someone elses tank. where someone gets off deciding what should and shouldnt be allowed to be sold or kept is beyond me. if you really stand back and think outside the box, nothing we put in our tanks should technically be there. but at the end of the day the hobbyist is the strongest researcher in marine life when it comes to owning an aquarium. we spend more time on our tanks and staring into them for endless hours than actually scientists do in the lab. yes i agree there is alot of losses of marine life in the industry but there is a greater loss in the wild with global warming. all the time spent in attacking others for their decisions or protesting stores or suppliers for what they are bringing should be spent in trying to make a difference in the environment.
hats off to you for doing a great job in not only keeping your livestock alive but obviously having them thrive. sorry i couldnt find the regulations on timelines of keeping livestock alive to prove your success. but by the sounds of it, it exists. along with the red and yellow fish list.
"thank you, come again"
