Well then that brings up a interesting point in that a LFS could get their hands on quality if they choose to and as a wholesaler you are privy to this information ... now a LFS that proudly advertises non-cyanide caught fish and has to pay a premium for it can get a premium in return ... for one thing there wont be as much die-off in their own tanks before they even get sold and they could QT the fish as well which as hobbyists appreciate since there seems to be a large number that cant resist putting that new fish into their tanks right away but at the risk of infecting all the fish in their tanks by doing so ...

the majority of people you say would buy the fish even if it was cyanide caught I bet ya dont even know that fish can be caught with cyanide ... what needs to be done is to educate the public of the advantages of net caught over cyanide caught ... ask anyone that has been on one of these boards for at least a few months how much they have learned about the hobby as a whole and they appreciate the education these boards provide ... nice to see another point of view ... hope that does not hurt your head too much ?

Cheers
