This post was ultimately about the consumer and not aimed at any "vendor(s)" directly. The consumer is who drives the market, and I am guilty of buying wild corals when I first started just like anyone else; however, knowing what I know now I just simply think people should make better decisions when buying anything that comes directly from the wild...
Certain species will almost always be from the wild like most euphyllia type soft corals etc etc. It is the reef building SPS that I am talking about...
Aquaculture whether by the basement enthusiast or business is the future of this hobby, plain and simple.
