As you could probably guess, I too am all for captive raised over wild caught.

Of course as a breeder of Bangaiis I am biased perhaps, but I do believe in the preservation of the species by reducing wild catches. My two Oscellaris clowns are captive raised.

But I too fall under the category of "price conscious" or even cheap. If my captive raised Bangaiis were being sold for twice the price of wild caughts, why would anyone (except for ethical type reasons) buy the more expensive ones?

I think that it boils down to increasing the awareness of the advantages of having captive bred livestock over their wild caught counterparts.
