I can attest to the pro's and con's of CB fish.
As a store that tries to get as much CB fish in the store, there are a few factors that we have to consider. We deal with the likes of ORA and such, and have our own local breeding facility for a few species of clownfish, gobies, and seahorses
These are some of the things we have come accoss.
-CB fish are more expensive than wild caught
-CB take a lot of time and work to get to sellable size.
-CB are used to man made water
-CB seem to see less disease, but that could be due to the lack of pathogens in our water, doesn't prover they are more or less immune.
WC are cheaper, but mortality rates are lower
WC have more selection, and there are not as much selection of CB fish.
