I think Sam made a very good point.

However, I think the price for tank-raised fish will drop eventually as more company are doing it and with better success due to increase of knowledge and technology.

I also think the price for wild fish will rise due to increase of ( salary, environment, permit, etc ).

At the end, it will made economic sense even for the average reefer to buy tank raise fish. Just look at the fresh water side. (I know breeding clown is not like breeding neon tetra but you get the point). The question will be how soon we can get there. Actually, for some saltwater fish such as Bangaii cardinal, we are there already.

As for me, I would get a tank-raised one if the price difference is not too large. Size is not an issue for me as I like to get fish small and grow them up.
