I think you mean you changed your backyards geology.
Unless you're a tectonic plate, you likely didnt alter the earths geology at all.

but hey, nothing wrong a few delusions of grandeur...

Last I checked my backyard was a part of the earth. I could be wrong though and may need to have this independently verified. Stay tuned..

What an excellent point.
spoken like a true layman.

Thank you for the science lesson Bill Nye.

With such a succinct point of view, you must have a newsletter...
how can I subscribe?

Let me know if you ever do verify your facts.
something tells me it's a rare occurence over there.

I am quite certain there are many more inverts that can be captive bred including clams more anemones and some urchins.

Virtually every coral can be captive bred through fragging.

Many LFS do carry captive bread stock, but ORA stuff can be pretty pricey I have heard so many LFS still stock wild caught species quite often. The best thing you can do is just ask the LFS the tell you the captive bred critters they carry. Then you can make an informed decision. Maybe you went in for a tomato clown, but it turns out it is wild caught so you opt for the percula, which is captive bred instead..I am not sure if you are this kind of consumer but it doesn't hurt to ask the salesman at the store.
