How big are they?
Awesome, are they still having issues with HLLE? Looks like they may be still.
I am considering one. I'm new to the reefin hobby so what's the difference. Yours are beautiful, but I seen close to same for 1/3 the price. I'm not trying to be rude, just learning.
Yes they were aquacultureNot being rude at all. Were the ones you saw aquaculture?
Some aquacultured fish are more expensive than wild caught. Banggai Cardinals and these Yellow Tangs are two examples. The 149$ is steep, but if I'm not mistaken aquacultured yellow tangs are still relatively new. The price may go down further in the years to come are more people become capable of breeding them in captivity and distribution becomes less of a hassle. You might not think 150$ is worth it, but you're not accounting for the intrinsic value of sustainability. There are most certainly people in this hobby who will buy an aquacultured yellow tang specifically because it was not removed from the ocean.Part of aquaculture is having them bred and not taking from the ocean, ur asking 150 for a fish that you can get from other suppliers from the ocean for like 30$. How is this helping the ocean? People are going to get the cheaper one over yours and take from the ocean, part of breeding the fish is more supply.....so the cost should go down...not trying to be rude or anything but 149 is a steep steep price for a yellow tang that u can get at a petco for 30$....yeah different care and all but there are others that sell them for no more than 50$
Really? Are you sure someone wasn't lying to you? I've had someone at a typical LFS say that 90% of the fish they sell are aquacultured (obviously a lie), so I'm not calling you a liar, but I'm saying its entirely possible you were told one.Yes they were aquaculture
I agree there are people that would but 150 is steep for me at least...I can buy a used skimmer for that price....I don't get paid a lot in South Dakota so money is one of my priorities...paying the bills, staying alive...lol. if I know I can raise our keep a yellow tang, I personally would buy the 50$ one because I know it's one fish that wool survive and thrive amd won't have to buy another one.Some aquacultured fish are more expensive than wild caught.
