Biota Captive-Bred Potter's Angelfish

[Biota_Marine Verified Sponsor]

After years of trying to crack the Potter's Angelfish our amazing team in Hawaii and the Oceanic Institute has successfully captive-bred the Potter's Angelfish. I'm incredibly thankful for the support of all of our vendors, hobbyists, and friends around the industry who have made this feat possible. This first batch is going out exclusivly to our stores but we are working on more batches to have them readily available.

Amazing work! I have bought yellow tangs, a marine betta, coral beauty and a blue tang from Biota and all have been amazing. I love the work you guys put in and the industry looks bright and sustainable thanks to that work.

This is amazing! I had hoped to add this fish to my garden eel tank, but then the ban went into effect. Bravo Biota!!!!!!

Fantastic news!! Place me on your list for two. I have one and want a trio. . . seriously

Great stuff! If I didn’t have my medical device career, this would definitely be the type of work I would be interested in.

Retirement plan, to breed captive bred fish. Only 28 years to go haha

That's tremendous news. Well done Biota. Captive bred is the future of our hobby.

As I mentioned on Dr.Reefs thread, it’s awesome but the price tag is too high for me right now

Great achievement.

Should I assume these would not cohabit nicely with a (Biota) Coral Beauty?

Is there a price posted for these yet?

 

[Reef Republica]

This is so awesome! Seems like the last few months we have seen so many species added to the Captive Bred list.. Truly amazing work! Love all the hard work and dedication you all put into it, truly thank you!

I'd say no. Two dwarf angels.

Looks like he may have removed the posts he posted a couple days ago about them. But they were listed at $999. His website has an announcement they’re available but no link.

Edit: Found it - https://drreefsquarantinedfish.com/product/potters-angelfish-captive-bred/

LOL, $999 - Supply and demand I guess. I know a lot goes into breeding these, but hopefully Biota will set a better price and sell them directly to customers, like their yellow tangs.
