Lol. But I'm sure you could still get a tour of the facility!I was joking lol. But i love really close I guess.
Amen, if you are at all empathetic a fish keeper you will only feel a sadness when viewing certain species in cramped situations.I'm just imagining a 4 inch fish as active as an angel swimming in a display only 18 inches long (evo)... would be sad to look at

this. Please don't misunderstand, I am 100% supportive of captive breeding and will gladly pay the difference for a captive bred fish, because it soothes my (sometimes very loud and boisterous) conscience.
I don't think I'm a fan of Biota's approach with their "Bonsai" line though, at least as much as I've been able to read. It sounds like they are intentionally keeping the fish in smaller aquariums to force an unnatural adaptation, so they (Biota) can sell them to unsuspecting small tank owners. My brain insists on making a random association with puppy mills. I may rethink my plan to buy a Biota CB.
They don't keep them in small accommodations at their facilities from anything I've seen or heard online
They say it here, in the section headed "Behavior in theTank"

"Luckily, our cultured Coral Beauties are raised in small aquariums and therefore are acclimated to this size aquarium.
They behave differently as a result of our conditioning process and they will do well in the Biota Aquarium"
I didn't mean to imply that they aren't healthy though, I have no way of knowing that. My comment about puppy mills was only referring to the image the statement from Biota's website conjures up in my head. I apologize if anyone took it any other way.
