How cool is this?

Captive bred flame angelfish are so real they’re already being flaunted for sale at the Backer trade show in Chicago of all places. Who would have thought that we would see evidence for successfully raised pygmy angelfishes not once, but twice in one week – first it was the captive bred Caribbean pygmy angelfish from RCT Hawaii and now these flame angelfish which are reportedly “made in Los Angelesâ€.

That's awesome. Let's hope this is just the beginning of more species of captive bred angels.

gotta get all fish captive bred! New Hawaii law sucks, I grew up in a fish collection area and believe me they are not lacking fish at all.

Thanks for posting! I feel like its so much better if they grow up with the walls instead of going from ocean to tank.

Very interesting! I followed the link to the article about cherub angelfish and that is exciting as well.
