Hello all,
I just got into this hobby. I added my very first fish and a couple CUC to the quarantine tank today. It's a little clownfish. I could see how frightened he was by the whole ordeal and it made me worried that maybe I'm not doing the right thing. I am really fascinated by marine ecosystems and genuinely care for the well-being of my creatures. How can I do this as ethically as possible?
I want to avoid anything that is taken from the ocean. Is there a way to verify things are captive bred?
I want to buy from stores that genuinely care for the well-being of their fish. How can I tell a good fish store from a bad one?
Is there anything else I could be doing to make sure the fish are living their best life? I don't want them to live insufferable lives.
How do you guys feel about it?
