This is in general however, after reading about the new improvement of CB Purple tangs my interest in this topic spiked. You’re probably wondering ‘what’ that topic is so here it is!
What is the difference between Wild Caught Fish and Captive Bred Fish as soon as CB versions hit markets?
For example;
When the Captive Bred Yellow Tangs came out, it was like the Wild Caught Specimens just never got spoken about again and now, I’m aware Hawaii shut before CB YTs came into circulation however for those who have worked in or maybe own a fish shop, you’re likely to know Yellow Tangs aren’t actually Hawaiian Endemics and can be found in larger quantities around Indonesia. But it’s like WC yellows just went off the market altogether.
So, what is it that happens when the Captive Bred Fish come onto markets?
P.S. I don’t have a YT so enjoy my regal instead as these seem to have followed a similar pattern.
