Better future for Banggais

I think, for me, Rotifers are eaiser than dealing with BB every day...JMO.

Maybe I'll look into trying a batch of clowns if I'm able to keep these little banggai alive, thanks for the encouragement. I'm only looking at this as a hobbyist who really enjoys raising the babies, not looking to make it a huge commercial endeavor though.

Same here. I just feed my bucket once a day and try to harvest/partial water change one a week...not too much work, but maybe I have been lucky...Phytoplankton manual from Florida aqua farms helped.

vitz-
funny you make that comment....Alex is the worlds most noted expert on banggai cardinalfish, he has traveled to the banggai archipelago 3-5 times and he has personally performed the census that you see published. His most recent census suggested collection of over 700,000 of these fish annually, and unfortunately it also showed a major decline in banggai populations thruout the archipelago. Yes I believe the data

hey, i was just asking it's just that close to 2000/day minimum every day of the year seems like an awful lot for any species.

do most go to non u.s. markets ?
