What's the difference between the Australian and Indo Pacific?

I'm looking to purchase one but want to know what considerations should be made when comparing the two.

Fair better in what aspect?

Easier to keep?

as in better survival records even though there still very delicate..maybe better collection practices as wel hence the raise in price.

they sell a fish called a margin coral fish down here... they look heaps heaps simular just 1 less stripe i think i dont know if these are the aussie ones or what but its harder for me to get the fish in that picture then the one i mentioned.

from reading some stuff quickly i doubt i am correct but this is a photo of one anyway, mine has more definition on him then this one his spot is much more obvious.

If you are living in Australia, then these fish will be fairly easy to come by.

If you want more info PM me.

FYI.... I spoke to Live Aquaria and they stated that it is much more difficult to harvest the Australian than the Indo-Pacific, hence the difference in price.
