A very interesting afternoon

[mark]

Can across Doug’s (http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/member.php?u=7974) name looking for Banggai but heard he had neon gobies so went over.

Though Doug had sent some pictures of his other tanks I was totally amazed at his breeding setup for clowns and gobies. For clowns he has various designer types and is doing selective breeding of those. Seeing the gobies from breeding pair with eggs, fry of different sizes through to adults again amazing. And it wasn’t just seeing but having it explained made the afternoon.

Hat’s off to Doug for keeping fish in the reef.

Thanks Mark,
It was great meeting and talking to you. ( hope I didn't talk to much ) But I have a love for the hobby as you and many others do. And sharing it, with others makes the days worth while.

Thanks
Doug

Kudos to you Doug and other breeders out there. I look at the fish in my tank from time to time feeling bad for not knowing where they came from or how they were caught. I bought 3 of those neons last year at J&L and when I realized the price tag I was kinda shocked and asked for them to be put back in the tank. :sad:
Thanks to people like you having the option for the next tank will be well worth the extra few dollars and peace of mind

Keep up the hard work!
