Would PETA Approve??
 
Found myself nearly alone in the saltwater aisle at a large LFS today, standing next to a tank full of emaciated Yellow Tangs. Another tank right beside was FULL of grape caulerpa that they are selling (by the FOOT).

I quickly snapped off a strand of greens, and plopped it into the Tangs' tank. They got right into it!

Thanks to all of you who've shared "my Yellow Tang loves caulerpa" stories!

:biggrin:

Man that's genius, kudos. I avoid that LFS (I am almost certain of which one you mean), mainly because everytime I go in there, I see starving tangs, triggers, etc. in every tank.

Is that the same as eating grapes as you walk around the grocery store? :biggrin:

A better idea might be to pretend that your interested in buying a fish, but you want to see it eat first. Tell them you have your eye on a couple of fish in each tank. That way they can all have a taste. :mrgreen:
