ya, I was going to try bringing in some of the local feather dusters into my tank (the purple and grey ones) but after a 30 or 40 e-mail exchange with Dr Ron I decided it was best left in the ocean. the reason being that there is no way for them to survive for very long in a different temp range. you would need to keep the water at a temp of 60 or less he figured to have any long term sucess with them. I agree that we have some beautiful stuff in our local waters but if you don't have the money to set up a proper environment for them then why take them from the ocean to die?
kinda like my visit to the lfs today, there was a couple in there looking for another fish for there 45 gal tank.. they already had a yellow tang, a sailfin tang and were looking at my foxface I took in.. I discouraged them from the foxface as it was big, so they started looking at another tang  Steve
