Powder blues at J&L

MAC (Marine Aquarium Council) is a possible solution, even with it's faults. Some are being addressed at the moment, but there is still a long way to go.

An important factor in all of this is the informed hobbiest. This thread is a perfect example.Putting pressure on LFS and wholesale companies, to not carry items that are difficult/impossible to keep is a start. How about implementing an USL (Unsuitable Species List) for wholesale/LFS to not purchase?

Many captive bred/raised items are available. Unfortunately on the whole these items are more expensive than wild caught. A poll was taken a while ago about this topic and the majority of posters to this board said they would buy CB items even at a premium. This is not the case for the majority of the hobbiest as price ,which was even stated as a major factor for purchases in a previous posting, is the single biggest factor on what they buy and where they buy it.

Who knows?
