Biota is having a fish sale. Blue tang 75 dollars.

I see Biota as more of a shop for Captive Bred fish that are hard to care for when caught in the wild.. like Blue streak wrasse, Mandarin Goby and of course Yellow Tangs! I feel even wild caught Blue tangs do well in our reefs, so would not personally ever buy those from Biota

Got ethical reefing
Buy the farmed fish, leave the wild ones on the reef!

I totally understand the ethical part of it, but personally, I would only buy fish 2x their wild caught counterparts only if they have a better chance of surviving vs the wild caught ones.. I know Blue tang is prone to diseases, but the one I have has seen ich, flukes, hypo in 4 months it has been with me and still is a fat beautiful fish.. Again, personal opinion, and I completely understand why anybody would think differently
