Ethics of Reef Keeping: The Unwritten Rules

PETA should stick to hot naked chicks in the street protesting.

Maybe my peacock mantis is sad in his 90 gal lps reef, but he’s awfully happy when I drop a baby yellow tang in for him to play with. (Jk, he’s only eaten 1 tang and he kinda deserved it for hanging out by the mantis burrow.)

That was expensive food. And not sure it’s the tangs ‘fault’. It’s not like it had an entire reef to choose from. But there is the Darwin aspect. Some would that doesnt apply to reed tanks. I tend to agree. Pick things that get along. Jmho
