Thanks @Slot. New pic coming. Will let you know about keeping. They are pretty small but I have three or four of the little guys along with some snails. Let me know if you have any thoughts on adding the snails as cleanup crew as well.
Thanks for the advice. Right now I have in a small QT with a heater, an air stone, and a powerhead. I will add a piece of live rock to get filtration going. So far I have tried feeding pellets but they were too heavy and sank to bottom. Going to try some flaked food that it can hopefully snatch as it passes by in current.
Not going to tell you your opinion is wrong because I respect your point of view. I guess my issue with that is that collection is contemplated under the recreational license. Additionally, I have a vast respect for wildlife and the environment. These were collected personally under a valid license in the interest of curiosity and in order to identify them. I see no difference morally in these bing collected under a recreational license and a commercial license with the intention of earning a profit. In fact I see much more opportunity for abuse where there is a profit motivation. I doubt my yellow tang caught off the coast of Hawaii cares much about the license he was caught under. My point is your critique applies equally to the aquaria trade (leaving aside tank breds) and you are either ok with it or not.
try some meaty foods.
Just because the adverse effect is small doesn't mean it's right, it's completely disrespectful to the ocean and horrible for the anemone. That was a dumb comment.. just saying but like with everything else in this forum, it's just one mans oponion.
