First blue tang successfully captive bred!


Recommended Posts

Epic stuff here!!! Check out their facebook page (Rising Tide) for lots more pics. I will also plug the MBI workshop in Detroit this weekend as the man who was the lead on this project - Kevin Barden - will be in attendance as well as Chad Callahan the lead responsible for the first captive yellow tangs, among other giants in marine ornamental breeding.

Just read about it, pretty sweet. I'm really happy to start seeing some tang's being bred in captivity. Hopefully they can be mass produced like clowns are now.

The yellows were done in fair numbers and released as one large batch. I will know more after this weekend on the Hawaii groups ability to produce a commercial number consistently.
