[Ron Popeil]

i was looking at a stock list for ERI and saw that they had captive bred chrysopterus from australia available.

anyone know anything about this or have experiences with them?

Who is this message for?

OH ERI mean exotic reef imports..I guess you can't directly order from them huh? I don't want to get more chrysopterus just was curious and wanted to see pictures of the tank raised Chrysopterus

Ron Popeil, Did you successfully raise the chrysopterus fry and then sell them? That thread was an amazing read. I hope I can one day raise the fry of my chrysopterus. They are still in the QT and they are doing great.

christina, yes i did raise a few, thank you for the nice compliment. one day ill get around to updating that thread. in short, i have just one juvenile left from that whole experience but am working on starting over.

as for Exotic Reef Imports, its just struck me as exciting that there is a captive bred stock of this delicate species of fish and wondered if anyone else knew of this. or has ever seen a captive bred chrys in recent days purchased through ERI...

A friend at a LFS here ordered from them a couple of years ago, if I remember right. No complaints, although they said there wasn't a huge selection of stock.

That message was for the thread starter.
