hallo can i downgrate mobius to ectotech firmware? Thank youMatt Pedersen says:
Doug, only the Goldflake Angel is produced as captive bred with any sort of routine. They are occasionally released by Bali Aquarich. You need to find vendors/retailers who carry Bali Aquarich fish, and work down from there. Best of luck, this search will require a fair amount of patience.Thanuja sathsarani sanjeewani says:

HI MIKE I AM WHOLESALER OR ORNAMENTAL FISHES IN FRANCE . POSSIBLE TO JOIN YOU ? BEST REGARDSRichie Walsh says:
I have a huge bloom of upside down jellyfish in my reef tank. Guessing they hitch hiked on live rock. I've removed as many as I can especially when they go free swimming however they are reproducing at an alarming rate and stinging my corals. Are there any aquarium predators that eat their polyps?Robert Swisher says:
Please do not stop the collection of reef fish . If you do you should also ban any fishing and snorkeling. as both harm more of the reef
