Some addtional updates: Bocas Mariculture reports the successful cultivation of Serranus flaviventris, which didn't make it onto the list, and two accomplishments initially attributed to Bocas were in fact reported by Till Deuss from earlier when he was working with Biota Palau, so these have been attributed to the Biota Group with date information.Matt Pedersen says:
It's been brought to my attention that we overlooked the first breeding of Corythoichthys conspicillatus by Pholium Mariculture in the UK, which occurred in 2022. And thus, the first addition to the next list is already known!CORAL Magazine’s Captive-Bred Marine Fish Species List for says:
