This is great information Luis! Thanks for sharing your journey with us. As pelagic spawners are a line that most of us have yet to cross I'm sure this will be a very important lesson that many of us will need to keep in mind.

What I'm curious about is how they survive in the wild if they are so fragile... any thoughts?

In the wild they don't bang into walls nearly as much.

Actually,the plankton isn´t disturbed with the typical offshore wave action;they move with the water.

Thanks Chad!.Indeed there´s a lot of fish species waiting there that we start to work with them. Not considering surgeons and butterflies,which are a bit large for the typical hobbyist tank,after small angels we have many very nice labrid species.Kate and Andy here are spawning them. And then we have hawks,anthias,and more...
