Hi, i have been researching the breeding of fish and inverts the last few weeks and was wondering the following with regards to NSW and Ready Mix
this in not a flame, but something i want to learn and get opinions about
since we are striving to keep as natural systems as possible for the inmates and since most species of fish are not from our waters, what is the impact of using natural sea water? yes we acclimatize them to our systems and for those that can get nsw use it, but would using synthetic salt be any different with regards to the "naturalness" of the system. i know some species of fish, cardinals, clowns etc breed in captive setups but lets say we try Yellow Tangs, i am thinking that because we use water not from their natural habitat it could be a factor in them not spawning.
been reading an article on the breeding of flame angels in hawaii and was thinking that if we as reefers put pressure on manufacturers that we can get diff salt types, pacific, indo etc to make our systems more real
please comment
