yeah, us humans kinda screw up pretty much everything around us, we all contribute, I guess some people just have to convice themselves that what they are doing isn't bad....but the truth is...it all is kinda. even everything I do....some people are just fine with doing some "damage" and hopefully they respect the things they are affecting and do it with at least the least damage they feel right. haha, I wish I knew of some secret spot in chicago where I can scoop up some plecos! haha
 
haha! Well... My Green Peace friends, the eel was sold 2 hours after I posted! A college kid in Florida that has 7 of them and is going to try to breed them bought it from me this morning. FYI I caught it last night and it took 2 of us using scuba equipment to get it. My partner held the lights while I used a prodder to coax it out of the coral. Then when it came out I netted it with a hand net from Walmart. It almost bit my partner, hehehe.... Dragon morays have not yet been successfully captive bred so wild caught is the only way to get them and they are very shy during the daytime so night is the best time to collect them. I realize that people are strapped for cash this time of year so I made the price cheap, but come December the price will go up to $850 shipped since the weather gets nasty down here making collections difficult and risky.
 
I dont understand why people on here make comments like "should have left....." this is a website for us who enjoy the hobby. If you want to get really pickey we should completely shut down all our aquariums and set everything free back into the water where it came from wild caught or captive bread since a fish tank of any size cant compare to the ocean, lake, river, stream, etc... I have my tank for my enjoyment!!
 
I agree, we all do things that may not be "perfect" blah blah, thats really cool how you catch them, I've been trying to get into saltwater but I dont have the motivation or money right now.

let me give you some motivation then... You know when your fish die for one reason or another and you are feeling bad and just wanna give up? And then you go to figure out how your going to dispose of the body of your dead pet.... Just keep in mind--- saltwater fish taste WAY BETTER than freshwater fish ;)
That's Hawaiian style cuz! No waste the good kine fish taste! Pan fried emperator angelfish and broiled dragon moray taste so good.... Broke da mouth!

Where were you when I needed them, EXCELLENT price. Drop me a email if you collect a smaller one tfla@optonline.net. One of my Monster tanks

Wow!!! Is that 3 dragons in that tank? Your crazy! In any case, the next time I get one---especially if it is smaller-- the price will be $850 shipped. You still going to be interested?
 
Wow, that is a great price! I paid $400 U.S. for a 15" Mexican Dragon Fish (he's about 24" now). The Hawaiian Dragon would cost $1200 here in Manitoba, Canada. Someone is going to get a great deal.
