When I was 14...I used to SCUBA Dive with friends off of Coney Island. The Jetties were loaded with Butterfly Fish! I tried to keep them in captivity, but I couldn't get the knack of acclimating them to higher temperatures of my aquarium! Chaedoton capistratus and sedentarius!
Next summer, if you can catch a few of these for me, I would start a new reef aquarium for these semi local fish!
It’s cool to see fish that colorful in an otherwise bland environment
That's cool! I didn't know that they can't swim back south and end up dying. That blue angelfish is beautiful.
Ever see any barracuda? When I was a kid I caught a juvenile cuda in NJ. Very cool video thank you.
