@@MarylandNature There are hundreds of highly qualified Master fish breeders in our area who are fully prepared to raise thousands of these fish with extreme detail for the genetics involved. Why are they not being included? This would provide more than enough animals to replenish the population. The National Aquarium, of which I am a founding Board of Directors official, is not capable of providing what concerned and qualified aquarists can accomplish.
Has a captive breeding operation been created for the blackbanded sunfish?
The presentation goes over efforts including plan for captive breeding in partnership with the National Aquarium.
