Hi, my name is Ann Marie and I'm a rescuer.
I know I'm not supposed to be a rescuer and it try not to do it to often but sometimes I just can't help it. So far, the blueberry gorgonian, a black sun coral, and a orange sun coral.
I love the ocean and the creatures in it and it hurts me to see when those animals aren't cared for properly. I went to a LDS not long ago and saw 10 small seahorses in a tank with peppermint shrimp. They claimed they were captive bread but couldn't tell me the breed. They were also $40 each. I went in about a two weeks later and I could see the dead bodies that the shrimp were now eating. I got mad and said something on my way out.
This week I was in a different LDS that had 2 seahorses. I asked him what kind they were. He said that he wasn't sure but they were captive raised from Hawaii. They were about $40 each. I asked if they were eating frozen mysis. He said that they were and that I would be hard pressed to find wild caught horses for sale anymore. I just snorted and walked out.
Do these people really believe the crap that they are spouting or are they think that everyone is stupid?
