I don’t really think so Bang it does not have that prototypical flat and cup shaped shells of an oyster. But one never knows. BTW I was going to PM you. Have you ever read Cardinal Directions: The Story of the Banggai Cardinalfish. By Ret Talbot.
Cardinal Directions: The Story of the Banggai Cardinalfish - In the summer of
2012,Talbot travelled to Indonesia and spent a month researching that
country's aquarium trade and, specifically, the trade in the Banggai
cardinal fish as part of a Project conceived by CORAL Magazine
editor-and-chief James Lawrence. As an embedded journalist with an
international team of scientists studying the fish in its endemic range,
Talbot got an insider's view of a species that is, in many ways,
emblematic of marine aquarium fisheries and the trade in marine ornamental
animals. Whether you're interested in reef conservation, marine aquaria, dive
travel, or breeding these beautiful fish, Talbot's talk on his experience in
Indonesia will provide plenty of food for thought, as well as some great
stories and stunning images from one of the world's premiere reef ecosystems.
Talbot and his wife, Karen Talbot (who provided scientific illustrations for
the book), will both be signing copies of their newly published book at the
event.
He will one of the speakers at my clubs 2013 reef conference.
