I am surprused this post didn't have more responses.

THank you Jake, and thanks to Biota for this amazing work - I think this is an incredible development. I signed up for updates on your website, and emailed to state that I will commit to keeping you all up to date.

Fingers crossed that I can get one soon!

Hey Jake, do you think we will see Cteno tangs captive bred in the future, for those of us with smaller tanks than are required for Zebramosa?

I think in the future we could see some bristletooth tang, there's a few important species that are on our target list but it's likely a ways out

Any update on these being in stock? Really hoping to get one at the same time as the other tangs I want to add.
