Rhinopias Tragedy
(Wiki)Some would travel halfway around the world to get a chance to see and photograph this elusive creature. Many will probably never see one. About 6 years ago I saw a red Rhinopias frondosa on a night dive in Anilao. That was it, my first and last sighting.Just an hour ago, a friend sent me pointing to a forum for Philippine reefs. Therein you could see all sorts of marine life being peddled to aquarium hobbyists, from crustaceans, corals. feather duster worms, to the magnificent Rhinopias everything is for sale. All inexorably doomed to die in fish tanks with no chance of propagating their species. Where do they catch them? What can be done?
