Yup...you guessed it obediah

IMO the basic advancements we have come up up with are:
1. the WWW in the sharing of information
2 Understanding of the requirements of these animals
3.Better understanding of an enclosed aquatic environment
4. Technological methods to manufacture products for #1 and aid in #2
5. Compared to the 80's, increase in international trade
This leads to (no specific order of importance):
1. Proper handling and transportation
2. Expedient export/import
3. Lighting
4. Supplements (nutritional and chemical) to help the animals thrive
5. Importance of partial water changes
It's a great hobby that many enjoy. It keeps me out of trouble and a great substitute for TV
