I have been reading the articles on this subject and I have seen all three methods discussed. I want to raise from a captive bred pair and as we know they are the more costly choice, but zero impact on the environment. If me getting 5 individuals is the easiest method, then I will take that path. I want to be sure of a direction and stick with it as I will have to do the ordering of the individuals online (no LFS stores care these as captive bred) As with my false percs, I won't support wild caught anymore and that is all they will deal with because of cost savings to them and the ability to move the fish with lower prices. Except for the live rock that I have had for 15 years, most everything has come from frags or from captive breeding. But I digress.....I am guessing that if I start with 5 BC's then remove the remaining 3. I could end up with another pair coming from the remaining 3 and end up with a loner. BUt I would guess that this would be a rare occurrance.

Thanks for the tips,
Rich
