Glad to hear about your interest. It's a great sidebar to the whole reefkeeping hobby for sure. As for your questions....

I'm not the greatest salesman out there so I've not really pushed mty babies off on any particular LFS. I know a lot of the local shop owners here in KY so I've been offloading most of the juvenile fish i have in trade for frozen food. Yup, you heard right, my de-facto motto has become "Will breed for food". I've also traded for fish too. I guess after all the time I put into rearing and raising them there is no joy in selling them. I mean I wouldn't turn away any offers from the local LFS's but it's not my endgame. I breed a few batch of this species or that, trade them off at a steal and move on to a different species.

It's a total win for me since I simply enjoy the process and to be able to have an endless supply of fish food is like a double win!
