| The AMDA Ecolist is a comprehensive database of the requirements of
marine fishes in our trade, setting a standard for AMDA members to use. The original
database was compiled by means of a detailed survey completed by AMDA members in 1996. Fish are graded on a scale of 1 to 5
as follows:
- BEGINNER
- INTERMEDIATE SKILL REQUIRED
- REEF ONLY
- ADVANCED SKILL REQUIRED
- REQUIREMENTS UNKNOWN
The AMDA encourages use of the Ecolist as a method of
labeling fishes in our stores. Fishes can be priced or labeled identifying them
according to the five categories listed above.
Fish that are considered impossible (at this time) to keep
in captivity should not be carried in our stores, unless requested by an advanced customer
for research. |
