Yellow Assessors Basslets (Assessor flavissimus) have been bred in captivity by ORA before but they’ve recently gotten productive enough to start shipping these to stores. Up until very recently Yellow assessor Basslets were only availabel as wild caught when they were available in the aquarium trade. Most didn’t notice the display, but there were several in the ORA tank shown at MACNA. Ocean Gallery purchased the display and has a limited number of these fish for sale for about $50 each, quite affordable as compared to their $80 or more wil counterparts It’s very exciting that another saltwater fish has been bred in captivity which helps in the sustainability of our hobby.
