In light of the recent “they’re all doomed to extinction” remark I think this was a little optimistic. But it does seem like if they were seen in stores more often, they would become as popular and common as other popular fish that also are demanding for the aquarist. And the fish room setup that they require, this is probably appealing to people, like a greenhouse is, and since people are becoming conscious of being “green” in general, maybe. Looking at things in an ecological way is great when you have ambassadors for it in the form of peat swamp fish that are beautiful and interesting. Planted peat swamp tanks appeal to a certain wavelength of thought.
