Transportation
To get this regency, you can fly by MERPATI from palu (The capital of Central Sulawesi) or by bus to Luwuk and then by boat or sheep to get Banggai.
My reason is that when the banggais are juvenile and not sexually mature they will school together.
I had repeatedly tried to isolate freshly impregnated males and found that within a day or 2 after capture that they are no longer holding eggs, so I assume that the swallowing of the eggs is a stress response and/or a protective measure.
Yes this is the most common problem I encounter with Banggais, its a lip tear and subsequent fungal infection.
Banggai cardinals are excellent aquarium fish, and appear to get along with most other tank inhabitants (remember they will eat shrimp, and small fish).
I assume since banggais are a marine fish captured from the wild that they are susceptible to all marine aquarium ailments, but I have been fortunate in this regards as to only experience 3 problems which have been common to banggais.
As the weeks progressed the larger banggai babies would out compete their siblings, and fish would die due to starvation, this was a common problem which I would remedy by removing the larger babies.
