We have the willing broodstock and field equipment, who wants to help pay to buy ?real Mollies?

Since a few of us were just talking about the history and likely origin of our aquarium based sup-species, I think we should start a fundraiser to buy at least a few dozen snails and some stock "mollies" from the regions they are native to and breed them, establish a stock of "real mollies". I have a friend with multiple ponds that would be able to support that population, and I have a collections equipment and the experience to make the trip to the gulf and do the collections. I've done it successfully for reptiles and amphibians in the past and have those permits. <br><br>If there's enough interest I can start working on the permits after the holidays and I will be able to make it a business write off if we can get it done by tax season.
