As a generally statement I agree. But there are noticeable differences the further you go down the f#.

When the king speaks people listen, Geoff wrote this:

"The Pros - Number 1 and most important when getting Wild Caught fish is the genetic diversity. You will get a wide range of color both good and bad, and the proper shape. You want to maintain a breeding stock that is as diverse as possible. In aquaria you will be lucky to have 1-3 males breeding with about 5-6 females all the time. The rest will stay in the huddled masses for the most part. So it’s very critical to maintain genetic diversity in your breeding stock. I have seen too many times what bad breeding has done to these fish. The fish look like they are supposed to, they have not been tampered with by man."

Not to mention helping depleting the natural wild stocks...:P
