If this is what aquarist clubs are really interested in I applaud their
efforts. However, since fish are their focus I'm not sure how important they
feel it is to save insect or crustean that may unique to a particular species
diet in the wild. There may be some unique natural complex or characteristic
of environment that ensures a particular species survival "in situ". If we
are not protecting the whole complex and only saving the species the animal
is reduced to a curiosity, a rare on but, a much reduced one.
Just a thought...
