    I've been researching the captive breeding of Omani Blind Cave Fish (Garra barreimiae) and I found a reference to this species breeding at Assiniboine in 1994 (International Zoo Yearbook, volume 35, page 347).

    Does anyone know about this? I always thought that the only know captive breeding occurred at Chester Zoo in 1991.
