Cyanide study

[Baldguy]

Interesting study just published. Less than 15% of aquarium fish are caught suing cyanide. I had thought it might be more.

They also were only focused on species lkely to be collected from Indonesia and the Philippines, supposed cyanide 'hot beds'. However, it's just 1 study of very limited scope.

True. They mention that collection areas such as Hawaii and the Carribean would likely have 0% use of cyanide.

While I'd love the number to be zero, I'd have thought it was higher.
