The funny thing is, the Aquarium trade is going to be the one that repopulated the fish in the ocean, when all the coral reefs and fish die because of global warming.

There were so many yellow tangs when I went to Hawaii over the summer. I wanted to take one home.

Anything really.

Yeah I may be wrong but doesn’t the Aquarium trade take up less than half a percent of any fish from the wild? Maybe even

 

[cdemoss01]

unsure...

 

[Reef Devils]

95 to 99 percent of marine (or saltwater) fish in the aquarium trade are collected from the wild.

Yes, but where does that 95 to 99% fall in to the wild. That 99% of Aquarium trade. May only be 0.0001% of wild fish for the aquarium trade
