I think that this is the right time to invest in more and better ways to breed marine fish. Would be great to someday have captive bred marine fish available for all of the popular species of fish currently being collected.

Our oceans are already suffering in a huge way and many coral reefs are already at the brink of devastation. We need to find ways to repair our oceans and increase the types and availability of captive bred marine fish.Emmeline Marie Suzanne Burritt says:
