Default Coral Import ban ?

CITES exists to protect endangered species which include some coral and fish.
The Government of Fiji failed to comply with the result that imports from Fiji are prohibited or have been threatened with prohibition (don't know.)
It is pretty certain that in the near term unless some things are done to improve how our industry operates, either total bans or bans on some species will ocurr.
Luckily we can trade frags amongst us and ,there is a heightened interest in captive raised fish as well.
