It's methods like these and seeing the destruction in person while diving in the philippines the last couple years that made me decide to sell my fish back to the store and pass them on to other members here.
Will be buying captive grown for future purchases.
You should see the damage to reefs from dynamite fishing!

Not reef safe.

Another method is when they cruise around the reefs and slam a big plunger into the water making a pop and big splash which stuns the fish... Easy peesy

That's awful most of my fish I made sure were net couggts and the clowns bread I think we have one wrass not sure how they got it

I thought they were catching fish with big nets and then 1 guy with smaller nets stay in the middle where the other bring the net to the center. I think that's how they catch schooling fishes.

That's the term net cought

Did you notice in the video the very precise measurement of the cyanide used! Ya me neither these catching methods are the reason I try and buy only net caught or tank raised fish. I knew they darted mandarians, that thing they spear them with in the video looks pretty big for that little fish, how can that not damage them for life. Probably the reason that most of them have a short life span I think. ( to both these methods )
