![]() I saw this as well. Looks like it will be interesting to watch for sure. Gives you an inside look at the commercial aquarium business first hand on the distributer's side.
I can't really see the clown fish being in danger from the aquarium industry... but lets watch to see if we can make sense of what they say!

![]() yes I was thinking the same because in the USA and Canada there are quite a few companies breeding them but what about other countries? Maybe they simply pick them from the wild?
we'll see. Of course it would be easy to re-introduce them in the wild from captive bred stock if it was the case because they are so easily bred. But yes it should be interesting to watch. Quote:

![]() I think it's just bologna. There isn't that many people with saltwater aquariums in the world that it would cause a fish to become extinct.
Look at tuna for example; almost everyone in the world eats tuna, and it's nowhere near extinction. I think the expression "there's plenty of fish in the sea" literally holds true |

![]() Clown finish are in danger but not from the industry. They are in danger because the oceans of the world absorb Alot of carbon dioxide making the water acidic. Studys have shown that clown fish loose the ability to navigate and also loose the ability to host anenome. Also at the same time in these acidic waters inverts such as sea stars litterly fall apart

![]() +1, the earth has been around a lot longer than we have, with many species going extinct long before we showed up. It's like global warming, we measure temperatures for a hundred years, notice it's going up, and say it's because of us. What about the other million's of years?

This was an article in Science now for May of 2003, there are 1000's of articles with countless hours of study put into them all detailing vastly similar results. Do yourself a favor and go do some scholarly searches on the topic prior to posting garbage like this. Ignorance is bliss and it also happens to be highly contagious. Quote:
