Typo. You meant $10,000. (5000x2)

I'm trying to understand why fish is any different than other goods. Is it different for a particular reason? Wouldn't this type of behavior be the same whether its cars, electronics, dogs, cats, etc? Or is there a fundamental difference between fish and the rest of the goods? I mean, I'm a bit confused as to why Vancouver as a city is being blamed for the fall of the tropical fish industry in cities outside Vancouver but other industries are unaffected. What is it about fish in Vancouver that is so unique that it doesn't follow basic Economic principles?
