I don't follow you. First you're against wild caught fish and now you're cheering for them? You also just told Marko that people can't possibly catch enough fish with nets for retail sale but one hour later it's possible? A lot have places have abandoned cynide harvesting for netting a long time ago mainly due to the fact that 90% of fish caught in this practice die within 3 weeks and you can't make money selling dead fish. North American, Austrailian and European governments also have laws in place about importing fish caught in what is deemed to be an illegal manner. Hobbiests, LFS, Importers and governments are all doing something to improve sustainable reefs and have been for awhile now. This is not news to anybody in the hobby or trade.

I wonder how these reefs that are millions of years old survived the big climate change only 10,000 years ago known as the ice age? Not having to freeze my a$$ off in the Vancouver area oceans to do some snorkelling would be awsome! I don't think I'm ever going to turn my trucks engine off again.
