Captive bred fish
 

Hi everyone,

I came across this website (https://www.google.ca/amp/s/relay.na...de-coral-reefs) from national geographic about how wild fish are caught for our aquarium hobby. Basically fish are being poisoned and coral reefs are being destroyed.
I love my aquarium but i want to be responsible for my choices. There is a free app that lists the fish that are good choices (captive bred) versus wild caught in an unhumane way. The app is called “tank watch”. Please download it.
There is also a good documentary about this on youtube. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=A15CDsGkY3Q

As well, we could ask our local fish stores which are captive bred and which are not. And where they are from. Ie. indonesia has poor practice of poisoning their reef.
I was sad to see that one of my fish (six line wrasse) is wild caught. I will not buy anymore fish or coral that are not home or captive bred. Website like Canreef is awesome because we can purchase or trade fish and coral with one another and not take more from the wild.
