Biggest problem is many species we have no idea how they even breed or to sex them.
Both the pet and food fisheries do damage and both need to be slowed if you ask me. I grew up in an area with alot of Tuna at one point, and other fish.
Due to over fishing the fishery is gone, the tuna is gone, as are many species of sharks and other fish who relied on the tuna.
Nonnative Wildlife Invasion Prevention Act HR 669 could cause a major hit to the pet and aquarium trade. Similar bills have failed in the past, but eventually one will get through. Its only a matter of time.
