"ah, you missed my point."


I certainly did. Could you please state it again.



"true - but the US imports more than 90% of all ornamental fish/corals in the world according to MAC and other sources... which in itself places a lot of responsibility of the causes of collection practices."


I agree. Rather than demand low prices like many hobbyists, I look for sustainable collection practices. It costs me more, but tends to be more beneficial in the long run.


"sigh, your knowledge of the world and human behavior is extensive I see"

It sure is. I've spent many years traveling abroad. The similarities between otherwise polar opposite cultures is sometimes fascinating. You really can't learn this stuff by reading about it.



"If you look beyond the surface and silos you'll have your answer =)"


You lost me here.
