    Subject: [roatan] TO THE FISH COLLECTOR


    Maybe you do not care about preservation or ecology. Why not
    collect
    from the Florida Keays? Because you can't. The US has taken measures to
    protect the reefs so why would you want to attempt to rape those of
    Roatan?
    For some real good collecting go to Jacksonville Florida Or South
    Georgia
    where Lionfish, yes I said Lionsish have become quite abundant and the
    local
    marine biologists are more than happy to see the erradicated because
    they
    are a non native species. Why would you want to collect fish from an
    Island
    that has already had so many environmental issues? There are plenty of
    farm
    raised of just about any tropical you are looking for. What is it you
    hope
    to collect? Maybe we can help you find a fish store with the same fish
    for a
    lot less than a plane ticket to Roatan.

    Seriously, it just doesn't seem right to take the fish from the beautiful
    coral reefs to a fish tank at home. take some pictures, snorkel. dive, go to your
    local pet store. leave the fish where they belong.
