Hi, ive always thought about this when buying wild bichirs, and i was wondering if any of you knew how the fish keeping hobby of these exotic fish effects their wild populations. I dont think its as bad as arowanas used to be and still are, but they certainly are decreasing are they not? Wouldnt it just be better to always go for CB fish to preserve their natural ecosystem? I know this is a bit subjective because im sure the natives over there probably eat the lower jaw species as a delicacy but idk i feel like its detrimental.
Not judging anyone at all, i just have always been curious about this.
