Shark tank on Nat Geo last night

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
So matt did they end up putting some WTR in there or what other types, how many of them etc or what are their plans for it as far as sharks go
 
I like the show i just hate how they take fish/sharks from the wild and put them in a tank. Most people hate how strict florida is on fishing rules. I love to eat shark and other fish but to pull a fish from the wild and put in a tank just isnt right.

The thing with sw fish is that majority of them are caught in the wild. Yes, there are quite a few that are cb like clowns and cardinals but, majority are wc

i know most are wild caught. its just the us is the only country that regulations seem to matter. when it comes to most eastern countries helping towards eliminating most breeds of marine life.
 
So, you're saying your against keeping wild caught fish in tanks but for catching, killing and eating them?

Catching killing and eating is kinder to the animal in a lot of cases. The earliest known cooked dinner was a shellfish dinner on the shores of Africa.

Especially SW to me, since fw fish are used to smaller habitat id feel terrible knowing something I bought knew the freedom of the open ocean and is now stuck in a glass box

what about all the Tanganyika and Malawi chichlids? 18000 and 8000 cubic kilometers is a bit bigger than a fish tank? what about all the migratory catfish that normally travel hundreds of kilometers?

Freshwater fish might be used to "smaller" spaces but not use to outright small ones ( aside from maybe Bettas ). Plus there wouldn't be any captive bred fish if somebody hadn't taken their ancestors from the wild.

I'm not even going to touch the whole "stick a hook in a fishes mouth and effectively torture them before you kill and eat them" bit.

P.S I'm not against fishing, just trying to make a point.
