Great article RL,

And they say that that the junk on TV and the movies have no effect on children, right. This is not a soap box statement but a real indictment of human behavior. I've seen it on these boards as well, where if enough people say this or that, then it must be true.

The real villians are the merchant distributors of the aquarium trade. In general, not like the LFS that sharks works with or my LFS here, wholesalers and retailers send thousands of these fish to their deaths in the name of profit. I won't name any large retail pet stores where you can see 20 - 30 hippo tangs in a 40 gallon breeder tank.

We have the opportunity here to dissemenate this information, educate people, and help stem the tide against this holocaust of nature.

Unfortunately this is not the first nor the last time we will see this kind of nonsense. I commend all of you for your well thought out position on this issue and it's great to be associated with all you winners!
