Same thing I've been informed of.
No one will be selling farm raised maxima's for at least 6 months or so.

FWIW ORA is pretty much back on track from what I've seen AFA fish go. Still building backup on corals. Their clams come in from the Pacific anyways so the hurricanes didn't really affect the clams from what I understand.
