I keep a reef tank in my house. In order to stock it I have to go to the fish store and buy fish that were caught on reefs around the world, these fish usually have a 90% fatality rate before they even reach the consumer and during the take they usually use cyanide or other nasty methods that aren't good for our reefs. Does anybody have any experience either in the states or internationally with collecting small reef fish or inverts and bringing them home. I have heard about special permits in hawaii, but does anybody else have additional info.
