The objective of this approach is to raise awareness among retail stores and aquarium enthusiasts about responsible practices and choices so that this hobby can become as environmentally friendly as possible. If enthusiasts make responsible choices, then the whole marketing chain will be obliged to adapt. Your choices are therefore decisive.
Tropical marine aquariums are often accused of taking part in the destruction of reef ecosystems. Indeed, most marine animals are still caught in the wild, local fishermen lack knowledge about fishing methods and maintenance of animals in captivity. But also, the financial resources for this activity are poorly distributed along the distribution chain and local populations of exporting countries are the most affected.
This is therefore an opportunity for you to contribute to the preservation of coral ecosystems on which your passion totally depends.
