Video Text: Tropical fish aquaculture can help save the reefs by providing a more ecologically friendly product. A fish that is grown in captivity is a much better product--it's more hardy, it associates people with food, it has lived its entire life in a captive environment. In contrast, the wild coral fish are often skittish, and they come in with diseases or parasites.
