Default Reef collapse

Quinaldine

A colourless liquid used to anaesthetise fish prior to examination or
surgery. It is also sometimes used to catch wild fish, but may be harmful to
the environment. The chemical is the condensation product of aldehyde and
aniline.

It's not just going on in China. It's going on in a lot of areas. Even in
Florida some companies use chemicals to catch fish, and unfortunately it's
even legal (though it's not cyanide, but qualdine[I'm too tired to look up
the spelling]) that is used.

Do you think anyone cares what China does to reef ecosystems ?
If it was our country (US) conservation groups would be up our asses.
This is sad...hunting with dynamite and cyanide ?

Keep buying those Chinese goods. The reefs go first, then us.
