The serious decline in the biomass of nearshore water is the result of more than the excessive harvesting of the aquarium trade.  The over harvesting of divers and fishermen have large impacts.  The DLNR needs to step up and get right and make some smart decisions for the future.  We need more protection for our natural resources.  We need more protected areas {MLCD], more enforcement and stricter deterrents, better laws that allow more fish to reproduce, and lots more education for adults and children.  Smart countries protect their natural resources and make lots of money for doing a good job.  We are not so motivated in Hawaii.  Why do we not have several Pupukea and Hanauma Bay MLCDs on Oahu?  The answer is related to leadership and priorities.
