Help with sustainable aquaculture essay

[ViktorVaughn]

I started back up with college after about a ten year hiatus and have an English 1020 argument paper to write that needs to be about 15 pages. I have always been fine with writing papers and don't see any problems being able to write a long paper as this hobby is something I am passionate about and papers seem to flow better when its on a topic you enjoy.

This paper needs to be an argument piece in that it depicts a debate showing both sides of the argument while trying to sway the reader to your point of view. The paper needs to have at least 5 sources, preferably more. The sources can be anything from an online publication, print magazine/newspaper, book, scientific journals, etc. The help I am seeking is finding said sources. I just received my online version of the new coral magazine and it has a great article I have browsed about Sea & Reef's clownfish breeding program. So I have one source off the bat to prove my side but I need a bunch of other sources both on the benefits of fish and coral breeding programs and pieces from those opposed to the harvesting of marine life from the ocean. I suppose the sources could also be on freshwater life as well, I just haven't heard much opposition on that front.

Any help with books, articles, videos, or other sources with information on sustainable aquaculture specifically related to the aquarium hobby would be much appreciated!

Research Tridacna Clam aquaculture and you will find some great info. It's pretty interesting. Going from threatened and overfished for food to farming for food and selling the pretty ones to hobbyists. Essentially everyone is now happy. Clam, Dinner Plate and Hobbyist.

I didn't even think to include clam aquaculture but now that I think about it, the subject will provide a plethora of information. Thanks for the advice!
