Well for me, I feel if we are gonna yank them out of the sea, I should do my very best to give them a decent life in captivity. I have read opposing views about fish lifespans, but believe that a fish can live longer in captivity with the proper care. Some people just don't care, kind of like all the cat haters out there, or folks that consider "pets" as less than pets. I know I'll catch heat for this, but I would consider them part of our family.
