"but as many on here know even though I have wild coral, I grow them and sell pieces of them. Which is aquaculture at home. "
That's what BRS is about and the more people we have doing this, eventually we won't need any wild coral.
I thought the initial question was very reasonable and worth asking, if not archiving
From what I have heard over the years, Florida is SUPER strict about how they regulate collection AND they will "throw the book" at anyone caught breaking the rules. You can't take even the slightest chip of rock, and almost everything is off limts except zoas and ricordia. Don't quote me on those particulars, but do take the time to read up on the rules so that if you do collect you don't end up doing time with some crack dealer or pervert
So at the end of the day you care more about that fresh new purple than the life you cost obtaining it? Good to know. For what it's worth, that's a direct contradiction to what BRS stands for.
If only I had a dive license, lol. I'm a free-diver/snorkeler at heart.
New england is one of the best areas in the country to dive.Yeah I know, but I have no interest in diving up here so for $400 I'd rather buy some margaritas and go swimming with a few Dolphins.

At least that's what I found when doing my research.
I tried diving once and nearly had a heart attack trying to breathe out of that restricted tubing. Didn't enjoy not lol plus trying to control boyancy was tough for me. Idk, couldn't get the hang of it.
