The way to end this is not by captive breeding, but of ending the aquarium “business”. Animals are not decor. They’re sentient beings entitled to live their lives without human interference. As with animal agriculture, if there’s no demand there’s no need for a supply. Stop buying cruelty. #GoVegan
