Ms, message to the Committee: Aloha Chair Wille and AWES Committee Member,,
Mahalo for the opportunity!
I support Bill 318 protecting Hawaii's reef wildlife from harmful
aquarium trade starvation and insufficient water volume during
shipping. Mahalo, Chair Wille for helping
the abusiveness.

1 would rather have commercial taking of our reef fishes
banned altogether. The tourist come to see all our fishes,
there is never enough. Back in the 1970's there were a lot more
colorful fishes everywhere. Every year now I'm seeing less and less.
'.I surf in the ocean every week, and lately I hardly see any.
The tourist it our main income for Hawaii. I love how Palau
stop commercial fishing. Saying if they run out of fishes, they
will not have tourist coming.
