Actually Gordon, in my experience as an aquaculture consultant, selling
legally bred fish can be very profitable. You obviously need some help. But
with an attitude like...<quote> provided you don't listen to advice from
scientists, hobbyists etc <unquote>.. it is no wonder.

I'm sure that the exchange of information on this list will prove very
valuable to you, if you are prepared to listen, and share what you know.
