      Respond to the following prompt with a topic post of approximately  300 words by 11:59 pm on Tuesday. By 11:59 pm on Wednesday, respond with  at least two comments  on the forum. In the second section of Four Fish, Greenberg introduces us to European Sea Bass and chronicles the challenges of growing this species in captivity.   Using Francis Galton's criteria to help decide which species are suitable for domestication (hint see page 89) briefly compare and contrast Atlantic salmon and Sea Bass as good candidates for aquaculture. Ultimately, do you think these species pass the 'test' on being good candidates for aquaculture?

      In this final forum post of the semester we circle back to where we started and think about the health of the world's fisheries. By 11:59 pm on Wednesday, respond with  at least two comments  on the forum. In this post ca. 300 word post, please do two things:
      1. propose a novel hashtag # that you might use to sum up your thoughts about the current state of fisheries (e.g., are we fishing down foodwebs, shifted our baselines, learned from past mistakes, rebuilding, etc...).
      2. Briefly explain why you've chosen the hashtag you propose, making at least one connection to the reading of Billion Dollar Fish to this point (through page 138)
