Don’t look down. Explosive underwater shock waves are rupturing right below us. The practice of blast fishing is illegal yet happens every day in many countries of the world. Dynamite is dropped into a coral reef where the explosion bursts the bladder of fish leaving the majority dead at the bottom of the ocean while an insignificant number float to the top which are actually used. These blasts not only kill an unnecessary number of fish but also destroy the underlying habitat of coral reefs where the fish live and grow. One beer bottle size bomb can leave a rubble crater of about 1 to 2 meters in diameter, killing 50 to 80 percent of coral in that area. It can take hundreds of years for a coral reef to rebuild after being reduced to rubble by the cruel fisherman turning our beautiful ocean into an Explocean. facts from www.coral.org
