Table S1 - A Critical Assessment of Marine Aquarist Biodiversity Data and Commercial Aquaculture: Identifying Gaps in Culture Initiatives to Inform Local Fisheries Managers

Demographic and survey questions asked of responding hobbyists. Multiple-choice restricted and text-box questions asked of the hobbyist (%, n = 314) to ascertain basic demographic information of the responding hobbyists and to assess their personal reasons for: keeping an aquarium and the geographical region/species on which it is based; the most important factors are when buying a new aquarium animal using a rating scale; preferences for a “sustainable” aquarium trade and the perceived view of the future of the industry.
