    Not just you... or clownfish.

    Maryland DNR recently ended their effort to restock western county streams with native trout. Farm-raised fish seemed to have an extremely dismal survival rate in the wild; further tests showed they had lost their instinct to hunt live food, reproduce naturally, and avoid predation. That was quite a shock to me. :eek:
