RE: online fish and egg listing

Hi Gary

Lots of cichlids, rainbows, and liverbearers have them.  You usually don't
get fish with location codes unless you are into that kind of fish.  People
are even starting to collect GPS location on the fish they collect!

They are very useful to people who want to maintain pure populations of wild
type fish.

Best fishes
