Finding a way to stop exploitation of natural fisheries is alot more economically feasible than your idea of building tanks so large or numerous that they could actually have a significant affect on the world's ocean fish population.

Or are we going to pay for this with a surcharge on our big-government magnetic train windfall?

What are you? A PETA/Sierra Club/Greenpeace whacknut liberal?

The LAST thing I want to do is put natural resources off limits.
Hatcheries are a means of supplementing natural fish reproduction.
Big fish eat little fish.
So you build tanks where you can hatch, protect and raise little fish until they're big enough to have a better chance of survival out in the wild with the big fish.
It's a pretty straightforward suggestion that's not very complicated or expensive.
