Really wish talking about what shrimp see didn't remind me that in farming them females have one eye removed to promote breeding

I am eternally gratefull the practice is forbidden in Europe in organic cultivation. It's one of the small wins that fly under the radar. It's still a long way to people choosing for organic, awareness is the start of every change.
