's reluctance to settle for mullet was clear: mullet much larger, able to play along the coast (which facilitates harvesting), resistant to temperature changes, with respect to the unpretentious food.Another goal was to improve the climate of the seas - mullet was supposed to be a kind of cleaners that have collected at the bottom collects fossils.Within a few years after the experiment (early 90's) fish mullet became a "sea fishing".
