Well... what would you do if the Packard foundation locked you up in a box so everyone could watch your every move... and you didn't have any arms or legs or a knife, rope, or gun, and holding your breath wasn't an option...

Looks like he took the easy way out.   

Judging how far tuna migrate during their lives laterally and horizontally through the water column, it was only a matter of time.

Sad.... I just hope they got some good sashimi off of it.

Pelagic traveler trapped in a fish tank eating food prepped by the aquarium staff.....probably not the best tasting sashimi.

You're probably right.  I was thinking the confinement might make the muscle more tender.  That's the way they do kobe beef.

Probably tastes bad just like farmed salmon do.  They probably feed them vegan fish food that makes the fish taste like soy-vomit...
