 Aquarium's tropical fish come from unlikely waters - The Boston Globe
Every fall, New England Aquarium volunteers dive for tropical fish -- not off a Caribbean reef -- but in the dark waters off Rhode Island and Martha's Vineyard, normally home to the dark-colored cod.
The New England Aquarium has relied on its local dive club for more than a decade to find tropical fish -- allowing the museum to focus on other species when its researchers travel to the Caribbean to collect fish.
The aquarium puts the tiny fish into a ''Southern visitors" tank until they grow to the size of a quarter or a half-dollar.
