HONOLULU (KHON2) — Two aquarium fishers on the Big Island were fined on Friday relating to an illegal aquarium fishing incident in Kona last year.

Husband and wife, Stephen Howard and Yukako Toriyama, were ordered to pay $272,000 in civil fines for fishing and boating violations that took place in September 2020. These are record fines for these types of violations, according to the DLNR Division of Aquatic Resources.

In September, DLNR Division of Conservation and Resources Enforcement (DOCARE) officers  received a tip that Howard was seen launching his boat from the Honokohau Small Boat Harbor and was fishing within the West Hawaii Regional Fishery Management Area. 

Howard left two female divers in open water during the incident — one of them was Toriyama, DLNR said in news release. The other diver told DOCARE investigators that Howard had dropped them to dive and collect fish, and when they surfaced, his boat was gone.

Howard had been ordered by enforcement officers to return to shore, and when the female divers were not seen, a multi-agency marine search and rescue operation ensued. The search was called off after the women were spotted later that day with their dive gear at a gas station in Kona.

DLNR said the diver helped officers locate the aquarium fish that Howard and Toriyama caught: 235 fish of ten different species. All of the fish were returned to the ocean. 

Howard was fined for sixteen fishing and boating violations. Toriyama was fined for nine Hawaii Administrative Rules (HAR) violations. The total retail value of the fish they collected is estimated at $24,730. Howard and Toriyama are also facing criminal charges in Hawaii District Court.

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post Posted: 05 Jun 2016 12:00 AM PDT With exacting precision, the surgeon inserted the scalpel above the eyeball and cut out a snotty deposit of fatty tissue. The routine eye-lift was nearly complete when suddenly the patient awoke, suffocating, and began to flop about on the table. The audience gasped. Knowing time was of the essence, the surgeon scooped up the patient in his arms, raced across the stage, and dropped her into a tank of water. She revived. Because she was a fish. Yes, fish eye-lifts exist. As do fin jobs and tail tucks. The operating theater was a mall in Jakarta, Indonesia, where a pet expo was under way. As for the patient, she survived, her formerly droopy eyes now bright and perky. A good thing, too, as this was no ordinary goldfish but rather an Asian arowana, the world's most expensive aquarium denizen, rumored to sell for as mu

Reviews: Horrified SeaQuest Aquarium Visitors Tell All | PETA - PETA Reviews: Horrified SeaQuest Aquarium Visitors Tell All | PETA - PETA Posted: 21 Sep 2020 12:00 AM PDT SeaQuest aquariums—which are owned by Vince Covino—are plagued by issues: animal deaths, legal violations, injuries to employees and members of the public from direct contact with animals, and customer reviews that'll make your jaw drop (and not in a good way). So if you've ever considered visiting a SeaQuest location or any other Covino-operated aquarium, do yourself and animals a favor: Learn from these TripAdvisor and Yelp reviewers. At SeaQuest Folsom in California, an otter was apparently whacked with a broom. "This place smells the animals look tortured and starved. I'm not a fan of this place. Took my family and we ran out of there. … We will never go back. Also we saw an employee wack an otter with a broom. … If you love animals you will hate t
