This study estimated the size of ornamental fish market as the basis survey for the development of the ornamental fish industry in Korea. It presents improvement projects agendas for the development of the Korean ornamental fish industry by investigating the challenges of the ornamental fish industry and consumer awareness. First, looking at the size of the ornamental fish market, calculated on the basis of survey results, the size of ornamental fish market is analysed as 231.8 billion won. The actual ornamental fish market is presumed to be much larger than this considering unclear gross sales from e-commerce and group sales, goods excluded from the ornamental fish export, expensive ornamental fish transaction from smuggling are missing. Ornamental fish industry and consumer awareness survey results can be described as follows: First, revenue structure of the ornamental fish market depends on a handful of expensive purchasing group rather than on low-cost consumption group. Second, many members of the ornamental fish producers, wholesalers, road shops are small-scale. Third, the sale of aquarium fish and aquarium fish related supplies in road shop have different market structures. Fourth, ornamental fish consumption is in the ongoing recession. Fifth, ornamental fish industry hopes for expansion of distribution and Research & Development. Sixth, satisfaction of ornamental fish consumers is generally low. As described above, ornamental fish industry in Korea are vulnerable in the market structure and industry is small and the consumer's satisfaction degree is staying in the 'normal' level. If current state will continue, future consumption can be reduced. It is necessary to increase the competitiveness by using various method including reorganization of the structure of the ornamental fish industry even though it is hard to reach conclusion only with the results of the survey.

2004년 9월 해마가 서식하는 자연수역에서는 왕관해마 Hippocampus coronatus (1.2%)와 산호해마 H. mohnikei (1.9%) 2종의 해마를 포함하여 모두 4목 8과 11종 161마리의 어류가 함께 서식하고 있는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그 중에서 우점종은 복섬(Takifugu niphobles)으로 전체의 30.4%를 차지하였고, 해마의 포식자로 알려진 감성돔(Acanthopagrus schlegeli)과 농어(Lateolabrax japonicus), 점농어(Lateolabrax maculatus)의 비율은 각각 0.6, 5.6, 11.8%를 차지하였다. 그리고 각 조사 정점에서 출현한 왕관해마와 산호해마의 평균밀도는 $1,000\;m^2$당 0.96개체 그리고 0.97개체였으며 각 정점별 밀도에 차이를 관찰할 수 없었다(P>0.05).
