Not many bees in the ocean, I'll grant you.

Which raises the question, why is there no aquatic
equivalent of bees? The closest thing are fish that
school, but they don't build hives, don't sting,
and don't make honey. If it makes sense for bees
to do all of that, why are there no fish species
that do that?
