Hi everyone,

First of all, thanks for making this API available—it has been really helpful for exploring fish taxonomy and species data.

I have a question regarding best practices for querying larger datasets. If I need to retrieve information for several hundred species, is it better to issue multiple smaller requests or are there endpoints designed for bulk lookups? I'm trying to avoid unnecessary load while keeping response times reasonable.

Also, are there any recommended rate limits or caching strategies that API users should follow? I didn't find much guidance on this and would like to make sure my application uses the service responsibly.

Thanks in advance for any advice!
