 Fish farming - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fish farming is the principal form of aquaculture, while other methods may fall under mariculture.
Critics say that fish farms generate high levels of disease and parasites that infect wild fish stocks inhabiting water near the farms.
Supporters of fish farms argue that sea lice are a naturally occurring species, and that they are found naturally on wild salmon, sticklebacks, and herring.

 Factory Farming - Seafood Production
The quantity of farm-raised fish has doubled over the past decade and is "one of the fastest growing food producing sectors," according to the United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).
As the water pours through, fish who have survived the ordeal of "harvest" and transportation die of suffocation.
An FDA Veterinarian article explains that fish farmers "use chemicals as disinfectants and to kill bacteria; herbicides to prevent the overgrowth of vegetation in ponds; vaccines to fight certain diseases; and drugs - usually combined in the feed - to treat diseases and parasites."

 Fish - general info
In winter it remains in the deep waters of the Bay, but in the warmer seasons it clings to shoreline areas, swimming in schools and feeding on zooplankton.
Between the 1930s and the 1980s, domestic and agricultural pollution increased water turbidity and phytoplankton production, which caused vast acres of submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) to decline, thus reducing habitat and nesting areas for juveniles of many fish species.
The only catadromous species in the Bay ecosystem is the American eel, or Anguilla rostrata, which leaves its habitat in the Bay to spawn in the Sargasso Sea.
