I shoulda specified ocean aqua-culture. I'm all for talapia and
catfish fish farms, so long as they're regulated. Both are
viable and sustainable alternatives. Catfish and talapia are both
herbivore, as opposed to salmon, which is a carnivore and require two
pounds of fish protein per 1 lb of weight gain. Not a good equation.
