I'm not in any of those countries, but in this part of New York State, there are a number of fish farms that keep the sport fish populations in local lakes from being depleted. I support the idea, as well as farming commercially-valuable fish. It's a lot easier to track populations than it is for wild fish.

Here are my thoughts:

The plains of Alberta are filled with dry land Salmon. dry land means without water, trained and bred to live without water. It is fish ranching at it's best. I loved to help my uncle round up the 15,000 salmon and get them ready for market.

Fish farming should be banned in all countries.It produces very unhealthy fish for they are in a concentrated area and are poisoned by the feces that is concentrated beneath their habitat.I only eat fish that is caught in the wild.Farm fish are virtually swimming in a septic tank of filth.

I don't like farm raised fish. The taste and quality is not the same as those that are caught in the wild. Salmon is the worst!!! Yuck.

Fine with me.

There may be disputes about the quality of farmed fish, however I am very supportive of fish farming. Particuarly for a fish such as cod, which is endangered in many parts. Fish farming produces a sustainable stock of fish. I would rather we didn't fish our fish into oblivion than have something a little more, although I have never noticed a difference (and actually the best cod I ever had in my life was from a sustainable farm in Scotland), tasty.

It seems like one good thing is it will protect the fish from ingesting harmful toxins to be passed on to the eaters.
