Farmed fish are fed fishmeal derived from wild catch.

They also destroy the local ecosystems where the farms are positioned. The excessive consumption we're accustomed to is the problem. But good luck stopping that because line must go up exponentially.

They're fed many things, mostly soy pellets, but you're correct they do need some protein supplements.

That's like saying solar panels require plastics from oil therefore they're pointless, we just need to improve the process to minimize wild catch inputs.

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
