Get the book..."Four Fish" by Paul Greenburg.
It's a great book that talks about Salmon, Bass, Tuna, and Cod.
The author talks about fish farming in detail with both the pros and cons.
It's a great read.

The linked story isn't so great. It omits a few important questions. A few years ago when I had the chance to visit Hubbs for a story, they were planning on using agriculturally derived fish food - plant based. I wonder if this is still the case.

Pollution dispersion is one reason for locating this farm 4 miles offshore. The solution to pollution is dilution - we've all heard that. I'm no scientist - I don't know whether it is defensible. Sounds plausible to me.
