    I see no mention of what their fish are eating. One issue with farming carnivorous fish is that they need fish to eat and often that comes from fish pellets which are generally small fish caught in the ocean. So fish farming such as this ends up not really farming at all, but rather turning wild fish into farmed fish.

    Farmers lie. Animal products are wasteful, toxic, and environmentally damaging. Eat fucking plants.

        How does aquaponics solve the profit-motivated cruelty and violence against thinking, feeling creatures?

          It doesn’t necessarily, but you’ll notice you mentioned nothing about animal cruelty in the post I responded to. Moreover, aquaponics can be done with ornamental fish.

          Don’t get upset with other people if your message isn’t clear, or correct.

          I wish we could eat the vegans. Most of you are dumber and more irritating that fish, and it’d reduce your carbon footprint being dead.
