Well it seems there's pretty good evidence the sea lice problem at fish farms is bad for wild fish

While the sea lice issue is bad it appears some of the chemicals used to treat them are equally destructive. Who'd have guessed that, huh? Then the government, in collusion with the manufacturer try and suppress any negative comment. I'm guessing because salmon farming is so profitable?
